The Clinical Relevance of Sensitization to Pollen-Related Fruits and Vegetables in Unselected Pollen-Sensitized Adults
Abstract
Background: Previous studies have described cross‐reactivity between fresh fruits, vegetables and pollen. However, no data demonstrates the clinical relevance of sensitization to pollen‐related fruits and vegetables in unselected pollen‐sensitized adults with and without symptoms in the pollen season. Objective: The aim of this study was to estimate the clinical relevance of sensitization to pollen‐related fruits and vegetables in unselected pollen‐sensitized adults and to examine the diagnostic value of skin‐prick test (SPT), histamine release and specific IgE compared with the outcome of oral challenge. Methods: In total, 936 unselected adults (female : male 479 : 457, median age 33.7 years) were examined for pollen sensitization and clinical cross‐reactivity with pollen‐related fruits and vegetables by questionnaire, SPT, histamine release, specific IgE and oral challenge. Results: The prevalence of pollen sensitization was 23.8% (n = 223). The probability of a clinical reaction to pollen‐related foods in the respective pollen‐sensitized groups was: 24% (birch), 4% (grass), 10% (mugwort), 35% (birch + grass), 8% (grass + mugwort) and 52% (birch + grass + mugwort). The odds ratio of a clinical reaction to pollen‐related fruits and vegetables in symptomatic pollen‐sensitized adults was as high as four times (birch + grass) the odds ratio of a clinical reaction in asymptomatic pollen‐sensitized adults. Conclusion: This study not only demonstrates a high prevalence of clinical reactions to fruits and vegetables in pollen‐sensitized adults, but also a discrepancy between the prevalence of sensitization to fruits and vegetables and the clinical relevance in different pollen‐sensitized groups with symptoms in the pollen season as a significant factor.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
