Plant Food Allergy Improvement after Grass Pollen Sublingual Immunotherapy: A Case Series
Abstract
Background: Cross-reactivity between pollens and plant food has been widely described. Pollen extract subcutaneous immunotherapy in patients with pollens and plant food allergy has been shown to improve tolerance not only to inhalant allergens but also to reduce symptoms in patients with various food allergies. Methods: We retrospectively report our experience with 15 female patients with a positive history for moderate, persistent allergic rhinitis due to grass pollen and oropharyngeal symptoms after ingestion of different plant food. These patients followed a five-grass pollen sublingual tablet immunotherapy for three years in a discontinuous pre-co-seasonal scheme. Results: All 15 patients treated with the 5-grass pollen sublingual tablet immunotherapy, taken once daily for 3 years on a 7-month course, showed improved ocular/nasal symptoms, with a reduction in the use of symptomatic drugs (e.g., nasal corticosteroids and H1 antihistamines). After the first seven-month course of immunotherapy, all patients declared a good tolerance to the intake of fruits and vegetables, and in particular, good tolerance to the offending foods. Conclusions: In conclusion, we have observed improvement of both respiratory and plant food allergies after sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) with a five-grass pollen tablet.

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.
