- Abstract
In children with food-related symptoms, a food challenge is considered as the gold standard to diagnose allergy. If food allergy could be predicted by patient history and/or diagnostic tests, the number of time-consuming and sometimes risky food challenges could be decreased. We aimed to determine questionnaire and test-based characteristics, to predict the food challenge outcome (FCO) in children referred to a tertiary centre for the evaluation of food-related symptoms.
