High Sensitisation but Low Clinical Reactivity to Edible Insects in Shellfish‐Allergic Individuals

Key Points

• This research aims to explore the relationship between shellfish allergy and response to edible insects.
• Analyzed sensitization rates to edible insects in individuals with shellfish allergy.
• Assessed clinical reactions to edible insects among subjects.
• Evaluated the predictive value of current diagnostic markers.
• High sensitization rates to edible insects were observed in shellfish-allergic individuals.
• Reported clinical reactivity to insects is generally infrequent and mild.
• Diagnostic markers currently used show limited effectiveness in predicting allergic reactions.
