Abstract

<p>Chapter 8 of "Japanese Guidelines for Food Allergy 2021" covers diagnostics and examinations for food allergy, excluding oral food challenges. Significant updates include an updated flowchart for food allergy diagnosis that is simpler and easier to understand, detailed interview points by age group, detailed description of how to interpret specific IgE antibody tests, including probability curves and ROC curves, and other tests. The other tests are also described in detail and their diagnostic significance. Since the diagnosis of allergy to each allergen is discussed in a separate chapter of the guideline, the content of this chapter is limited to a general discussion. A deep understanding of these tests allows for more accurate diagnosis and management options.</p>
