Abstract:
The prevalence of food allergy in children has been increasing globally, resulting in a significant economic burden and seriously impacting the quality of life on children and their families. Domestic clinicians in China face challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric food allergy, with both underdiagnosis and overdiagnosis being common issues. Based on current domestic and international guidelines and research evidence, the first evidence-based guideline for pediatric food allergy covering diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and prevention was published in China, and provided recommendations on clinical hot topics. This article interpretated the diagnosis part of this guideline to enhance the understanding of allergists and pediatricians regarding the diagnosis of food allergy and improve the standardization of pediatric food allergy diagnosis and treatment in China.
