Stinging ants represent a wide range of over 200 different species across the world, of which Solenopsis, Myrmecia, Pogonomyrmex, and Brachyponera genera account for a substantial economic and healthcare burden. S. invicta (red imported fire ant [IFA]) and M. pilosula (jack jumper ant [JJA]) are 2 species of high clinical importance, known to cause anaphylaxis in humans, with numerous reported fatalities. Diagnostic testing should be performed in patients with a history of a systemic reaction with skin testing and/or in vitro specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) testing. In vitro testing is commercially available for IFA through whole-body extract specific IgE and JJA venom-specific IgE, but not widely available for other stinging ant species. Commercial venom component testing for IFA and JJA is currently not available. Patients with a clinical history and positive specific IgE testing should undergo treatment with specific immunotherapy, which is currently available for IFA and JJA. Buildup may be performed using conventional, semi-rush, rush, or ultra-rush schedules with similar risk profiles for IFA. Optimal duration for whole=body extract immunotherapy for IFA and specific JJA venom immunotherapy is not well studied, but generally recommended for at least 3 to 5 years. Sting challenges are used in research settings, primarily to assess treatment efficacy of immunotherapy.
蛰蚁种类繁多,在全世界有 200 多个不同的种类,其中 Solenopsis、Myrmecia、Pogonomyrmex 和 Brachyponera 属造成了巨大的经济和医疗负担。S.invicta(进口红火蚁;IFA)和 M.pilosula(跳蚁;JJA)是临床上非常重要的两个物种,已知可导致人类过敏性休克,并有多起死亡报告。对于有全身反应史的患者,应通过皮肤测试和/或体外特异性 IgE 测试进行诊断检测。通过全身提取物(WBE)特异性-IgE 和 JJA 毒液特异性-IgE,可对 IFA 进行商业体外检测,但对其他蛰蚁物种的体外检测并不普遍。目前还没有针对 IFA 和 JJA 的商业毒液成分检测。有临床病史且特异性-IgE检测呈阳性的患者应接受特异性免疫疗法治疗,目前已有针对IFA和JJA的特异性免疫疗法。可采用常规、半急速、急速或超急速计划进行增量治疗,其风险情况与 IFA 相似。针对 IFA 和特定 JJA 毒液的 WBE 免疫疗法的最佳持续时间尚未得到充分研究,但一般建议至少持续 3-5 年。蜇伤挑战用于研究环境,主要用于评估免疫疗法的疗效。

Accurate identification of allergy-eliciting stinging insect(s) is essential to ensuring effective management of Hymenoptera venom-allergic individuals with venom-specific immunotherapy. Diagnostic testing using whole-venom extracts with skin tests and serologic-based analyses remains the first level of discrimination for honeybee versus vespid venom sensitization in patients with a positive clinical history. As a second-level evaluation, serologic testing using molecular venom allergens can further discriminate genuine sensitization (honeybee venom: Api m 1, 3, 4, and 10 vs yellow jacket venom/Polistes dominula venom Ves v 1/Pol d 1 and Ves v 5/Pol d 5) from interspecies cross-reactivity (hyaluronidases [Api m 2, Ves v 2, and Pol d 2] and dipeptidyl peptidases IV [Api m 5, Ves v 3, and Pol d 3]). Clinical laboratories use a number of singleplex, oligoplex, and multiplex immunoassays that employ both extracted whole-venom and molecular venom allergens (highlighted earlier) for confirmation of allergic venom sensitization. Established quantitative singleplex autoanalyzers have general governmental regulatory clearance worldwide for venom-allergic patient testing with maximally achievable analytical sensitivity (0.1 kUA/L) and confirmed reproducibility (interassay coefficient of variation <10%). Emerging oligoplex and multiplex (fixed-panel) assays conserve on serum and are more cost-effective, but they need regulatory clearance in some countries and are prone to higher rates of detecting asymptomatic sensitization. Ultimately, the patient’s clinical history, combined with proof of sensitization, is the final arbiter in the diagnosis of Hymenoptera venom allergy.

Background

Hymenoptera venom is one of the most frequent causes of anaphylaxis. Studies from adults indicate the clinical profiles and risk factors of Hymenoptera venom-induced anaphylaxis (VIA). Much less is known about pediatric VIA.

Objective

To understand elicitor- and age-related factors determining pediatric VIA by analyzing data from the anaphylaxis registry.

Methods

We selected pediatric VIA, pediatric food-induced anaphylaxis (FIA), and adult VIA cohorts from the anaphylaxis registry and performed a comparative data analysis regarding elicitors, symptoms, and management.

Results

We identified 725 pediatric patients with VIA, 3,149 with pediatric FIA, and 5,534 with adult VIA. In pediatric VIA, boys were more frequently affected, atopy was not increased, and the onset of the reaction after exposure was fast (≤30 min; 91%) compared with pediatric FIA. Symptoms in pediatric VIA were age dependent, and although respiratory symptoms occurred most frequently besides skin symptoms in both pediatric patients with VIA and FIA, cardiovascular symptoms were more frequently reported in pediatric patients with VIA than pediatric patients with FIA. The analysis of pediatric versus adult VIA revealed clear differences in the frequency of involved organ systems (skin: 93% vs 78%; respiratory: 77% vs 64%; and cardiovascular: 61% vs 85%). For both pediatric and adult VIA, the rates of adrenaline application by a professional were low (29% vs 31%) but hospitalization rates were higher in children than in adults (61% vs 42%). Venom immunotherapy was frequently initiated regardless of age (78% each).

Conclusions

Pediatric VIA is more frequent in boys, symptoms are age dependent, and hospitalization is often required. Adrenaline should be applied according to current guidelines. Venom immunotherapy is an important treatment option in pediatric VIA and should be considered in severely affected children.
背景:膜翅目昆虫毒液是导致过敏性休克的最常见原因之一。成人研究表明了膜翅目昆虫毒液诱发过敏性休克(VIA)的临床特征和风险因素。但对小儿 VIA 的了解却很少:目的:通过分析过敏性休克登记数据,更好地了解决定小儿 VIA 的诱发因素和年龄相关因素:我们从过敏性休克登记处选取了小儿 VIA、小儿食物诱发过敏性休克(FIA)和成人 VIA 队列,并对诱发因素、症状和管理进行了数据对比分析:结果:共发现 725 例小儿 VIA、3149 例小儿 FIA 和 5534 例成人 VIA。在小儿 VIA 中,与小儿 FIA 相比,男孩发病率更高,而过敏性体质的儿童发病率并不增加,并且在接触后反应很快(≤ 30 分钟;91%)。小儿 VIA 的症状与年龄有关,虽然呼吸道症状是小儿 VIA 和 FIA 中除皮肤症状外最常见的症状,但小儿 VIA 比小儿 FIA 更常出现心血管症状。对小儿和成人 VIA 的分析显示,受累器官系统的频率存在明显差异(皮肤:93/78%;呼吸系统:77/64%;心血管系统:61/85%)。在儿童和成人 VIA 中,由专业人员使用肾上腺素的比例较低(29/31%),但儿童的住院率高于成人(61/42%)。毒液免疫疗法(VIT)的使用频率与年龄无关(各占 78%):结论:小儿 VIA 多见于男孩,症状与年龄有关,通常需要住院治疗。应根据现行指南使用肾上腺素。VIT 是治疗小儿 VIA 的重要选择,严重患儿应考虑使用 VIT。

Background

Oral immunotherapy (OIT) for food allergy has been largely studied in older children within the context of clinical trials, and its availability has historically been limited for younger patients with food allergy. Data have shown that the most impact may actually be seen with the use of OIT in younger infants and toddlers.

Objective

To evaluate the safety and feasibility of OIT in subjects 24 months and younger in a real-world setting using commercially available food products.

Methods

This was a retrospective study of subjects 24 months and younger initiated on OIT for peanut, tree nut, or sesame allergy within the Scripps Clinic allergy department. Medical records were reviewed for data regarding initial oral food challenges, OIT, and adverse outcomes.

Results

Fifty-two subjects 24 months and younger were initiated on OIT. Most subjects (84.6%) were on single-food OIT, and some (15.4%) were on multifood OIT. No increased adverse outcomes were observed on multifood OIT. Of the 59 initial oral food challenges, objective reactions occurred during 42 challenges, most being low-grade reactions. During initial oral food challenges, 86.1% of peanut-allergic children tolerated 1/8 of 1 Bamba stick with no reaction. Most subjects (73.1%) updosed at home, and most (51.9%) had no reactions while updosing. Some had low-grade cutaneous reactions, none requiring epinephrine or emergency evaluation.

Conclusions

OIT in infants is safe and feasible to perform in a real-world setting using commercially available food products with at-home updosing, thus increasing the availability of OIT for patients.
背景:针对食物过敏的口服免疫疗法(OIT)主要是在临床试验中对年龄较大的儿童进行研究的,而对于年龄较小的食物过敏患者来说,口服免疫疗法的可用性一直很有限。数据显示,对年幼的婴幼儿使用口服免疫疗法可能会产生最大的影响:评估在实际环境中使用市售食品对 24 个月以下受试者进行 OIT 的安全性和可行性:这是一项回顾性研究,研究对象是斯克里普斯诊所过敏科因花生、树坚果或芝麻过敏而开始使用 OIT 的 24 个月及以下儿童。研究人员查阅了病历,以了解最初的口服食物挑战(OFC)、OIT 和不良反应的相关数据:52名 24 个月以下的受试者开始接受 OIT。大多数受试者(84.6%)使用单一食物 OIT,部分受试者(15.4%)使用多种食物 OIT。多食物 OIT 未发现不良后果增加。在 59 次初次 OFC 中,有 42 次出现了客观反应,大多数为低度反应。在最初的 OFC 中,86.1% 的花生过敏儿童可以耐受 1/8 根班巴棒,且没有任何反应。大多数受试者(73.1%)在家中增加剂量,而大多数受试者(51.9%)在增加剂量时未出现反应。一些受试者出现了低度皮肤反应,但没有人需要注射肾上腺素或进行紧急评估:结论:在现实世界中,使用市售食品在婴儿中进行 OIT 是安全可行的,而且可以在家中增加剂量,从而增加患者获得 OIT 的机会。

Background

Although respiratory viruses are common triggers of asthma exacerbations, the influence of viral infection characteristics on exacerbation presentation and treatment response in the pediatric emergency department (ED) is unclear.

Objective

To assess viral infection characteristics of children experiencing ED asthma exacerbations and to test their associations with severity and treatment response.

Methods

This is a prospective study of children, aged 4 to 18 years, who received standard ED asthma exacerbation treatment with inhaled bronchodilators and systemic corticosteroids. Nasal swabs collected for viral metagenomic analyses determined virus presence, load, and species. Outcomes included exacerbation severity (Pediatric Asthma Severity [PAS] score, clinician impression, and vital signs) and treatment response (discharge home without needing additional asthma therapies).

Results

Of 107 children, 47% had moderate/severe exacerbations by PAS and 64% demonstrated treatment response. Viral metagenomic analysis on nasal swabs from 73 children detected virus in 86%, with 10 different species identified, primarily rhinovirus A (RV-A), RV-C, and enterovirus D68. Exacerbations involving RV-A were milder (odds ratio [OR] = 0.25; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.07-0.83) and tended to be more responsive to treatment than non-RV-A infections, whereas exacerbations involving enterovirus D68 were more severe (OR = 8.3; 95% CI = 1.3-164.7) and had no treatment response association. Viral load was not associated with treatment response but exhibited a strong linear relationship with heart rate (rpartial = 0.48), respiratory rate (rpartial = 0.25), and oxygen saturation (rpartial = –0.25), indicative of severity.

Conclusions

The majority of ED asthma exacerbations are triggered by respiratory viruses.

背景:虽然呼吸道病毒是哮喘加重的常见诱因,但病毒感染特征对儿科急诊室(ED)哮喘加重表现和治疗反应的影响尚不清楚:评估急诊科哮喘加重儿童的病毒感染特征,并检验其与严重程度和治疗反应的关系:方法:对接受吸入支气管扩张剂和全身皮质类固醇标准急诊室哮喘加重治疗的 4-18 岁儿童进行前瞻性研究。采集鼻拭子进行病毒元基因组分析,确定病毒的存在、载量和种类。结果包括哮喘加重的严重程度(小儿哮喘严重程度(PAS)评分、临床医生的印象和生命体征)和治疗反应(出院回家后无需再接受哮喘治疗):结果:在107名儿童中,47%的儿童出现中度/重度哮喘,64%的儿童对治疗有反应。对 73 名儿童的鼻拭子进行病毒元基因组分析后发现,86% 的儿童感染了病毒,其中发现了 10 种不同的病毒,主要是鼻病毒 A(RV-A)、RV-C 和肠道病毒 D68。与非RV-A感染相比,涉及RV-A的病情加重较轻(几率比[OR]=0.25;95% CI=0.07-0.83),对治疗的反应也更强烈;而涉及肠道病毒D68的病情加重更严重(OR=8.3;95% CI=1.3-164.7),与治疗反应无关。病毒载量与治疗反应无关,但与心率(rpartial=0.48)、呼吸频率(rpartial=0.25)和血氧饱和度(rpartial=-0.25)呈强烈的线性关系,表明病情严重:结论:大多数急诊室哮喘加重是由呼吸道病毒引发的。病毒种类与严重程度和治疗反应相关,这表明早期病原体检测可为急诊室治疗决策提供依据。还需要进行更多的研究,以确定不同病毒种类引发的加重的病理生物学基础差异,以及如何有效治疗这些异质性加重。

Background

Small-airway function assessment is crucial for asthma diagnosis and management. Abnormalities in terminal airflow deserve attention.

Objective

This study investigated whether (FEV3-FEV1)/FVC correlates with airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and inflammation in patients with preserved spirometry.

Methods

This cross-sectional study enrolled patients with FEV1 of 80% predicted or greater, FEV1/FVC of 0.7 or greater, and recurring asthma-like symptoms. Data included demographics, FeNO, impulse oscillometry, and spirometry. Univariate and combined models predicting AHR were analyzed in 553 patients and validated in 561. We also assessed correlations between sputum inflammation and spirometrics.

Results

Airway-hyperresponsive patients exhibited higher (FEV3-FEV1)/FVC ratios compared with those who were negative for AHR. This ratio showed the strongest association with the methacholine dose causing a 20% FEV1 decrease and the response dose ratio (r = –0.26 and 0.39, respectively; P < .001 for both). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for AHR diagnosis using (FEV3-FEV1)/FVC was 0.751, increasing to 0.821 when it was combined with FeNO, as confirmed in the validation cohort. Moreover, (FEV3-FEV1)/FVC was superior to maximal expiratory flow at 50% of FVC for identifying eosinophilic airway inflammation characterized by elevated FeNO levels. It correlated better with sputum eosinophil count than with the other spirometrics.

Conclusions

Elevated (FEV3-FEV1)/FVC levels were evident in AHR-positive patients with preserved FEV1/FVC ratios. They serve as a sensitive marker of AHR and airway inflammation correlating with the response dose ratio, a provocative dose causing a 20% fall in FEV1, and sputum eosinophils, suggesting their utility in monitoring patients at risk for uncontrolled asthma.
背景:小气道功能评估对哮喘的诊断和治疗至关重要。末端气流异常值得关注:本研究探讨了第二秒和第三秒用力呼气量与用力肺活量之比([FEV3-FEV1]/FVC)是否与肺活量保留患者的气道高反应性(AHR)和炎症相关:这项横断面研究招募了 FEV1 预测值≥ 80%、FEV1/FVC ≥ 0.7 和反复出现哮喘样症状的患者。数据包括人口统计学、呼出一氧化氮分数(FeNO)、脉冲振荡仪和肺活量测定。对 553 名患者进行了预测 AHR 的单变量和组合模型分析,并对 561 名患者进行了验证。同时还评估了痰液炎症与肺活量之间的相关性:结果:与 AHR- 相比,AHR+ 患者的 (FEV3-FEV1)/FVC 比率更高。该比率与导致 FEV1 下降 20% 的甲基胆碱剂量 (PD20) 和反应剂量比 (RDR) 的关系最为密切(r = -0.26 和 0.39;P < .001,两者均如此)。使用 (FEV3-FEV1)/FVC 诊断 AHR 的接收器操作特征曲线下面积为 0.751,与 FeNO 结合使用时增加到 0.821,这在验证队列中得到了证实。在识别以 FeNO 水平升高为特征的嗜酸性粒细胞气道炎症方面,(FEV3-FEV1)/FVC 优于 50%用力呼吸量时的最大呼气流量。它与痰中嗜酸性粒细胞计数的相关性优于其他肺活量指标:结论:FEV3-FEV1/FVC 升高在 FEV1/FVC 比值保持不变的 AHR+ 患者中十分明显。它是 AHR 和气道炎症的灵敏标记,与 RDR、PD20 和痰嗜酸性粒细胞相关,表明它在监测有失控哮喘风险的患者中很有用。

Background

In cholinergic urticaria (CholU), itchy wheal and flare-type skin reactions are triggered by sweat-inducing activities. The CholU activity score (CholUAS) is used to assess disease activity but has not yet been validated. The aim of the study was to validate the CholUAS, develop an English version, and provide instructions for scoring.

Methods

Cognitive debriefing of CholUAS was performed. Patients with CholU (n = 75) used the CholUAS on 7 consecutive days, underwent provocation testing, completed additional anchor instrument questionnaires including global evaluation tools, and established quality of life instruments. A scoring protocol for the calculation of the weekly CholUAS, the CholUAS7, was developed. The CholUAS7 was tested for validity, reliability, and influencing factors. An English version of the CholUAS was developed.

Results

The final CholUAS contains 3 questions that are used for scoring as well as 1 global question. The weekly CholUAS, CholUAS7, showed excellent test-retest reliability and good correlations with anchor instruments. Statistical analysis showed no significant influence of age or duration of disease on CholUAS7 results.

Conclusion

The validated CholUAS is ready for use in clinical trials and routine clinical practice.
背景:在胆碱能性荨麻疹(CholU)中,出汗活动会引发瘙痒性麦粒肿和发作型皮肤反应。胆碱能性荨麻疹活动评分(CholUAS)用于评估疾病活动,但尚未得到验证。本研究旨在验证 CholUAS,开发英文版本,并提供评分说明:方法:对 CholUAS 进行认知汇报。胆汁淤积症患者(n = 75)连续 7 天使用胆汁淤积症评估系统,接受激惹试验,并完成其他锚定工具问卷,包括全球评估工具和既定的生活质量工具。为计算每周 CholUAS(即 CholUAS7)制定了评分标准。对 CholUAS7 的有效性、可靠性和影响因素进行了测试。同时还开发了英文版的 CholUAS:最终的 CholUAS 包括 3 个用于评分的问题和一个综合问题。每周一次的 CholUAS,即 CholUAS7,显示出极佳的测试再测可靠性,并与锚定工具有良好的相关性。统计分析显示,年龄或病程对 CholUAS7 的结果没有明显影响:经过验证的胆固醇测量系统可用于临床试验和常规临床实践。
