The challenges of chronic urticaria part 2: Pharmacological treatment, chronic inducible urticaria, urticaria in special situations. World Allergy Organ J 2021; 14:100546. [PMID: 34141049 PMCID: PMC8188551 DOI: 10.1016/j.waojou.2021.100546] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Revised: 02/22/2021] [Accepted: 04/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
This is Part 2 of an updated follow-up review of the World Allergy Organization (WAO) position paper on the diagnosis and treatment of urticaria and angioedema. Since that document was published, new advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of chronic urticaria, and greater experience with the use of biologics in patients with severe refractory disease, mainly omalizumab, have been gained. For these reasons, WAO decided to initiate an update targeted to general practitioners around the world, incorporating the most recent information on epidemiology, immunopathogenesis, comorbidities, quality of life, clinical case presentations, and the management of chronic spontaneous and chronic inducible urticaria, and urticaria in special situations such as childhood and pregnancy. A special task force of WAO experts was invited to write the different sections of the manuscript, and the final document was approved by the WAO Board of Directors. This paper is not intended to be a substitute for current national and international guidelines on the management of urticaria and angioedema, but to provide an updated simplified guidance for physicians around the world who have to manage patients with this common ailment.

Abstract
Histiocytosis-lymphadenopathy plus syndrome (H syndrome) is caused by mutations in the SLC29A3 gene that result in histiocytic infiltration of numerous organs. Patients suffering from this disorder can be easily mistaken for similar conditions such as Muckle-Wells syndrome. We present a 9.5-year-old boy, who is the offspring of a consanguineous marriage. He suffered from sensorineural hearing loss, dark hyperpigmented indurated dry areas on the medial thighs sparing the knees with hypertrichosis on the affected areas, and areas of hypopigmentation on the abdomen. The patient displayed mild dysmorphism including frontal bossing, synophrys, bilateral proptosis (with normal thyroid function), thick eyebrows, flat nose, long philtrum, and pectus excavatum. Formal intelligence testing showed that he was a slow learner. Laboratory findings included elevated serum amyloid-A, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and total proteins in urine tests. Complete blood count showed mild microcytic hypochromic anemia. The molecular analysis was crucial to confirm the provisional clinical diagnosis. H syndrome is a rare autoinflammatory syndrome with pleiotropic manifestations that affect many organs and can be mistaken for other conditions. Our patient's description may expand the phenotype of H syndrome, as areas of hypopigmentation were observed on the abdomen. Molecular analysis of SLC29A3 -related diseases is essential to highlight the variability and increase the awareness of H syndrome aiming for early diagnosis and proper treatment.

Abstract
Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are characterized by an increased risk of infections, autoimmunity, autoinflammation, malignancy, and allergic disorders. Skin disorders are also common clinical features in PIDs and may be among the presenting manifestations. Recognition of specific PID-associated skin conditions in combination with other clinical features as described in the currently used warning signs could raise suspicion of an underlying PID. We aimed to provide a systematically obtained overview of skin disorders and their prevalence in PIDs. Secondary, the prevalence of Staphylococcus (S.) aureus-associated skin disorders and atopy was reviewed, as these are the most prominent skin features in PIDs. A systematic search was performed in EMBASE, MEDLINE, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Google Scholar (up to May 9, 2018). All original observational and experimental human studies that address the presence of skin disorders in PIDs were selected. We rated study quality using the Institute of Health Economics Quality Appraisal Checklist for Case Series Studies. Sixty-seven articles (5030 patients) were included. Study quality ranged from 18.2% to 88.5%. A broad spectrum of skin disorders was reported in 30 PIDs, mostly in single studies with a low number of included patients. An overview of associated PIDs per skin disorder was generated. Data on S. aureus-associated skin disorders and atopy in PIDs were limited. In conclusion, skin disorders are prominent features in PIDs. Through clustering of PIDs per skin disorder, we provide a support tool to use in clinical practice that should raise awareness of PIDs based on presenting skin manifestations.

Abstract
ObjectivesAutoinflammatory diseases cause systemic inflammation that can result in damage to multiple organs. A validated instrument is essential to quantify damage in individual patients and to compare disease outcomes in clinical studies. Currently, there is no such tool. Our objective was to develop a common autoinflammatory disease damage index (ADDI) for familial Mediterranean fever, cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes, tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic fever syndrome and mevalonate kinase deficiency.MethodsWe developed the ADDI by consensus building. The top 40 enrollers of patients in the Eurofever Registry and 9 experts from the Americas participated in multiple rounds of online surveys to select items and definitions. Further, 22 (parents of) patients rated damage items and suggested new items. A consensus meeting was held to refine the items and definitions, which were then formally weighted in a scoring system derived using decision-making software, known as 1000minds.ResultsMore than 80% of the experts and patients completed the online surveys. The preliminary ADDI contains 18 items, categorised in the following eight organ systems: reproductive, renal/amyloidosis, developmental, serosal, neurological, ears, ocular and musculoskeletal damage. The categories renal/amyloidosis and neurological damage were assigned the highest number of points, serosal damage the lowest number of points. The involvement of (parents of) patients resulted in the inclusion of, for example, chronic musculoskeletal pain.ConclusionsAn instrument to measure damage caused by autoinflammatory diseases is developed based on consensus building. Patients fulfilled a significant role in this process.

Abstract
The SLC29A3 gene, encoding hENT3, a member of the equilibrative nucleoside transporter family, has recently been found mutated in Faisalabad histiocytosis, pigmented hypertrichotic dermatosis with insulin-dependent diabetes, familial sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (SHML), and H syndromes. We here report clinical and genetic findings of an Egyptian family with H syndrome. We describe two siblings, a 19-yr old girl and a 15-yr old boy, of consanguineous parents. From 5 yr of age, the girl developed bilateral flexion deformity of interphalengeal joints and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. At age 7 yr, prominent hyperpigmented patches appeared on the skin at lower limbs, genitalia, and trunk. On clinical examination, she had hepatosplenomegaly, generalized lymphadenopathy, left ventricular hypertrophy, sensorineural hearing loss, hypogonadism, short stature, and characteristic dysmorphic features. Her brother had fixed flexion contractures of the feet, profound sensorineural hearing loss, characteristic dysmorphic features, but no diabetes. DNA sequence analysis revealed a homozygous mutation (c.300+1G>C) in SLC29A3 in both siblings. The phenotype and genotype of the siblings were compatible with that of the H syndrome, although the features were overlapping with those found in pigmented hypertrichotic dermatosis with insulin-dependent diabetes, familial SHML, and Faisalabad histiocytosis, indicating that these four syndromes may be regarded as one disease with varying phenotypic features. A new, common name for these conditions is warranted.

Abstract
Muckle-Wells syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disease that belongs to a group of hereditary febrile syndromes. It is characterized by recurrent and self-limited episodes of fever, urticaria, arthralgia, myalgia and conjunctivitis since childhood, which are related to exposure to cold temperatures. Lately, progressive sensorineural hearing loss occurs. Amyloidosis is the main complication and can be found in about 25% of the cases. It has been demonstrated that there is an association with mutations in the NLRP3 gene, which codifies cryopyrin, a protein responsible for regulating the production of proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1Beta. The authors report four cases of the disease within a family.

Abstract
We present a follow-up of a cohort of three cases of Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS). The aim of this report is to characterise the symptoms of this rare autosomal dominant condition with respect to the ENT practice. A retrospective analysis of the clinical features of MWS from our outpatient follow-up record of the three patients diagnosed with MWS. An extensive literature search was performed, using Medline through Pub Med (1950-2010), EMBASE (1980-2009) and Ovid (1958-2009). Retrospective case note study. In the present cohort, progressive sensorineural hearing loss was the main presentation and has been followed up over 10 years (median). The spectrum of head and neck presentation from the world literature was reviewed and includes hypothyroidism, amyloid goitre, cervical lymphadenopathy, and facial rash. This is the first documented report of the Otolaryngological features of the MWS in the English ENT literature. An awareness of this rare syndrome is essential in order to diagnose this uncommon syndrome and thus to plan for a long-term follow-up.

Abstract
The neutrophilic dermatoses are rare disorders, especially in children, and are characterized by neutrophilic infiltrates in the skin and less commonly in extracutaneous tissue. The neutrophilic dermatoses share similar clinical appearances and associated conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease, malignancies, and medications. Overlap forms of disease demonstrating features of multiple neutrophilic dermatoses may be seen. The manuscript attempts to provide an up-to-date review of (i) classical neutrophilic dermatoses, focusing on distinctive features in children and (ii) neutrophilic dermatoses which may largely be pediatric or genodermatosis-associated (Majeed, SAPHO [synovitis, severe acne, sterile palmoplantar pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis] syndrome, PAPA (pyogenic sterile arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne), PFAPA (periodic fever with aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, and cervical adenopathy), and other periodic fever syndromes, and congenital erosive and vesicular dermatosis healing with reticulated supple scarring).

Abstract
Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS), as well as familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS) and chronic infantile neurological cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCA), arises from a missense mutation in the CIAS1 gene. Current progress of biology revealed that NALP3, a protein coded by the CIAS1 and expressed in monocytes, recognizes some bacterial products or harmful metabolites invaded in the cytoplasm, and forms inflammasome with other molecules. As a result, caspase-1 is activated leading to cleavage of pro-IL-1beta and extracellular release of IL-1beta. NALP3 of patients with MWS can be spontaneously activated without obvious stimulation, which causes recurrent attacks of inflammatory symptoms characterized by fever, urticarial rash, conjunctivitis and arthritis, and some patients develop amyloidosis. In addition, sensorineural hearing disturbance progresses gradually. Recently, significant efficacy of anakinra, a recombinant IL-1 receptor antagonist, has been demonstrated in treatment of MWS. So far, only a few cases have been reported from Japan, however an accurate diagnosis has to be established for the latent cases who have not received optimum treatment before occurrence of irreversible deafness or renal failure.
