Incidence and natural history of hen's egg allergy in the first 2 years of life—the EuroPrevall birth cohort study

Abstract

The largest multinational European birth cohort study on food allergy with gold-standard diagnostic methods showed that the mean adjusted incidence of HEA was considerably lower than previously documented, although differences in incidence rates among countries were noted. Half of the children with documented HEA gained tolerance within 1 year postdiagnosis.
