An update on the diagnosis and management of non‐IgE‐mediated food allergies in children

Abstract

Abstract The spectrum of non‐IgE mediated conditions includes well‐defined conditions like Food Protein‐Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES), Eosinophilic Oesophagitis (EoE), Food Protein‐Induced Enteropathy, and Food Protein‐Induced Allergic Proctocolitis, but also the more controversial food protein‐induced dysmotility disorders like food protein‐induced gastroesophageal reflux disease (FPGORD) and food protein‐induced constipation (FPC). Typically, non‐IgE mediated reactions are delayed, with symptom onset from hours to days after exposure to a culprit food. The diagnosis is mostly clinical, and food elimination followed by reintroduction is the primary diagnostic method. Apart from EoE, the diagnosis of these conditions remains challenging, and there is a need to develop specific diagnostic tests. Acute FPIES presents with distinct symptoms, but misdiagnosis is common due to poor recognition. In contrast, some presentations, particularly FPGORD and FPC, overlap with the common, often benign disorders of gut–brain interaction, previously known as functional gastrointestinal disorders. This raises concerns about overdiagnosis and can lead to an unnecessary restrictive diet in infants and breastfeeding mothers. A systematic approach to an elimination diet and the support of a registered dietitian/nutritionist are recommended to ensure nutritional adequacy, suitable alternatives, promote timely introductions when appropriate, support breastfeeding where required as well as prevent nutritional deficiencies and feeding difficulties. This publication aims to provide an update on the spectrum of non‐IgE‐mediated food allergic conditions and intends to provide clinicians with practical guidance on the diagnosis and management of each condition. The authors acknowledge the need for further research in a range of areas to inform best evidence‐based practice. image
