Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the allergenicity change in casein treated with dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma during in vitro simulated digestion, focusing on the immunoglobulin E (IgE) linear epitopes and utilizing a sensitized-cell model. Results indicated that prior treatment with DBD plasma treatment (4 min) before simulated digestion led to a 10.5% reduction in the IgE-binding capacity of casein digestion products. Moreover, the release of biologically active substances induced from KU812 cells, including β-HEX release rate, human histamine, IL-4, IL-6, and TNF-α, decreased by 2.1, 28.1, 20.6, 11.6, and 17.3%, respectively. Through a combined analysis of LC-MS/MS and immunoinformatics tools, it was revealed that DBD plasma treatment promoted the degradation of the IgE linear epitopes of casein during digestion, particularly those located in the α-helix region of αs1-CN and αs2-CN. These findings suggest that DBD plasma treatment prior to digestion may alleviate casein allergic reactions.

Abstract
Cow's milk, an excellent source of fat, protein, amino acids, vitamins and minerals, is currently one of the most consumed products worldwide. Contaminations originating from diverse sources, such as biological, chemical, and physical, cause dairy product quality problems and thus dairy-related disorders, raising public health issues. For this reason, legal authorities have deemed it necessary to classify certain contaminations in commercial milk and keep them within particular limitations; therefore, it is urgent to develop next-generation detection systems that can accurately identify just the contaminants of concern to human health. This review presents a detailed investigation of biosensors based on graphene and its derivatives, which offer superior sensitivity and selectivity, by classifying the contaminants under the headings biological, chemical, and physical, in cow's milk according to their sources. We reviewed the current status of graphene-based biosensor (GBs) technology for milk or dairy analysis, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses with the help of comparative studies, tables, and charts, and we put forward a novel perspective to handle future challenges.

Abstract
Cow's milk allergy refers to an immunological reaction to milk protein. It is one of the commonest food protein allergies with an estimated prevalence of 0.5% to 3% at 1 y of life. The disease may be IgE or non-IgE mediated or mixed with a wide range of symptoms often involving multiple organ systems. Gastrointestinal manifestations are common in non-IgE disease and may consist of enteropathy, proctocolitis, colic, reflux-like symptoms, constipation, enterocolitis syndrome and eosinophilic esophagitis. The gold standard for diagnosis remains a double-blind placebo-controlled oral challenge. Specific IgE and skin prick tests may predict severe and persistent disease, and aid in deciding on reintroduction or oral immunotherapy; however, they do not contribute to a definitive diagnosis as they indicate only sensitization. In practice, an elimination diet followed by open challenge under medical supervision is often used for diagnosis except when symptoms are severe such as anaphylaxis. Management consists of the elimination of the allergen with resolution of symptoms between 1-4 wk later depending on the type of allergy. Extensively hydrolyzed and Amino acid formulas are used to substitute milk in infants. Soy-based formulas are often utilized in resource-limited settings. Tolerance to the protein develops over time and periodic reintroduction should be attempted every six months after the initial one year of elimination diet. Oral immunotherapy is a newer treatment technique for IgE-mediated disease. There is no firm evidence on prevention apart from recommending breast feeding in early life along with initiating complementary feeding between 4-6 mo age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy (IgE-CMA) is one of the first allergies to arise in early childhood and may result from exposure to various milk allergens, of which β-lactoglobulin (BLG) and casein are the most important. Understanding the underlying mechanisms behind IgE-CMA is imperative for the discovery of novel biomarkers and the design of innovative treatment and prevention strategies. METHODS We report a longitudinal in vivo murine model, in which two mice strains (BALB/c and C57Bl/6) were sensitized to BLG using either cholera toxin or an oil emulsion (n = 6 per group). After sensitization, mice were challenged orally, their clinical signs monitored, antibody (IgE and IgG1) and cytokine levels (IL-4 and IFN-γ) measured, and fecal samples subjected to metabolomics. The results of the murine models were further extrapolated to fecal microbiome-metabolome data from our population of IgE-CMA (n = 22) and healthy (n = 23) children (Trial: NCT04249973), on which polar metabolomics, lipidomics and 16S rRNA metasequencing were performed. In vitro gastrointestinal digestions and multi-omics corroborated the microbial origin of proposed metabolic changes. RESULTS During mice sensitization, we observed multiple microbially derived metabolic alterations, most importantly bile acid, energy and tryptophan metabolites, that preceded allergic inflammation. We confirmed microbial dysbiosis, and its associated effect on metabolic alterations in our patient cohort, through in vitro digestions and multi-omics, which was accompanied by metabolic signatures of low-grade inflammation. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that gut dysbiosis precedes allergic inflammation and nurtures a chronic low-grade inflammation in children on elimination diets, opening important new opportunities for future prevention and treatment strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Formulas made from hydrolyzed rice proteins (HRPF) are well-tolerated plant-based alternatives to cow's milk protein (CMP)-based formulas for the dietary management of paediatric patients with CMP allergy (CMPA). Growth in patients with CMPA fed with HRPF has been evaluated in several studies with conflicting results. The aim was to evaluate the growth pattern of children with CMPA over a 12-month follow-up period. METHODS Prospective cohort study evaluating growth patterns in challenge proven CMPA paediatric patients receiving HRPF for 12 months. Outcomes were anthropometry (body weight, body length, head circumference), adherence to the study formula and occurrence of adverse events (AEs). RESULTS Sixty-six children were included and completed the 12-month study. At baseline, all CMPA patients were weaned. For the entire CMPA pediatric patients' cohort, from baseline to the end of the study period, the growth pattern resulted within the normal range of World Health Organization (WHO) growth references. The formula was well tolerated. Adherence was optimal and no AEs related to HRPF use were reported. CONCLUSIONS HRPF is well tolerated and can help support healthy growth and development in infants and young children with CMPA. These type of formula can be given with complementary foods in the dietary management of CMPA.

Abstract
Amino acid formula (AAF) is increasingly consumed in infants with cow's milk protein allergy; however, the long-term influences on health are less described. In this study, we established a mouse model by subjecting neonatal mice to an amino acid diet (AAD) to mimic the feeding regimen of infants on AAF. Surprisingly, AAD-fed mice exhibited dysbiotic microbiota and increased neuronal activity in both the intestine and brain, as well as gastrointestinal peristalsis disorders and depressive-like behavior. Furthermore, fecal microbiota transplantation from AAD-fed mice or AAF-fed infants to recipient mice led to elevated neuronal activations and exacerbated depressive-like behaviors compared to that from normal chow-fed mice or cow's-milk-formula-fed infants, respectively. Our findings highlight the necessity to avoid the excessive use of AAF, which may influence the neuronal development and mental health of children.

Abstract
Most children with milk and egg allergy are nonreactive to modified forms of milk and egg in bakery products such as muffins because of conformational changes in proteins. These baked milk (BM) and baked egg (BE) diets have become commonplace in the management of milk and egg allergy, respectively. Current laboratory- and skin test-based diagnostic approaches remain limited in their ability to predict BM/BE tolerance, resulting in various approaches to introduce these foods. One approach to introduce BM/BE is to offer a medically supervised oral food challenge and then advise dietary introduction of baked products for children who have tolerance. Another approach is adapted from a home-based protocol of graded ingestion of BM or BE originally intended for non-IgE mediated allergy, often referred to as a "ladder." The ladder advises home ingestion of increasing amounts of BM or BE. For children who have allergy to BM or BE, the ladder is essentially oral immunotherapy, although not always labeled or recognized as such. Risk assessment and education of patients suitable for home introduction are essential. A home approach that may be called a ladder can also be used to escalate diets after demonstrated tolerance of baked forms by introducing lesser cooked forms of milk or egg after tolerating BM or BE. A randomized controlled trial provided clear evidence that baked diets can hasten the resolution of IgE-mediated milk allergy. Moreover, BM/BE foods have an emerging role in the treatment of non-IgE-mediated allergy. There is tangential evidence for BM and BE diets in the prevention of IgE-mediated allergy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cow's milk allergy (CMA) is the most common food allergy in infants. As this food allergy indicates a wide range of clinical syndromes due to immunological reactions to cow's milk proteins, we aimed to evaluate the status of micronutrients in infants suffering from cow's milk allergy. METHODS In this historical cohort study, infants with CMA were divided into two equal groups: breastfeeding and diet formula feeding. Data were gathered by a form, including the micronutrients such as iron, selenium, calcium, phosphorus, zinc, and vitamin D. Groups were compared and data were analyzed by the IBM SPSS version 21. RESULTS This study involved 60 six-month-old infants, and the findings revealed no significant difference between the two groups concerning magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, and vitamin D. However, infants in the formula-feeding group exhibited significantly elevated mean serum levels of iron and selenium, whereas breastfed infants displayed higher levels of calcium. CONCLUSION The findings of this research revealed a significant difference in calcium, selenium, and iron levels between formula-fed and breastfed infants, even though all variables were within the normal range for both groups. In light of these results, conducting further studies with a larger sample size and extended follow-up periods becomes imperative.

Cow's milk allergy is a common food allergy, with the milk protein αS1-casein being a major allergen. This study aimed to investigate differences in sensitization between cow and goat αS1-CN. Cow and goat αS1-CN were labeled with fluorescent dyes and given to mice sensitized with cholera toxin adjuvant. Both proteins reached immune organs, suggesting no major difference in digestion. However, compared with goat αS1-CN, cow αS1-CN is more readily taken up by dendritic cells, inducing dendritic cell maturation. Furthermore, cow αS1-CN can more effectively induce the generation of Th2 cells, leading to a higher production of specific IgE. In a Caco-2/RBL-2H3 cell model, cow αS1-CN caused more mast cell degranulation and loss of epithelial barrier integrity than goat αS1-CN. In summary, this study found differences in immune responses between cow and goat milk αS1-CN. Cow αS1-CN elicited stronger dendritic cell and Th2 responses, leading to increased mast cell degranulation.

Abstract
Allergic diseases and lipid-metabolism-disorder-derived diseases are both significant public health issues. Recent studies have shown that exosomes are associated with the course of allergic diseases and are involved in lipid metabolism. In this study, exosomes derived from cow's milk allergic (CMA) mice medially loaded lesser proteins favoring cholesterol metabolism. The levels of total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) in the serum were increased in the CMA mice, and hepatic lipid deposition was observed in the liver, but these phenomena were improved by inhibiting the exosome release. Specifically, the higher expression of the sterol regulatory element binding factor 2 (SREBP2) protein and HMGCR gene in the liver of CMA mice indicated an increase in cholesterol synthesis. NPC1L1 was also highly expressed in the small intestine of CMA mice, and fecal TC level was decreased, suggesting that the reabsorption of cholesterol was elevated. The biosynthesis of cholesterol, the reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) process, and the synthesis of bile acid in the liver were improved by inhibiting exosome release, as well as the reabsorption of cholesterol in the small intestine. This study has for the first time demonstrated the lipid metabolism disorder caused by CMA, especially the important role of exosomes in food allergies and lipid metabolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Food allergy (FA) is an inappropriate immunological response to food proteins resulting from an impaired induction of oral tolerance. Various early environmental factors can affect the establishment of intestinal homeostasis, predisposing to FA in early life. In this context, we aimed to assess the effect of chronic perinatal exposure to food-grade titanium dioxide (fg-TiO2 ), a common food additive. METHODS Dams were fed a control versus fg-TiO2 -enriched diet from preconception to weaning, and their progeny received the same diet at weaning. A comprehensive analysis of baseline intestinal and systemic homeostasis was performed in offspring 1 week after weaning by assessing gut barrier maturation and microbiota composition, and local and systemic immune system and metabolome. The effect of fg-TiO2 on the susceptibility of progeny to develop oral tolerance versus FA to cow's milk proteins (CMP) was performed starting at the same baseline time-point, using established models. Sensitization to CMP was investigated by measuring β-lactoglobulin and casein-specific IgG1 and IgE antibodies, and elicitation of the allergic reaction by measuring mouse mast cell protease (mMCP1) in plasma collected after an oral food challenge. RESULTS Perinatal exposure to fg-TiO2 at realistic human doses led to an increased propensity to develop FA and an impaired induction of oral tolerance only in young males, which could be related to global baseline alterations in intestinal barrier, gut microbiota composition, local and systemic immunity, and metabolism. CONCLUSIONS Long-term perinatal exposure to fg-TiO2 alters intestinal homeostasis establishment and predisposes to food allergy, with a clear gender effect.

Abstract
Cow's milk allergy (CMA) is common in early childhood and the incidence is increasing. However, its mechanisms of action are still not fully understood due to the range of different clinical symptoms. So far, the development of different mouse models has been the best choice to study the molecular mechanisms triggering allergy. However, the selection of suitable strains for the establishment of animal models truly representative of associated human pathologies is still a challenge. Hence, we focused on both C3H/HeNCrl and BALB/c mice to characterize their susceptibility to CMA. After intraperitoneal sensitization, BALB/c and C3H/HeNCrl strains were challenged with β-lactoglobulin (BLG), and compared in allergic symptoms and active immune response, which assessed by specific antibody production and cytokine release. At first, both groups exhibited anaphylaxis, showed specific BLG-related IgE, Th2 response and seemed both suitable for the development of CMA models. However, a detailed analysis revealed that BALB/c had both stronger humoral and Th2 immune responses, producing more antibodies (IgE and IgG/IgG1/IgG2a), and releasing higher levels of Th2-associated cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, IL-13) compared to C3H/HeNCrl mice. Therefore, BALB/c strain would represent a preferential choice in the establishment of CMA models. This study highlights the subtle differences and major outcomes in the selection of mouse strains for the development of suitable food allergy models.

Abstract
The increasing prevalence of IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy (CMA) in childhood is a worldwide health concern. There is a growing awareness that the gut microbiome (GM) might play an important role in CMA development. Therefore, treatment with probiotics and prebiotics has gained popularity. This systematic review provides an overview of the alterations of the GM, metabolome, and immune response in CMA children and animal models, including post-treatment modifications. MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for studies on GM in CMA-diagnosed children, published before 1 March 2023. A total of 21 articles (13 on children and 8 on animal models) were included. The studies suggest that the GM, characterized by an enrichment of the Clostridia class and reductions in the Lactobacillales order and Bifidobacterium genus, is associated with CMA in early life. Additionally, reduced levels of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and altered amino acid metabolism were reported in CMA children. Commonly used probiotic strains belong to the Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus genera. However, only Bifidobacterium levels were consistently upregulated after the intervention, while alterations of other bacteria taxa remain inconclusive. These interventions appear to contribute to the restoration of SCFAs and amino acid metabolism balance. Mouse models indicate that these interventions tend to restore the Th 2/Th 1 balance, increase the Treg response, and/or silence the overall pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine response. Overall, this systematic review highlights the need for multi-omics-related research in CMA children to gain a mechanistic understanding of this disease and to develop effective treatments and preventive strategies.

Abstract
Due to its very early introduction, cow's milk is one of the first foods that can cause adverse reactions in human beings. Lactose intolerance (LI) and cow's milk allergy (CMA) are the most common adverse reactions to cow's milk. While LI is due to insufficient small intestinal lactase activity and/or a large quantity of ingested lactose, CMA is an aberrant immune reaction to cow's milk proteins, particularly casein or β-lactoglobulin. However, the clinical manifestations of LI and CMA, particularly their gastrointestinal signs and symptoms, are very similar, which might lead to misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis as well as nutritional risks due to inappropriate dietary interventions or unnecessary dietary restriction. Formula-fed infants with LI should be treated with formula with reduced or no lactose, while those with CMA should be treated with formula containing extensive hydrolyzed cow's milk protein or amino acids. This review is therefore written to assist clinicians to better understand the pathophysiologies of LI and CMA as well as to recognize the similarities and differences between clinical manifestations of LI and CMA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amino acids (AAs) are important protein building blocks that play a critical role in the function of the immune system. However, comprehensive comparative metabolomics and antigenicity analyses of cow milk (CM) and enzymatically treated CM are relatively scarce. This study analyzed the AAs in the CM and Flavourzyme-treated milk groups (FT), and their antigenicity was also explored. RESULTS Overall, 50 AAs were detected in the CM and FT groups, with 23 significantly different AAs. The interaction network of these significantly different AAs was analyzed, and 34 significantly different metabolic pathways were found to be involved. It was also found that the antigenicity of the FT group was significantly reduced in comparison with that of the CM group. CONCLUSION These results enhance our understanding of AAs and antigenicity regarding CM and FT, and provide new ideas and directions for the development of high-quality hypoallergenic dairy products. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the changes of gut microbiota and allergic inflammation in mice with allergic enteritis caused by milk protein. In this study, female BALB\C mice in the whey protein (WP-sensitized) group were gavaged with WP and normal saline, the sham-sensitized group was given normal saline once a week for 5 weeks. One week later, the WP-sensitized mice were administered 60 mg β-lactoglobulin (BLG). The results showed that mice's body weight decreased, feces with loose and bloody, and systemic allergic reactions and ear swelling increased in the WP-sensitized group. The levels of WP-specific Ig, mMCP-1, calprotectin of feces, and inflammation-related factors in the WP-sensitized group were increased. WP-sensitized group intestine tissues were damaged severely and the expressions of ZO-1, Claudin-1, and Occludin reduced. The results of 16S rRNA sequencing showed that there were differences in operational taxonomic units (OUT) levels of gut microbes between the two groups, o_Clostridiales, c_Clostridia, and f_Lachnospiraceae were more abundant in the WP-sensitized group. In conclusion, the WP sensitization can induce the allergic inflammation, intestinal injury and intestinal barrier dysfunction in mice, and the gut microbes were also changed, which provided a reference for the treatment of WP-sensitized mice.

Abstract
Food allergy is very common throughout the world and has become a major public health problem, with 220 million people suffering from it. Food allergy has been disproportionately observed in people from industrialized or Western countries and was previously considered to predominate in the pediatric versus adult population. However, the current exponential growth of the adult population and older adults, especially in Western countries, and environmental and lifestyle changes, have profoundly changed the epidemiology of food allergy, with a growing increase even at advanced ages. The foods that represent the greatest severity and clinical impact are peanuts, walnuts, fish, shellfish, eggs, cow's milk protein, wheat, soy and seeds. Although some types of food allergies (cow's milk and egg) may disappear, peanut and tree nut allergies may persist into adulthood. The control or cure of cow's milk protein allergy is gradual throughout childhood and adolescence. Despite the predominance of allergy to fish, shellfish, peanuts, and tree nuts in most reactions in adults, the most common form of IgE-mediated food allergy is oral allergy syndrome or pollen allergy syndrome. food.

Abstract
Human milk is the gold standard for infant nutrition, and breastfeeding should be started within the first hour of life. Cow's milk, other mammalian milk, or plant-based beverages should not be offered before 1 year of age. However, some infants require, at least in part, infant formulas. Even with subsequent enhancements throughout history, with the addition of oligosaccharides, probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, and postbiotics, infant formulas still have room for improvement in reducing the health gap between breastfed and formula-fed infants. In this regard, the complexity of infant formulas is expected to continue to increase as the knowledge of how to modulate the development of the gut microbiota is better understood. The objective of this study was to perform a non-systematic review of the effect of different milk scenarios on the gut microbiota.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately 50%-90% of children with immediate-type cow's milk allergy (CMA) acquire tolerance by pre-school age. We aimed to investigate the acquisition rate of CMA tolerance in children aged 6-12 years. METHODS We included children with CMA who persisted until the age of 6. Tolerance was defined as passing an oral food challenge with 200 mL of unheated cow's milk (CM) or consuming 200 mL of CM without symptoms, whereas persistent CMA was defined as fulfilling neither of these criteria by 12 years old. Children receiving oral immunotherapy (OIT) were excluded from the primary analysis. Risk factors associated with persistent CMA were assessed using Cox regression analysis. RESULTS Of 80 included children, 30 (38%) had previous CM anaphylaxis, and 40 (50%) had eliminated CM completely from their diet. The median CM-specific immunoglobulin E (sIgE) level at 6 years old was 12.0 kUA /L. Tolerance was acquired by 25 (31%) and 46 (58%) children by the age of 9 and 12 years, respectively. At baseline, persistent CMA was associated with higher CM-sIgE levels (hazard ratio 2.29, 95% confidence interval 1.41-3.73, optimal cutoff level 12.7 kUA /L), previous CM anaphylaxis (2.07, 1.06-4.02), and complete CM elimination (3.12, 1.46-6.67). No children with CMA who had all three risk factors (n = 14) acquired tolerance. CONCLUSION Except for OIT patients, more than half of children with CMA at 6 years old acquired tolerance by 12 years old. Children with CMA who have the risk factors are less likely to acquire tolerance.

Abstract
All allergic responses to food indicate the failure of immunological tolerance, but it is unclear why cow's milk and egg (CME) allergies resolve more readily than reactivity to peanuts (PN). We sought to identify differences between PN and CME allergies through constitutive immune status and responses to cognate and non-cognate food antigens. Children with confirmed allergy to CME (n = 6) and PN (n = 18) and non-allergic (NA) (n = 8) controls were studied. Constitutive secretion of cytokines was tested in plasma and unstimulated mononuclear cell (PBMNC) cultures. Blood dendritic cell (DC) subsets were analyzed alongside changes in phenotypes and soluble molecules in allergen-stimulated MNC cultures with or without cytokine neutralization. We observed that in allergic children, constitutively high plasma levels IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5 and IL-10 but less IL-12p70 than in non-allergic children was accompanied by the spontaneous secretion of sCD23, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, IL-12p70, IFN-γ and TNF-α in MNC cultures. Furthermore, blood DC subset counts differed in food allergy. Antigen-presenting cell phenotypic abnormalities were accompanied by higher B and T cell percentages with more Bcl-2 within CD69+ subsets. Cells were generally refractory to antigenic stimulation in vitro, but IL-4 neutralization led to CD152 downregulation by CD4+ T cells from PN allergic children responding to PN allergens. Canonical discriminant analyses segregated non-allergic and allergic children by their cytokine secretion patterns, revealing differences and areas of overlap between PN and CME allergies. Despite an absence of recent allergen exposure, indication of in vivo activation, in vitro responses independent of challenging antigen and the presence of unusual costimulatory molecules suggest dysregulated immunity in food allergy. Most importantly, higher Bcl-2 content within key effector cells implies survival advantage with the potential to mount abnormal responses that may give rise to the manifestations of allergy. Here, we put forward the hypothesis that the lack of apoptosis of key immune cell types might be central to the development of food allergic reactions.

Abstract
Cow's milk is the most widely used ingredient in infant formulas. However, its specific protein composition can cause allergic reactions. Finding alternatives to replace cow's milk and fill the nutritional gap with human milk is essential for the health of infants. Proteomic and peptidomic techniques have supported the elucidation of milk's nutritional ingredients. Recently, omics approaches have attracted increasing interest in the investigation of milk because of their high throughput, precision, sensitivity, and reproducibility. This review offers a significant overview of recent developments in proteomics and peptidomics used to study the differences in human, cow, and donkey milk. All three types of milks were identified to have critical biological functions in human health, particularly in infants. Donkey milk proteins were closer in composition to human milk, were less likely to cause allergic reactions, and may be developed as novel raw materials for formula milk powders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many infants are fed infant formulas to promote growth. Some formulas have a high protein content (≥ 2.5 g per 100 kcal) to accelerate weight gain during the first year of life. The risk-benefit balance of these formulas is unclear. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the benefits and harms of higher protein intake versus lower protein intake in healthy, formula-fed term infants. SEARCH METHODS We searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, LILACS, OpenGrey, clinical trial registries, and conference proceedings in October 2022. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of healthy formula-fed infants (those fed only formula and those given formula as a complementary food). We included infants of any sex or ethnicity who were fed infant formula for at least three consecutive months at any time from birth. We excluded quasi-randomized trials, observational studies, and infants with congenital malformations or serious underlying diseases. We defined high protein content as 2.5 g or more per 100 kcal, and low protein content as less than 1.8 g per 100 kcal (for exclusive formula feeding) or less than 1.7 g per 100 kcal (for complementary formula feeding). DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Four review authors independently assessed the risk of bias and extracted data from trials, and a fifth review author resolved discrepancies. We performed random-effects meta-analyses, calculating risk ratios (RRs) or Peto odds ratios (Peto ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for dichotomous outcomes, and mean differences (MDs) with 95% CIs for continuous outcomes. We used the GRADE approach to evaluate the certainty of the evidence. MAIN RESULTS We included 11 RCTs (1185 infants) conducted in high-income countries. Seven trials (1629 infants) compared high-protein formula against standard-protein formula, and four trials (256 infants) compared standard-protein formula against low-protein formula. The longest follow-up was 11 years. High-protein formula versus standard-protein formula We found very low-certainty evidence that feeding healthy term infants high-protein formula compared to standard-protein formula has little or no effect on underweight (MD in weight-for-age z-score 0.05 SDs, 95% CI -0.09 to 0.19; P = 0.51, I2 = 61%; 7 studies, 1629 participants), stunting (MD in height-for-age z-score 0.15 SDs, 95% CI -0.05 to 0.35; P = 0.14, I2 = 73%; 7 studies, 1629 participants), and wasting (MD in weight-for-height z-score -0.12 SDs, 95% CI -0.31 to 0.07; P = 0.20, I2 = 94%; 7 studies, 1629 participants) in the first year of life. We found very low-certainty evidence that feeding healthy infants high-protein formula compared to standard-protein formula has little or no effect on the occurrence of overweight (RR 1.26, 95% CI 0.63 to 2.51; P = 0.51; 1 study, 1090 participants) or obesity (RR 1.96, 95% CI 0.59 to 6.48; P = 0.27; 1 study, 1090 participants) at five years of follow-up. No studies reported all-cause mortality. Feeding healthy infants high-protein formula compared to standard-protein formula may have little or no effect on the occurrence of adverse events such as diarrhea, vomiting, or milk hypersensitivity (RR 0.93, 95% CI 0.76 to 1.13; P = 0.44, I2 = 0%; 4 studies, 445 participants; low-certainty evidence) in the first year of life. Standard-protein formula versus low-protein formula We found very low-certainty evidence that feeding healthy infants standard-protein formula compared to low-protein formula has little or no effect on underweight (MD in weight-for-age z-score 0.0, 95% CI -0.43 to 0.43; P = 0.99, I2 = 81%; 4 studies, 256 participants), stunting (MD in height-for-age z-score -0.01, 95% CI -0.36 to 0.35; P = 0.96, I2 = 73%; 4 studies, 256 participants), and wasting (MD in weight-for-height z-score 0.13, 95% CI -0.29 to 0.56; P = 0.54, I2 = 95%; 4 studies, 256 participants) in the first year of life. No studies reported overweight, obesity, or all-cause mortality. Feeding healthy infants standard-protein formula compared to low-protein formula may have little or no effect on the occurrence of adverse events such as diarrhea, vomiting, or milk hypersensitivity (Peto OR 1.55, 95% CI 0.70 to 3.40; P = 0.28, I2 = 0%; 2 studies, 206 participants; low-certainty evidence) in the first four months of life. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS We are unsure if feeding healthy infants high-protein formula compared to standard-protein formula has an effect on undernutrition, overweight, or obesity. There may be little or no difference in the risk of adverse effects between infants fed with high-protein formula versus those fed with standard-protein formula. We are unsure if feeding healthy infants standard-protein formula compared to low-protein formula has any effect on undernutrition. There may be little or no difference in the risk of adverse effects between infants fed with standard-protein formula versus those fed with low-protein formula. The findings of six ongoing studies and two studies awaiting classification studies may change the conclusions of this review.

Abstract
The evaluation of secondary parameters of a prospective, randomised, controlled, multicentre intervention trial aimed to analyse gastrointestinal tolerance of an infant formula manufactured from extensively hydrolysed whey protein (eHF) compared to intact cow's milk protein (control formula, CF) in healthy term infants. Infants ≤ 25 days of age, who were exclusively formula-fed, were randomised to receive eHF or CF for at least three months up to 120 days of age. An exclusively breastfed reference group (BF) was included for descriptive comparison. Infants' gastrointestinal tolerance was evaluated based on stool parameters, the Amsterdam Infant Stool Scale (AISS), the Infant Gastrointestinal Symptom Questionnaire (IGSQ), and sleeping patterns. Of 359 infants included, 297 randomised (eHF: n = 149, CF: n = 148) and 41 BF infants completed the study per protocol. All tolerance parameters were comparable between eHF and CF. Stool was predominantly soft and yellow in colour. Stool was more frequently green in eHF than CF. BF infants had more frequent stools, which were mainly watery or soft and yellow, and comparable IGSQ scores (descriptive). Irrespective of group, all gastrointestinal and sleep parameters showed signs of maturation with increasing age. In conclusion, eHF showed gastrointestinal tolerance as good as CF in healthy infants. Both formulae were well-tolerated.

Abstract
Food allergies are adverse immune reactions to food proteins in the absence of oral tolerance, and the incidence of allergies to food, including peanut, cow's milk, and shellfish, has been increasing globally. Although advancements have been made toward understanding the contributions of the type 2 immune response to allergic sensitization, crosstalk between these immune cells and neurons of the enteric nervous system is an area of emerging interest in the pathophysiology of food allergy, given the close proximity of neuronal cells of the enteric nervous system and type 2 effector cells, including eosinophils and mast cells. At mucosal sites, such as the gastrointestinal tract, neuroimmune interactions contribute to the sensing and response to danger signals from the epithelial barrier. This communication is bidirectional, as immune cells express receptors for neuropeptides and transmitters, and neurons express cytokine receptors, allowing for the detection of and response to inflammatory insults. In addition, it seems that neuromodulation of immune cells including mast cells, eosinophils, and innate lymphoid cells is critical for amplification of the type 2 allergic immune response. As such, neuroimmune interactions may be critical targets for future food allergy therapies. This review evaluates the contributions of local enteric neuroimmune interactions to the underlying immune response in food allergy and discusses considerations for future investigations into targeting neuroimmune pathways for treatment of food allergies.

Abstract
Food allergies have become a health concern worldwide. Around 6% to 10% of children are allergic to cow's milk proteins. We have previously characterized colorectal polyps in patients sensitized to food allergens. These polyps are classified as inflammatory and present a type 2 environment, with elevated interleukin (IL)-13 and IL-4, and are a site of immunoglobulin E synthesis. In this study, we characterized and isolated cow's milk protein-specific T cell lines and T cell clones from the lamina propria of polyps from patients sensitized to these proteins. Isolated T cells responded to cow's milk proteins similarly to peripheral blood T cells, showing antigen-specific cell proliferation and Th2 cytokines release in vitro. T cell clones obtained were all CD4+ T cells and expressed the membrane TCRαβ receptor and secreted higher IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 amounts than unstimulated cells, whereas interferon γ secretion remained unchanged. Remarkably, the gut homing chemokine receptor CCR9 was augmented in cow's milk-specific peripheral and lamina propria T cells, and CCL25 was found to be expressed in the inflammatory polyp tissue and not in the adjacent mucosa. In conclusion, we isolated and characterized cow's milk-specific lamina propria CD4+ Th2 cells from colonic inflammatory polyps. CCR9 expression on these cells, along with increase secretion of CCL25 in the polyp, favors recruitment and cow's milk-specific allergic response within the inflammatory polyp tissue. Our findings may be critical to understand the underlying mechanism that promotes immunoglobulin E synthesis in the colon of cow's milk proteins allergic patients, contributing to the development of novel T cell-targeted immunotherapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human infants develop IgG responses to dietary antigens during the first 2 years of life. Yet, the source of these antibodies is unclear. In previous studies we reported on the thymus as a unique functional niche for plasma cells (PCs) specific to environmental antigens. OBJECTIVE We sought to examine whether PCs specific to dietary antigens are detected in the infant thymus. METHODS We tested IgG reactivity to 112 food antigens and allergens in the serum of 20 neonates and infants using microarrays. The presence of PC-secreting IgG specific to the most prominent antigens was then assessed among thymocytes in the same cohort. Using an LC-MS proteomics approach, we looked for traces of these antigens in the thymus. RESULTS Our studies first confirmed that cow's milk proteins are prevalent targets of serum IgG in early life. Subjects with the highest serum IgG titers to cow's milk proteins also harbored IgG-producing PCs specific to the same antigens in the thymic niche. Furthermore, we detected multiple peptide fragments of cow's milk antigens in the thymus. Lastly, we verified that both serum IgG and IgG secreted by thymic PCs recognized the peptide epitopes found in the thymus. CONCLUSIONS Our studies reveal the presence of antibody-secreting PCs specific to common dietary antigens in the infant thymus. The presence of these antigens in the thymus suggested that activation and differentiation of specific PCs occurred in this organ. Further studies are now warranted to evaluate the possible implication of these cells in tolerance to dietary antigens.

Abstract
Cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA), one of the most prevalent food allergies, seriously affects the growth and development of infants and children with the rising incidence and prevalence. The dysbiosis of intestinal flora acts to promote disease including allergic disease. Therefore, studying the role of intestinal flora in allergic diseases holds great promise for developing effective strategies to mitigate the risk of food allergies. This study aims to elucidate the role of disrupted intestinal flora and its metabolites in children with CMPA.16S rDNA sequence analysis was applied to characterize the changes in the composition of intestinal flora. The findings revealed heightened diversity of intestinal flora in CMPA, marked by decreased abundance of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, and increased abundance of Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria. Furthermore, metabolite analysis identified a total of 1245 differential metabolites in children with CMPA compared to those in healthy children. Among these, 765 metabolites were down-regulated, while 480 were up-regulated. Notably, there were 10 negative differential metabolites identified as bile acids and derivatives, including second bile acids, such as deoxycholic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid and isoursodexycholic acid. The intestinal barrier was further analyzed and showed that the enterocytes proliferation and the expression of Claudin-1, Claudin-3 and MUC2 were down-regulated with the invasion of biofilm community members in the CMPA group. In summary, these findings provide compelling evidence that food allergies disrupt intestinal flora and its metabolites, consequently damaging the intestinal barrier's integrity to increase intestinal permeability and immune response.

Abstract
Bovine β-lactoglobulin (BLG) is a common allergen found in milk, and the immunoglobulin E (IgE) epitope plays a crucial role in cow milk allergy. Therefore, targeting the IgE epitope could be useful in accurately detecting BLG and assessing its allergenicity. However, producing an IgE epitope-specific antibody (IgE-EsAb) through traditional methods requires complex and time-consuming procedures. Here, IgE-EsAb was purified from rabbit anti-BLG sera by immunomagnetic beads in one step. Then, a sandwich ELISA (sELISA) based on the IgE-EsAb was developed to detect BLG and predict the potential milk allergenicity in foods. The obtained IgE-EsAb could specifically recognize the target IgE epitope of BLG and exhibited high affinity and specificity. The developed IgE-EsAb-based sELISA demonstrated an ultra-wide linear range of 3.9-1.28 × 105 ng/mL, with a limit of detection of 0.49 ng/mL for BLG. Additionally, the proposed immunoassay showed high specificity and recoveries (91.24-109.61%). The ability of the IgE-EsAb-based sELISA to evaluate the potential milk allergenicity in foods was validated using sera from cow milk allergy patients. These results suggest that immunomagnetic beads are an effective tool for rapidly obtaining the IgE-EsAb, and our proposed sELISA could be a reliable and user-friendly method for monitoring trace amounts of BLG and predicting the potential milk allergenicity of food samples.

Abstract
This chapter examines how innovative and emerging food processing technologies, such as those that use heat, electricity, electromagnetic waves, and pressure, can modify protein denaturation, aggregation, and intermolecular interactions pathways, which can result in varying immunoreactive responses. It emphasizes the need to understand how these processing methods affect the protein epitopes recognized by antibodies and their respective priming pathways, especially during the sensitization stage that precedes an allergic response. Although traditional processing methods have been investigated, the impact of novel technologies on food protein allergenicity remains largely unknown. The chapter specifically focuses on milk proteins, which have clinical significance and are associated with cow's milk allergy, one of the most common food allergies in young children. Additionally, it examines potential scientific advancements that novel processing methods may bring to this field.

Abstract
A single-arm study was conducted with 10 children aged 2-12 years with severe cow's milk allergy (CMA) requiring complete allergen elimination. Subjects were administered kestose, a prebiotic, at 1 or 2 g/day for 12 weeks. Results of a subsequent oral food challenge (OFC) showed a statistically significant increase in the total dose of cow's milk ingestion (1.6 ml vs. 2.7 ml, p = 0.041). However, the overall evaluation of the OFC results, TS/Pro (total score of Anaphylaxis Scoring Aichi (ASCA)/cumulative dose of protein), showed no statistically significant improvement, although the values were nominally improved in seven out of 10 subjects. The 16S rDNA analysis of fecal samples collected from the subjects revealed a statistically significant increase in the proportion of Faecalibacterium spp. (3.8 % vs. 6.8%, p = 0.013), a type of intestinal bacterium that has been reported to be associated with food allergy. However, no statistically significant correlation was found between Faecalibacterium spp. abundance and the results of the OFC.

Abstract
For food-allergic patients, hypoallergenic formulas (HFs) are medically indicated, often a primary component of the diet and essential for patient safety, health, nutrition, and overall well-being. Yet, food allergy is not included among the conditions mandated for coverage under federal health programs and private health insurance. The 2022 infant formula crisis has affected many North American families and has particularly influenced patients with food allergies who rely on a limited number of safe HF brands to safely meet their nutritional needs for growth and development. The current formula shortage further highlights the longstanding difficulties faced by families with food allergies in accessing HF. Within this context, this article focuses on chronic barriers faced by patients with food allergies in accessing HF and proposes potential solutions. Legislation is desperately needed to address HF affordability through changes in insurance reimbursement and disparities in access to HF among individuals with food allergy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are conflicting associations reported between food allergies (FAs) and poor growth, with some indication that children with multiple FAs are at highest risk. OBJECTIVE We analyzed longitudinal weight-for-length (WFL) trajectories from our healthy cohort to evaluate growth in children with IgE-mediated FAs and food protein-induced allergic proctocolitis (FPIAP), a non-IgE-mediated FA. METHODS Our observational cohort of 903 healthy newborn infants was prospectively enrolled to evaluate the development of FAs. Longitudinal mixed effects modeling was used to compare differences in WFL among children with IgE-FA and FPIAP, compared with unaffected children, through age 2. RESULTS Among the 804 participants who met inclusion criteria, FPIAP cases had significantly lower WFL than unaffected controls during active disease, which resolved by 1 year of age. In contrast, children with IgE-FA had significantly lower WFL than unaffected controls after 1 year. We also found that children with IgE-FA to cow's milk had significantly lower WFL over the first 2 years of age. Children with multiple IgE-FAs had markedly lower WFL over the first 2 years of age. CONCLUSION Children with FPIAP have impaired growth during active disease in the first year of age which resolves, whereas children with IgE-FA, particularly those with multiple IgE-FA, have impaired growth more prominently after the first year of age. It may be appropriate to focus nutritional assessment and interventions accordingly during these higher risk periods in these patient populations.

Abstract
Cow's milk allergy (CMA) is an abnormal immune response that severely affects the nutritional supplementation of allergic infants. Currently, only a limited number of hypoallergenic formulas are available on the market, and these are only categorized according to their degree of hydrolysis, which still poses an allergy risk and cannot be consumed by CMA patients, especially infants. To address this issue, we developed a two-step hydrolysis hypoallergenic formula targeting destruction of allergen epitope from whey protein. Then, a comprehensive evaluation system was constructed, including peptidomics analysis, in vivo and in vitro allergenicity assessments, revealing allergic changes in the product from the epitope structure level to the immunological level. The results showed that 97.14% of hydrolyzed peptides from α-lactalbumin and β-lactoglobulin did not contain allergenic epitopes after treatment with trypsin and flavourzyme. In vitro and in vivo allergenicity assessment results confirmed that the two-step hydrolysis method effectively reduced the allergenicity of whey protein. Compared with the common milk powder, the hypoallergenic formula induced lower levels of basophil degranulation and relieved the body's anaphylactic symptoms caused by cow milk. This study provides a promising solution to the limited hypoallergenic formula problem and may benefit allergic infants who require nutritional supplements.

Abstract
Cow's milk is one of the "big eight" most common allergenic foods, and β-lactoglobulin and α-Lactalbumin in whey protein are two major allergens of cow's milk protein. An effective strategy for reducing the allergenicity of whey protein is needed. In the present study, protein-EGCG complexes were obtained through non-covalent interactions between untreated or sonicated whey protein isolate (WPI) and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), and the allergenicity of complexes was assessed in vivo. The results showed that SWPI-EGCG complex possesses low allergenicity in BALB/c mice. As compared with untreated WPI, SWPI-EGCG complex had less effect on the body weight and organ indexes. Moreover, SWPI-EGCG complex could alleviate the WPI induced allergic reactions and intestinal damage of mice by decreasing the secretion of IgE, IgG, histamine, mMCP-1, modulating the balance of Th1/Th2 and Treg/Th17 response, and increasing the diversity of intestinal flora and the relative abundances of probiotic bacteria. These findings indicate that the interaction of sonicated WPI with EGCG could reduce the allergenicity of WPI, which could provide a new strategy for reducing food allergenicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Food allergies (FA) are a growing problem in the pediatric population and clinical features differ according to the underlying immunological mechanisms. While the primary management strategy is to eliminate the culprit food from the diet, assessment of the potential nutritional risks of elimination is also an integral part of management. In cases that do not improve over time; if you have basic food allergies and multiple food allergies, this can also lead to negative nutritional consequences. The contribution of basic nutrients, economical and easily accessible foods to the diet, is critical and has an important place in meeting the daily adequate intake of many nutrients. In the presence of food allergy, it is necessary to meet the vitamins and minerals that cannot be obtained from allergic foods, with alternative sources or supplements. For example, insufficient calcium intake in cow's milk allergy (CMA), the most common FA in early childhood, is very likely if an alternative supplement has not been introduced. In the management of CMA, choosing the appropriate formula and/or supplement for the clinical characteristics of children, when necessary, has an important place. In conclusion, nutritional risk assessment of children with FA requires a comprehensive, detailed, and multidisciplinary approach.

Abstract
Most milk- and egg-allergic children can tolerate milk and egg in baked forms. Some allergists have extended the use of baked milk (BM) and baked egg (BE) to advocating for the stepwise introduction of small amounts of BM and BE to children who are reactive to larger amounts of BM and BE. Little is known about the practice of introducing BM and BE and existing barriers to this approach. The purpose of this study was to gather a current assessment of the implementation of BM and BE oral food challenges and diets for milk- and egg-allergic children. We conducted an electronic survey of North American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology members offering BM and BE introduction in 2021. The response rate was 10.1% of distributed surveys (72 of 711). Surveyed allergists had a similar approach to both BM and BE introduction. Demographic features of time in practice and region of practice were significantly associated with the odds of introducing BM and BE. A wide variety of tests and clinical features guided decisions. Some allergists determined BM and BE to be appropriate for home introduction and offered this for BM and BE more often than other foods. The use of BM and BE as a food for oral immunotherapy was endorsed by almost half of respondents. Less time in practice was the most significant factor associated with offering this approach. Published recipes were used and written information was widely provided to patients by most allergists. The wide practice variabilities reveal a need for more structured guidance about oral food challenges, in-office versus home procedures, and patient education.

Abstract
Cow's milk allergy can result in anaphylactic reactions. The estimated prevalence of cow's milk allergy in developed countries ranges from 0.5% to 3% at age 1 year. Our objective was to perform a systematic review and, if possible, a meta-analysis to assess the frequency of fatal and recurrent anaphylaxis induced by cow's milk. We searched PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Web of Science for studies that had assessed fatal and recurrent anaphylaxis induced by cow's milk for the population of a country or at least an administrative region. Our review included cohort, cross-sectional, and registry studies that had assessed the incidence or prevalence of recurrent anaphylaxis or the incidence of fatal anaphylaxis due to cow's milk. The pooled prevalence of recurrence (PR) for at least an episode of anaphylaxis was 26.98% (3.85-189.1). Teymourpour et al (Iran) reported the highest PR (53.10%); the two studies with the lowest PR were from France (5.2 and 0.42, respectively) (p < .01). Nine studies on fatal anaphylaxis were selected (41 deaths) and found to be highly heterogeneous (I2 = 75.9%). Levy et al and Bassagio et al reported the highest incidence rate (IR 0.15 and 0.6 deaths per million persons-year). The PR of anaphylaxis was approximately one quarter of patients with anaphylaxis due to cow's milk, while deaths from anaphylaxis caused by cow's milk were very rare, although some studies report rates as high as 15 times the lowest IR.

Abstract
We aimed to demonstrate that healthy term infants experience noninferior growth with infant formula manufactured from extensively hydrolysed whey protein (eHF) compared to intact cow's milk protein (control formula, CF). This prospective, randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, controlled, multicentre trial included healthy term infants who were exclusively formula-fed. Infants ≤ 25 days of age received eHF or CF for at least three months up to 120 days of age, with a follow-up until 180 days of age. A reference group included exclusively breastfed infants (BF). Of 318 infants randomised, 297 (148 CF, 149 eHF) completed the study per protocol. Weight gain up to 120 days of age was noninferior (margin -3.0 g/day) in eHF (28.95 (95% CI: 27.21; 30.68) g/day) compared to CF (28.85 (95% CI: 27.10; 30.61) g/day) with a difference in means of 0.09 g/day and a lower limit of the one-sided 97.5% CI of -0.86 g/day (p < 0.0001 for noninferiority testing). Weight gain remained comparable during follow-up. Further anthropometric parameters did not differ between the infant formula groups throughout the study. Growth was comparable in BF. No relevant safety issues were observed. To conclude, eHF meets infant requirements for adequate growth during the first six months of life and can be considered safe and suitable.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Goat's milk thought to be a good substitute for cow's milk protein allergic (CMPA) individuals. However, there is growing evidence that their proteins have cross-reactivities with cow's milk allergens. This study aimed to profile and compare milk proteins from different goat breeds that have cross-reactivity to cow's milk allergens. METHODOLOGY Proteomics was used to compare protein extracts of skim milk from Saanen, Jamnapari, and Toggenburg. Cow's milk was used as a control. IgE-immunoblotting and mass spectrometry were used to compare and identify proteins that cross-reacted with serum IgE from CMPA patients (n = 10). RESULTS The analysis of IgE-reactive proteins revealed that the protein spots identified with high confidence were proteins homologous to common cow's milk allergens such as α-S1-casein (αS1-CN), β-casein (β-CN), κ-casein (κ-CN), and beta-lactoglobulin (β-LG). Jamnapari's milk proteins were found to cross-react with four major milk allergens: α-S1-CN, β-CN, κ-CN, and β-LG. Saanen goat's milk proteins, on the other hand, cross-reacted with two major milk allergens, α-S1-CN and β-LG, whereas Toggenburg goat's milk proteins only react with one of the major milk allergens, κ-CN. CONCLUSION These findings may help in the development of hypoallergenic goat milk through cross-breeding strategies of goat breeds with lower allergenic milk protein contents.

Abstract
This paper focuses on creating one-dimensional diffractive grooved structures of antigen proteins on glass substrates for the label-free detection of antibodies to dairy allergens. In particular, the fabrication of protein structures is carried out by combining microcontact printing with physisorption, imines coupling, and thiol-ene click chemistry. The work first sets up these patterning methods and discusses and compares the main aspects involved in them (structure, biolayer thickness, functionality, stability). Homogeneous periodic submicron structures of proteins are created and characterized by diffractive measurements, AFM, FESEM, and fluorescence scanning. Then, this patterning method is applied to proteins involved in cow milk allergy, and the resulting structures are implemented as optical transducers to sense specific immunoglobulins G. In particular, gratings of bovine serum albumin, casein, and β-lactoglobulin are created and assessed, reaching limits of detection in the range of 30-45 ng·mL-1 of unlabeled antibodies by diffractive biosensing.

Abstract
Children with cow's milk allergy (CMA) have lower bone mineral density and shorter height than children without CMA or non-food allergy (FA), and their final height is also affected. Appropriate nutritional guidance for CMA children is therefore needed. The purpose of this study was to conduct a dietary survey of CMA children and to compare their characteristics according to the degree of elimination. A dietary survey of FA children attending the allergy clinic at Shiga Medical Center for Children, Shiga, Japan, was conducted using the brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire for Japanese children and adolescents (BDHQ15y). To objectively assess the intake of fruit and vegetables, skin carotenoid levels were measured using the Veggie Meter®. Regarding the degree of CM elimination, of the 147 FA children (89 boys, 58 girls) recruited, 38, 27, and 82 children were allocated to complete-, partial-, and non-elimination groups, respectively. In analyzing the data, boys and girls were combined because there was no difference in sex ratio among the groups. Significantly lower intakes of calcium, animal proteins, and vitamin B2 were observed with increasing degree of CM elimination. Conversely, significantly greater intakes of vegetable proteins, β carotene, α tocopherol, vitamin C, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, as well as significantly higher levels of skin carotenoids, were observed with increasing degree of CM elimination. Intakes of many nutrients with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects were higher with increasing degree of CM elimination, presumably reflecting the efforts of caregivers in identifying alternative foods. However, calcium intake was still inadequate, indicating a need for further encouragement of calcium intake in CMA children.
