School intervention teaches anaphylaxis, exacerbation response

PHOENIX — An educational intervention increased allergy and asthma treatment knowledge among school staff, according to data presented at the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Annual Scientific Meeting.
As the prevalence of food allergy and asthma increases among children, so do classroom emergencies, Devika Pillay, DO, an allergist at Baylor Scott & White Medical Center in Grapevine, Texas, and colleagues wrote.
“Many school nurses and school staff report inadequate resources, training and general discomfort in managing asthma/anaphylaxis emergencies,” Pillay told

Language may be a barrier in early peanut introduction

PHOENIX — Families who spoke languages other than English were less likely to introduce their infants to peanut, according to data presented at the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Annual Scientific Meeting.
These delays may put these infants at greater risk for developing peanut allergy, James Senter, MD, MPH, fellow physician, division of allergy/immunology, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, and colleagues wrote.
“My research focuses on health disparities in allergic disease among patients and families who speak languages other than English,” Senter

Less incident asthma with dupilumab vs. budesonide in EoE

PHOENIX — Significantly fewer children with eosinophilic esophagitis receiving dupilumab developed incident asthma than those receiving budesonide, according to findings presented here.
“Pediatric patients who have allergic diseases are prone to more,” Kayla Steinberger, MD, PhD, resident physician in pediatrics at West Virginia University, told Healio. “We should consider treating patients holistically and ensure patients have access to the most appropriate treatment.”

Machine learning predicts 30-day pediatric asthma ED readmission

PHOENIX — In statistical models and machine learning algorithms, a model using 12 variables was comparable to a model using 18 variables in predicting 30-day pediatric asthma ED readmission, according to results presented here.
Further, the best performing machine learning algorithm during testing had areas under the curves (AUCs) of 0.708 and 0.711, which fell only slightly below the AUCs of 0.74 and 0.742 with the best performing statistical model, according to the poster presented at the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Annual Scientific Meeting.
