Values are presented as the number (%) or median (range).
Blood sampling occurred within 1 year of commencing consumption.
sIgE (crude), specific immunoglobin E titer to cow’s milk, and wheat
sIgE (component), specific immunoglobin E titer to casein (cow’s milk),
and ω-5 gliadin (wheat)
⊿ crude-sIgE and ⊿component-sIgE were defined as the rate of change
between sIgE before slow OIT and the first exercise.
Levels of 100 ≥kUA/L and ≤0.34 kUA/L were set to 100 kUA/L and 0.34
kUA/L, respectively.
The average pace of increasing intake was defined as the full dose minus
the initial dose, divided by the number years of consumption
The full dose was set to 6600 mg cow’s milk protein and 5200 mg wheat
protein.
Continuous and categorical variables were analyzed using the
Mann-Whitney U test and the Fisher’s exact test, respectively.
