Exercise-induced anaphylaxis unrelated to food ingestion and with hyperleukotrieneuria during challenge testing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Exercise-induced anaphylaxis (EIA) is a rare and potentially life-threatening disorder that can develop independently without food ingestion. Cold drinks can also trigger symptoms in some patients with cold-induced anaphylaxis. We present a case of a patient with EIA that was diagnosed on the basis of positive exercise loading test with hyperleukotrieneuria. CASE PRESENTATION: A 12-year-old girl presented with acute flushing, cyanosis, swollen eyelids, and dyspnea after an endurance run in winter or swimming in a cold-water pool. She also developed dyspnea after having a cold drink. She had no history of food allergies, atopy, or asthma. No association was noted between anaphylaxis and food intake in her history. On the first day, she ingested 200 mL of 5 °C cold water in 30 s, which did not trigger symptomatic responses, but her urinary leukotriene E4 (LTE4) level increased (pre-challenge test: 295 pg/mg-creatinine (cr), post-challenge test: 400 pg/mg-cr). On the second day, she underwent the exercise loading test according to the Bruce protocol by using an ergometer to increase the power of exercise every 2 min. She had been fasting for > 15 h and did not have breakfast. Just after the exercise loading test, the plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline increased. At 15 min after the exercise loading test, her plasma adrenaline and histamine (pre-challenge test: 0.7 ng/mL, 15 min post-challenge test: 81 ng/mL) rose sharply with anaphylaxis symptoms accompanied by increasing urinary LTE4 (pre-challenge test: 579 pg/mg-cr, post-challenge test: 846 pg/mg-cr). After she was discharged, she was restricted from strenuous exercise especially in cold environments and prescribed an adrenaline autoinjector. CONCLUSION: Cold stimulation can become a co-effector of EIA. Measurements of urinary LTE4 levels during challenge testing are useful for diagnosing EIA and capture the pre-anaphylaxis stage.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
