Number needed to treat, let’s consider this in our discussions for allergic rhinitis.

NNT for statins = 40!
NNT for antibiotics = ~10
NNT for immunotherapy = 4! WOW 🤯
This is disease modifying therapy that has huge power! #NAPAAC24

We are still working on the definitions of outcomes of oral immunotherapy. It’s not all the same AND we don’t even have our terminology sorted out - yet! Keyword here: YET! #NAPAAC24

“We (Allergists) are experts in activation. Run a skin test. You’ve just activated one mast cell there!”
- Dr Matt Greenhawt

A lively discussion on the prevalence of mast cell activation. #NAPAAC24

You go to MIDAS they talk TIRES. You go to an ALLERGIST to talk about IMMUNOTHERAPY. #NAPAAC24

Don’t lump all oral immunotherapy together.

When looking at challenge defined outcomes, may not correlate with patient defined outcomes

Remission has been shown to improve QOL in patients that can achieve this!

#NAPAAC24

Desensitization therapies mainly benefit more sensitive patients … protect against accidental peanut contamination. The patients with higher thresholds benefit from OIT that induces REMISSION! Again, this speaks to phenotypes of food allergy and the therapies we offer. #NAPAAC24

The grade of evidence for the environmental control measures for allergic rhinitis we routinely talk about is actually quite LOW! #guilt #unintendedharm #NAPAAC24
