Аннотация

BACKGROUND: Anaphylaxis has been increasing in recent years, with common triggers in infants being milk and eggs. Currently, the mainstay of treatment for milk and/or egg allergy is strict avoidance. Recently, new therapies have emerged including stepwise introduction of allergens via a ladder approach. The suitability of infants for the ladders is debated.

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to focus on the use of food ladders in children with anaphylaxis to egg or milk.

METHODS: Retrospective review of pediatric patients diagnosed with immunoglobulin E-mediated milk and/or egg allergy between 2011 and 2021. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied. Anaphylaxis was defined as per the World Allergy Organization-amended criteria 2020. Data analysis utilized SPSS Version 28.

RESULTS: We reviewed 1,552 patient charts, and excluded 1,094, leaving a total sample size of 458. Seventy infants had anaphylaxis at diagnosis (milk n = 36; egg n = 34). A range of 77.8% to 85.2% of infants with anaphylaxis successfully completed the ladder, 88.9% to 92.9% without anaphylaxis were successful. Children who successfully completed the ladder did so at similar rates. A range of 20.6% to 50% children presenting with anaphylaxis at diagnosis experienced allergic symptoms during treatment, compared with 17.3% to 40.7% without anaphylaxis. Reactions were mild, mostly cutaneous and not requiring medical attention. Patients experiencing allergic symptoms while on the ladder were less likely to successfully complete treatment.

CONCLUSIONS: Milk and egg ladders are a safe and effective way of inducing tolerance in infants, including those with a history of anaphylaxis at diagnosis. There are no obvious predictors for who will experience allergic reactions while on the ladder; however, these children are less likely to complete the ladder, so parents should be educated in management of mild allergic reactions at home.
