Dr Brockow talked about WALDA (wheat allergy dependent on augmentation factors). cofactors: exercise, strong alcohol, less often aspirin. HWP in cosmetics may trigger later WALDA. Management: education, adrenaline, and gluten avoidance for 4 hours after the cofactors.

Dr Isabel Skypala highlighted hidden allergens (milk, sunflower seed, insects, pancakes, pasta/pizza, hemp) in idiopathic anaphylaxis. Cofactors like exercise, alcohol, and wheat amplify reactions. Never dismiss food allergy, even if it seems unlikely.

Dr. Madrigal discussed drug allergy mimicsāincluding CSU, ILO, psychogenic reactions, and infections like Strongyloides mimicking DRESS. Accurate, phenotype-driven evaluation and allergist involvement prevent misdiagnosis, unnecessary avoidance, and optimize patient care.

Dr. Kolkhir discussed IgE- and MRGPRX2-mediated reactions: IgE drives autoantibodies in AD/CSU; drug allergy testing is limited, often needing provocation. MRGPRX2 causes injection-site/anaphylactoid reactions. Anti-IgE therapy may aid drug administration.
