“…All types of tree nuts were investigated in the review, that is, hazelnut, walnut, almond, Brazil nut, cashew nut, pistachio, pecan nut, chestnut, pine nut, and macadamia nut. 6,7 Although the systematic review aimed to provide up-to-date data on the incidence, prevalence, and time trends for TNA, data on incidence and time trends were scarce and not sufficiently homogenous to perform meta-analysis. Therefore, only data on lifetime and point prevalence were included in the meta-analysis.…”

In 2014, the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) published the first systematic review that summarized the prevalence of food allergy (FA) and food sensitization in Europe for studies published 2000–2012. However, only summary estimates for tree nut allergy (TNA) were feasible in that work. In the current update of that systematic review, we summarized the prevalence of tree nut allergy/sensitization to individual tree nuts. Six databases were searched for relevant papers published 2012–2021 and 17 eligible studies were added to the 15 studies already identified between 2000 and 2012, giving a total of 32 studies. Of the investigated tree nuts, meta‐analysis was possible for hazelnut, walnut, almond, and in few cases, for cashew, and Brazil nut. The lifetime self‐reported prevalence was 0.8% (95% CI 0.5–1.1) for hazelnut and 0.4% (0.2–0.9) for walnut. The point self‐reported prevalence was 4.0% (2.9–5.2) for hazelnut, 3.4% (2.0–4.9) for Brazil nut, 2.0% (1.1–2.9) for almond, and 1.8% (1.1–2.5) for walnut. Point prevalence of food challenge‐confirmed TNA was 0.04% (0.0–0.1) for hazelnut and 0.02% (0.01–0.1) for walnut. Due to paucity of data, we could not identify any meaningful and consistent differences across age groups and European regions.

“…Primary hazelnut allergy manifests early in life and, as with other tree nut allergies, and tends to be persistent with a low chance of resolution [ 12 , 13 , 50 ]. This is in contrast with, for example, cow milk and hen’s egg allergy, in which many children become tolerant by school age.…”

Natural History of Hazelnut Allergy and Current Approach to Its Diagnosis and Treatment

Hazelnut allergy is the most prevalent type of nut allergy in Europe, with symptoms that can range from mild, such as hives and itching, to severe, such as anaphylaxis, particularly in patients who are sensitized to highly stable allergens, such as storage proteins. Compared to other types of food allergies, allergies to tree nuts, including hazelnuts, tend to persist throughout life. Although symptoms can appear in early childhood, they often continue into adulthood, with a minority of cases improving during adolescence. Currently, there is no curative treatment available for hazelnut allergy, and patients must adhere to a restrictive diet and carry autoinjective epinephrine. However, oral allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is a promising treatment option. Patients can be categorized based on their risk for severe reactions using various clinical, in vivo, and in vitro tests, including component-resolved diagnosis and oral food challenge. This review aims to provide an overview of the current knowledge of the natural history of hazelnut allergy and new approaches for its diagnosis and management.

Allergic reactions to foods influence a remarkable amount of population and are related with significant wellbeing results. It is one of the most significant issues that have expanding consideration. Current comprehension of the turn of events and utilization of allergenic capability of certain types of food proteins is restricted. In spite of the fact that there is a selection of in vivo models for assessing hypersensitivity, none of the current models has been approved, is prescient, or generally acknowledged with respect to their allergen explicit inhibitors. Hence, there is a proceeded with enthusiasm on the knowledge recovery based on food allergy so as to give more enlightening way to the current research field. In this paper, the current status of purification, characterization, and types of food allergens and their impacts is thoroughly reviewed. The present available methods for the allergen assessment (in view of animal, cell and clinical methodologies) are emphasized.
