Beta-tryptase levels are high in SIDS infants, indicating that at least some cases of SIDS may be undiagnosed anaphylaxis.

PMID:  J Asthma Allergy. 2013 ;6:103-7. Epub 2013 Jul 4. PMID: 23847427 Abstract Title:  Infant anaphylaxis: the importance of early recognition. Abstract:  Anaphylaxis is an acute severe reaction involving multiple systems that results from a rapid release of inflammatory mediators. Patients with asthma and prior allergic reactions are at risk for anaphylaxis. Infants can present …

Vaccine allergic reactions are usually not to the microbial components of vaccines but the vaccine constituents.

PMID:  Pediatr Allergy Immunol. 2013 Sep ;24(6):521-6. Epub 2013 Jul 31. PMID: 23902374 Abstract Title:  Allergic reactions to vaccines. Abstract:  Anaphylactic reactions to vaccines are rare but do occur, and have been reported for nearly every vaccine. And while the reaction rate per each dose of vaccine is low, this is a common clinical question …

There is an increased risk of anaphylaxis associated with the 2009 AS03-adjuvanted monovalent pandemic A/H1N1 vaccine compared to seasonal influenza vaccines.

PMID:  Vaccine. 2013 Dec 5 ;31(50):5989-96. Epub 2013 Oct 19.

Environmental toxin exposures can alter the fetal epigenome, suggesting that allergy begins in utero.

PMID:  Pediatr Allergy Immunol. 2015 Aug ;26(5):394-402. PMID: 26011578 Abstract Title:  Does allergy begin in utero? Abstract:  It has been recognized for centuries that allergic disease runs in families, implying a role for genetic factors in determining individual susceptibility. More recently, a range of evidence shows that many of these genetic factors, together with in …
