“…Although CU and allergic rhinitis may demonstrate seasonal correlations [20], we were unable to find such a link between allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria. Likewise, no relation was found between asthma and CU in our study unlike previous reports [21].…”

Background: Chronic urticaria (CU) is the recurrence of erythematous itching papular skin lesions for at least 6 weeks. Although it is often considered a benign condition, there are reports of the association of chronic idiopathic urticaria with infections, thyroid disease, foods, medications, autoimmunity, neoplasms, and low serum level of vitamin D. We aimed to identify the effect of lifestyle characteristics, environmental factors, family history, and specific comorbidities as potential external eliciting factors on the onset of chronic urticaria. Materials and Methods: The present research was conducted on 141 adult patients diagnosed by CU at the allergy clinics of Azad University hospitals in Tehran from January 2021 to January 2022. A questionnaire on different life events during the past 3 months before the onset of urticaria was developed to evaluate the characteristics of the patients with chronic urticaria. Meanwhile, 58 healthy individuals who were similar to the patients in terms of age range and gender were asked to participate in the study as the control group. Results: The mean age of the patients and the controls were 41.7 years and 39.8 years, respectively. The female and male patients were 105(74.47%) and 36(25.53%), respectively. Only two of the evaluated predisposing factors were meaningful including the use of new medications (23.4% versus 19%; P=0.006) and the co-existence of anxiety and depression (14.1% versus 4%; P=0.036). Conclusion: Among the different factors evaluated in this study, only two were found to be significant in relationship with CU which are anxiety/depression and medications.

“…Choroby autoimmunologiczne, w tym celiakia, powiązane są z wystąpieniem pokrzywki po spożyciu glutenu [37]. Naukowcy zwrócili także uwagę na potencjalną immunomodulacyjną rolę witaminy D w pokrzywce [38]. Badania potwierdziły, że jej niedobory są znacznie wyższe u pacjentów z pokrzywką niż u osób zdrowych [39].…”

Nowadays it is known that many dermatological diseases are associated with a poor diet and unhealthy lifestyle. Some nutrients can exacerbate the disease, while others aid in their treatment. The aim of the study was to present the current state of knowledge on the influence of nutrients on the course of skin diseases such as acne, atopic dermatitis and urticaria. Providing the body with the necessary ingredients and eliminating those that favor the development or worsening of symptoms are an important element in the treatment of many skin diseases.

Dietary strategies for chronic spontaneous urticaria: an evidence‐based review

2021

Although the relationship between diet and chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) remains elusive, several patients seek dietary modifications as they are easy and cost-effective.Adequate patient education and counseling are crucial as modified diets may be beneficial for a subset of antihistamine refractory CSU patients, and no modality currently exists to identify these patients. Elimination of food items based exclusively on patient history may lead to unnecessary restrictions in most cases resulting in nutritional deficiencies and impaired quality of life. Several dietary strategies have been tried till date with varying rates of success and evidence. This review highlights the various dietary strategies along with their levels of evidence, which may help the treating dermatologists and physicians to counsel CSU patients and make evidence-based treatment decisions. There is grade A recommendation for the elimination of food additives (artificial pseudoallergens), personalized diets, vitamin D supplementation, Diamine oxidase supplementation and probiotics (in children), grade B recommendation for dietary elimination of red meat, fish and their products, natural pseudoallergens (fruits, vegetables, and spices), and lowhistamine diet, while dietary elimination of gluten (with concomitant celiac disease) has grade C recommendation. Notably, elimination diets should be continued for at least 3 consecutive weeks to assess their effectiveness.
