More Diesel - More Allergy
An increasing number of new auto buyers choose diesel engines. For asthmatics and those with allergies this is very unfortunate. Particles in diesel exhaust can both worsen and trigger allergic reactions. view more (2004-04-30)
Daily alcohol use causes changes in sexual behavior, new study reveals
A team of researchers at Penn Sate has used an animal model to reveal, for the first time, a physiological basis for the effect of alcohol on male sexual behavior, including increased sexual arousal and decreased sexual inhibition. view more (2008-01-03)
AAAAI, ACAAI identify new recommendations for sinusitis diagnosis and management
Sinusitis is one of the most diagnosed diseases in the United States, affecting approximately 16% of the adult population, and is responsible for nearly $5.8 billion in health care costs annually, according to an updated practice parameter. view more (2005-11-30)
Grabbing addiction by the tail
Canadian scientists have developed some clever molecular trickery that is helping to reduce the drug cravings of addicted rats. One of the problems in addiction is that neurons in some parts of the brain lose glutamate receptors from the cell surface, and those receptors are important for communication between neurons. view more (2005-11-28)
Even natural perfumes may cause allergies
Hypersensitivity to perfumes is the most common contact allergy in adults. Research at the University of Gothenburg has demonstrated that even natural aromatic oils, which many deem harmless compared to synthetic perfumes, may cause allergic reactions. view more (2009-02-04)
Children with Asthma More Likely to Have Behavioural Problems
Children with asthma are more likely to have behavioural problems according to a new study conducted by researchers at The University of Manchester. Dr Rachel Calam, Senior Lecturer in Clinical Psychology, and her team followed 663 children from the National Asthma Campaign, Manchester Asthma and Allergy Study from birth to examine the development... view more...

Hay fever may be best treated with self-adjusted dosing
Hay fever, the often seasonal allergy that affects between 10 and 20 percent of the American population, is best controlled through a course of patient-adjusted dosing. view more (2008-10-01)
Drinking milk to ease milk allergy?
Giving children with milk allergies increasingly higher doses of milk over time may ease, and even help them completely overcome, their allergic reactions, according to the results of a study led by the Johns Hopkins Children's Center and conducted jointly with Duke University. view more (2008-10-31)
Breastfeeding does not protect against asthma and allergic diseases (pp 887, 901)
A longitudinal study in this week's issue of THE LANCET provides compelling evidence that breastfeeding does not protect against asthma and atopy in childhood and early adulthood-authors of the study suggest that breastfeeding may actually increase the risk of these diseases. Breastfeeding is widely advocated to reduce the risk of atopy and... view more... (2002-09-18)
'Hygiene hypothesis' challenged
New research hints that the common belief that kids who go to daycare have lower rates of asthma and allergy later in life might be nothing more than wishful thinking. view more (2009-09-08)
Scientists move closer to developing a new class of asthma and allergy drugs
A team of Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) funded scientists has moved a step closer to developing a new class of effective asthma and allergy drugs. view more (2008-02-15)
New allergy vaccine provides long-lasting hay fever relief after just 6 weeks of shots
Researchers at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine have successfully used an experimental DNA-based vaccine to protect against ragweed allergies, commonly known as hay fever, after just six injections. view more (2006-10-05)
Immune system pathway identified to fight allergens, asthma
For the first time, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine have identified genetic components of dendritic cells that are key to asthma and allergy-related immune response malfunction. view more (2008-05-08)
Researchers demonstrate potential mechanism of food allergy
Researchers have identified one of the proteins that may be responsible for causing food allergies, which could lead to the development of more accurate non-invasive tests to identify true food allergies. view more (2006-07-24)
Patients with coeliac disease can safely eat moderate amounts of oats
People with the painful gut disorder coeliac disease are advised to stick to a gluten free diet, with no wheat or rye. Oats are usually discouraged as well, because the protein they contain is similar to gluten. But new research in Gut suggests that coeliac patients can safely eat moderate amounts of oats, and for several years. view more (2002-02-08)
Hot Clues To A Cool Nose
In an attack of hay fever, the temperature of the nose rises. Effective medication prevents this too. An infrared camera provides non-contact images of the changes. Researchers can use these images to determine how reliable and effective anti-allergic agents are. When summer comes, it brings with it severe sneezing attacks and itching eyes. People... view more... (2004-07-08)
Abnormal immune cells may cause unprovoked anaphylaxis
Two new clinical reports shed light on why some people suffer from recurrent episodes of idiopathic anaphylaxis--a potentially life-threatening condition of unknown cause characterized by a drop in blood pressure, fainting episodes, difficulty in breathing, and wheezing. view more (2007-11-12)
UT Southwestern allergist offers coping strategies
The good news for allergy sufferers is that springtime mountain cedars and tree pollens have generally subsided. The bad news: It's summertime. view more (2006-06-14)
