An exploration of factors associated with food protein‐induced enterocolitis syndrome: Birth, infant feeding and food triggers

Abstract

Rice remains the most common trigger in Australia with co-associations between rice/oats and cow's milk/soya observed. This suggests that taxonomically related foods may share similar protein structure and trigger similar mechanisms of antigen recognition. Vaginal delivery may have a mild protective effect on the development of multiple FPIES and severe reactions. No other features from birth or infant-feeding history influenced outcomes in FPIES.
