Recommendation for itch assessment from the atopic itch consensus meeting (aicom)
CONCLUSION: For itch assessment, we recommend subjective evaluation by the patient using a rating scale. For infants and preschoolers, evaluation should be done by the caregiver using a checklist, combined with objective evaluation (of skin lesions, for example) by a physician. We anticipate that more objective itch assessment indices will be established in the future.PMID:38522931 | DOI:10.15036/arerugi.73.171 (Source: Allergology International)

Maculopapular cutaneous mastocytosis harboring a kit mutation (asp419del): a case report
Arerugi. 2024;73(2):189-195. doi: 10.15036/arerugi.73.189.ABSTRACTA 2-year-old, male patient presented with an 18-month history of scattered, brown macules and nodules up to 2 cm in size on his trunk and extremities. These macules were accompanied by pruritus and were positive for Darier's sign. A skin biopsy of a brown macule on the left thigh revealed a dense accumulation of CD117-positive, round or oval cells with amphophilic cytoplasm within the upper to middle dermis. The patient was otherwise healthy and had normal laboratory and imaging test results. Sequence analysis of genomic DNA from a skin biopsy demonstrated t...

Two cases of laryngeal edema caused by sublingual allergen immunotherapy
We report two cases of laryngeal edema as adverse reactions to sublingual immunotherapy, which could be continued due to a change in the administration method. Case 1 presents a 15-year-old male suspected to have had anaphylaxis due to the dust at the age of 6 years. He started treatment with Miticure® and developed laryngeal edema 30 minutes after taking the 10000JAU dose on the 10th day. laryngeal edema was treated with intravenous infusion. Case 2 presents a 48-year-old woman. She started treatment with Cidacure® and developed respiratory distress and laryngeal edema 1 hour after taking the 5000JAU dose on the 5th day...

Two cases of allergic vulvovaginitis diagnosed by direct microscopic urine sediment examination
Arerugi. 2024;73(2):201-205. doi: 10.15036/arerugi.73.201.ABSTRACTCedar pollen is known as a typical allergen that causes various allergic symptoms in the nasal mucosa, conjunctiva, and skin. However, inflammation of the vulvar mucosa due to sensitization to cedar pollen is not well-known. We experienced two cases in which the detection of cedar pollen during microscopic urine sediment examination led to the diagnosis of allergic vulvovaginitis caused by cedar pollen. The cases involved a 4-year-old girl and a 10-year-old girl. In both cases, the patients presented with chief complaints of pruritis in the vulva and insomni...

Is inhaled corticosteroid step-down recommended for adult asthma patients have been well controlled over the long term with moderate or high-dose inhaled corticosteroids?
Arerugi. 2024;73(2):206-212. doi: 10.15036/arerugi.73.206.ABSTRACTWe conducted a systematic review to examine whether step-down of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) is recommended for adult patients with asthma have been well controlled with moderate or high-dose inhaled corticosteroids for more than 12 weeks. Seven randomized controlled trials were included. ICS step-down did not increase asthma exacerbations requiring systemic steroid therapy and hospitalization. There was no effect on respiratory function, asthma control, or QOL. No significant differences were observed in serious adverse events or steroid-related adverse ev...
