In this retrospective study of 183,692 patients ≤19 years evaluated in urgent cares and emergency departments of a large pediatric academic center July 2022- June 2023, we found that in addition to race, socioeconomic status reflected by insurance and area deprivation index had a large association with penicillin allergy labels.

Background: Dedicator of cytokinesis 8 gene (DOCK8) deficiency is an immune disorder associated with autosomal recessive hyper-IgE syndrome, characterized by elevated IgE levels, atopic dermatitis, and predisposition to recurrent skin and lung infections.
Objectives/Goal: A 12-year-old male presented to Immunology clinic for DOCK8 deficiency. He was diagnosed in infancy due to diffuse papulopustular eruption positive for candidiasis and known family history. Past medical history included severe eczematous dermatitis, asthma, interstitial lung disease, food allergies, and poor growth, with cutaneous HSV and fungal infections, HSV keratitis, and MRSA bacteremia. Family history was notable for two siblings with DOCK8 deficiency, both deceased. …
Likelihood Ratios For Reactions To Egg Based On Specific Ige And Oral Challenges, Melissa Anderson
Likelihood Ratios For Reactions To Egg Based On Specific Ige And Oral Challenges, Melissa Anderson

Background: Specific IgE (sIgE) to foods has been used to predict the risk of a systemic reaction (SR) when the food is ingested. An arbitrary cutoff of 0.35 is often used to separate a positive likelihood ratio (LR+) from a negative one (LR-), yet there is little evidence supporting the use of this value.
Objectives/Goal: The objective of this project was to establish a more accurate method for estimating the probability of food allergy to egg.
Methods/Design: Egg-sIgEs were measured and open oral egg challenges were performed on 155 children with a clinical history of egg allergy. Logistic regression (LR) …
