“…Intangible costs were also higher in households with one food allergic adult, compared with controls. 8 We now extend this work to households with children and adolescents. The objective of this study was to estimate the direct, indirect, and intangible costs of food allergy in households with a child or adolescent with objectively diagnosed allergy to the staple foods such as cow's milk, hen's egg, and/or wheat, and to compare these costs with age-and sex-matched controls.…”

“…7 Although difficult to assess monetarily, these costs are estimated to be high. 7,8 On the basis of an algorithm to estimate costs of immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated food allergy to society, 7 we recently identified that the total annual costs for households with one food allergic adult were V8164 higher than those for age-and sex-matched controls. 8 Notably, the driving factor was indirect, rather than direct, costs.…”

“…This strategy was applied for convenience of recruitment, and paralleled that used to recruit controls for our study of household costs of objectively diagnosed allergy to staple foods in adults. 8 Exclusion criteria for controls paralleled those of cases. The age-matching was done in 2-year intervals, so that the controls were born in the same year plus/ minus 1 year as the cases.…”

SANTRAUKAReikšminiai žodžiai: glutamo rūgštis, mononatrio glutamatas, neurosiuntiklis, maisto priedai. Padidėjęs jautrumas maisto priedams ar maisto netoleravimas dažnai painiojami dėl nepageidaujamų simptomų, kurie yra susiję su maisto vartojimu. Tai apibrėžiama kaip reakcija, kai simptomai privalo būti pakartojami, tačiau nėra žinoma, ar dalyvauja imunologiniai mechanizmai. Todėl tikslesnis terminas esti padidėjęs nealerginis jautrumas maistui, kuris skiriasi nuo alergijos maistui, kai dalyvauja imunologiniai mechanizmai. Tikrasis padidėjusio nealerginio jautrumo maistui dažnis siekia 1-2 proc., kai tėvai teigia, kad per 20 proc. vaikų netoleruoja maisto. Padidėjusio jautrumo maisto priedams paplitimas realiame gyvenime nėra tiksliai žinomas. Maisto priedų sukeliamų reakcijų paplitimas bendroje populiacijoje -0,01-0,23 proc., atopiškiems asmenims -2-7 proc. Glutamo rūgštis -tai viena iš 20-22 aminorūgščių, esančių baltymų sudėtyje. Ji priskiriama pakeičiamųjų aminorūgščių grupei, nes yra gaminama žmogaus organizme iš α-keto-glutarato. Tai dvi karboksigrupes turinti aminorūgštis. Fiziologinėmis sąlygomis karboksigrupės praranda protonus, tai yra disocijuoja, susidaro du karboksilato anijonai. Tokia glutamo rūgšties forma vadinama glutamatu. Glutamatas su Na + , K + katijonais sudaro druskas, todėl ląstelėse dažniausiai būna natrio arba kalio glutamatas. Glutamatą iš kviečių glitimo 1866 metais išskyrė ir struktūrą nustatė vokiečių chemikas L. Ritthausenas. Glutamatas yra viena svarbių molekulių, ląstelėse atliekanti pagrindinį vaidmenį baltymų-aminorūgščių metabolizmo reakcijose. Jis yra labai svarbus centrinės nervų sistemos neurosiuntiklis arba neuromediatorius. Reikšmingi laisvo glutamato kiekiai yra daugelio maisto produktų sudėtyje: pieno produktuose, ypač daug parmezano sūryje, šiek tiek motinos piene, paukštienos mėsoje, žuvies produktuose (sardinės, skumbrės, lašišos), daržovėse, daugiausia pomidoruose, ankštinėse bei grūdinėse kultūrose, bulvėse. Kai kuriems maisto produktams jis suteikia pikantišką, primenantį mėsos sultinio skonį. Maisto produktams pikantišką skonį suteikiantį junginį -glutamatą iš jūros dumblių XX a. pradžioje išskyrė japonų chemikas K. Ikeda ir šį prieskonį pavadino umami. Iki šiol glutamato druskos, ypač mononatrio glutamatas, ir kiti giminingi junginiai maisto pramonėje plačiai naudojami kaip maisto priedai -prieskoniai, skonio stiprikliai, kurie žymimi E620-E625. Maisto priedų saugumas, tarp jų ir glutamato, buvo patvirtintas klinikiniais tyrimais. Nepageidaujamos reakcijos gali atsirasti individualiai jautriems įprastiems maisto priedams asmenims ir (arba) perdozavus. Santrumpos: Glu -glutamatas, DAPKPOM -dvigubai aklas placebu kontroliuojamas provokacinis oralinis mėginys, CNScentrinė nervų sistema, MNG -mononatrio glutamatas, DTHS -dėmesio trūkumo ir hiperaktyvumo sutrikimas. ABSTRACTKey words: glutamic acid, monosodium glutamate, neurotransmitter, food additives. Hypersensitivity reactions to food additives or food intolerance is often confused with a range of adverse sympto...

SummaryBackground In urban centres of developing countries, there is great variation in socioeconomic status (SES) and lifestyle; however, little information is available on allergic disorders in groups with high-or low-SES within the same urban area. Objective To determine the prevalence of allergic disorders and investigate risk factors related to them among high-and low-SES schoolchildren in Makassar, the capital city of South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Method This cross-sectional study was performed in 623 children originating from high-(N = 349) and low-SES (N = 274) schools. Information on reported allergic symptoms and potential factors associated with allergic disorders was obtained by questionnaire. Specific IgE and skin prick test (SPT) reactivity were determined against aeroallergens [Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (HDM) and cockroach]. Total IgE and helminth infections were also assessed. Result The prevalence of SPT to any aeroallergens was significantly higher in high-SES than in low-SES school (25% vs. 8%, P < 0.001, respectively). However, specific IgE against cockroach and total IgE were significantly lower in high-than in low-SES children. Allergic symptoms were reported more often in low-compared to high-SES children. Specific IgE to aeroallergens significantly increased the risk of SPT positivity to the same aeroallergen in the high-, but not in the low-SES children. In the high-but not in low-SES, there was a significant positive association between SPT to HDM and wheeze. Similarly, cockroach skin reactivity and elevated BMI increased the risk of eczema in the high-SES children only. Conclusion and Clinical Relevance Skin prick test is higher in high-SES, whereas IgE and allergic symptoms are higher in low-SES children. Specific IgE is a risk factor for being SPT-positive, and SPT positivity is a risk factor for allergic symptoms but only in children of high-and not low-SES school. Therefore, the socio-economic status of a child might affect the diagnosis of allergic disease in a developing country.
