DOI: 10.1111/pai.12826
Abstract: A minority of children reporting non‐immediate reactions to beta‐lactams (BLs) are allergic. Allergy workup usually includes late‐reading (48‐72 hours) skin tests (ST) and short (1‐3 days) drug provocation tests (DPT), regardless of the chronology of… read more here.

DOI: 10.2147/jaa.s367272
Abstract: Background Allergies against Hymenoptera venoms are a major cause of severe anaphylaxis. Risk assessment for subjects with suspected allergy is difficult because there are currently no biomarkers that predict the likelihood of high-grade anaphylaxis other… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/cancers13215468
Abstract: Simple Summary The development of hypersensitivity reactions to platinum agents in patients with gynecological cancers limits the use of platinum re-treatment for recurrent disease. In those patients who developed a hypersensitivity reactions during treatment with… read more here.
