Wang Y, Peters RL, Perrett KP, et al. - Researchers sought to assess the frequency, features, and risk factors for adverse food reactions, including anaphylaxis, among food-allergic 6-year-old-children utilizing the population-based HealthNuts study. The HealthNuts study of 5,276 infants (1-year-old) followed them up at age 6 years (84.4% taken part). In total, 260 children with IgE-mediated food allergy who completed a questionnaire detailing recent adverse food reactions were involved in this investigation. Among food-allergic children, 44.6% reported an adverse food reaction in the last 12 months and 10.8% reported an anaphylactic reaction, but about half of them were identified as anaphylaxis by parents. Nut allergy has been linked to a reduced risk of having an adverse reaction. Adverse food reactions occurred in nearly half of all 6-year-old children who were allergic to food, and anaphylaxis occurred in 1 in 10 children over 12 months. Anaphylaxis has been poorly recognized and adrenaline autoinjectors have not been properly used. Improved routine education is urgently required regarding the prevention, detection, and management of adverse food reactions.
