“…The 3-day modified wheat-cofactor challenge protocols were performed in 18 of 33 patients in our cohort as previously reported. 8 This protocol allowed for exercise-induced anaphylaxis (EIA), WA, and WDEIA to be diagnosed if a positive result occurred on days 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The contraindications of wheat challenges in our study included 1) having a history of severe anaphylaxis to wheat resulting in profound hypotension, neurological compromise, or respiratory failure and 2) having active cardio-neuro-pulmonary diseases, such as coronary heart disease, asthma, chronic obstructive lung disease, epilepsy, or psychiatric diseases.…”
