PG - 517-526 LID - S0889-8561(21)00035-7 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.iac.2021.04.010 [doi] AB - Food allergy evaluation for dermatologic disorders is warranted when Type 1 allergy is suspected, and includes skin prick testing (SPT) or measurement of specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels. The utility of these tests for identifying triggers is improved with clinical correlation, especially for contact urticaria, and protein contact dermatitis, which are mixed mechanism diseases. In atopic dermatitis (AD), patients are at risk for development of food allergy, and screening with SPT or IgE may be considered in severe AD, especially to guide early food introduction. Management of food-related AD exacerbations should focus on modifications in skincare before evaluating for allergy. CI - Copyright (c) 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
