Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome: review and new classification criteria for reporting in clinical trials
Humaidan P, Nelson S, Devroey P, Coddington C, Schwartz L, Gordon K, et al.
Hum Reprod . 2016 Jun; 31(9):1997-2004. PMID: 27343272
Study Question: What is an objective approach that employs measurable and reproducible physiologic changes as the basis for the classification of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in order to facilitate more...

Proposed diagnostic algorithm for patients with suspected mastocytosis: a proposal of the European Competence Network on Mastocytosis
Valent P, Escribano L, Broesby-Olsen S, Hartmann K, Grattan C, Brockow K, et al.
Allergy . 2014 May; 69(10):1267-74. PMID: 24836395

Refined diagnostic criteria and classification of mast cell leukemia (MCL) and myelomastocytic leukemia (MML): a consensus proposal
Valent P, Sotlar K, Sperr W, Escribano L, Yavuz S, Reiter A, et al.
Ann Oncol . 2014 Mar; 25(9):1691-1700. PMID: 24675021
Mast cell leukemia (MCL), the leukemic manifestation of systemic mastocytosis (SM), is characterized by leukemic expansion of immature mast cells (MCs) in the bone marrow (BM) and other internal organs;...

Increased serum baseline tryptase levels and extensive skin involvement are predictors for the severity of mast cell activation episodes in children with mastocytosis
Alvarez-Twose I, Vano-Galvan S, Sanchez-Munoz L, Morgado J, Matito A, Torrelo A, et al.
Allergy . 2012 Mar; 67(6):813-21. PMID: 22458675
Background: Despite the good prognosis of pediatric mastocytosis, some patients suffer from severe mast cell (MC) mediator-associated symptoms. The aim of this study was to identify predictors for severe MC...

Serum total tryptase levels are increased in patients with active chronic urticaria
Ferrer M, Nunez-Cordoba J, Luquin E, Grattan C, de la Borbolla J, Sanz M, et al.
Clin Exp Allergy . 2010 Aug; 40(12):1760-6. PMID: 20718781
Background: We have demonstrated previously mast cell histamine release upon incubation with chronic urticaria (CU) sera, presumably by degranulation. Objective: To explore total and mature tryptase in order to assess...

Exercise-induced hypersensitivity syndromes in recreational and competitive athletes: a PRACTALL consensus report (what the general practitioner should know about sports and allergy)
Schwartz L, Delgado L, Craig T, Bonini S, Carlsen K, Casale T, et al.
Allergy . 2008 Aug; 63(8):953-61. PMID: 18691297
Exercise-induced (EI) hypersensitivity disorders are significant problems for both recreational and competitive athletes. These include EI-asthma, EI-bronchoconstriction, EI-rhinitis, EI-anaphylaxis and EI-urticaria. A group of experts from the European Academy of...

Practical allergy (PRACTALL) report: risk assessment in anaphylaxis
Simons F, Frew A, Ansotegui I, Bochner B, Golden D, Finkelman F, et al.
Allergy . 2007 Dec; 63(1):35-7. PMID: 18053014
Effector mechanisms in anaphylaxis were reviewed. Current approaches to confirmation of the clinical diagnosis were discussed. Improved methods for distinguishing between allergen sensitization (which is common in the general population)...

Standards and standardization in mastocytosis: consensus statements on diagnostics, treatment recommendations and response criteria
Valent P, Akin C, Escribano L, Fodinger M, Hartmann K, Brockow K, et al.
Eur J Clin Invest . 2007 Jun; 37(6):435-53. PMID: 17537151
Although a classification for mastocytosis and diagnostic criteria are available, there remains a need to define standards for the application of diagnostic tests, clinical evaluations, and treatment responses. To address...

The tryptase positive compact round cell infiltrate of the bone marrow (TROCI-BM): a novel histopathological finding requiring the application of lineage specific markers
Horny H, Sotlar K, Stellmacher F, Krokowski M, Agis H, Schwartz L, et al.
J Clin Pathol . 2006 Mar; 59(3):298-302. PMID: 16505282
Aims: Compact tryptase-positive round cell infiltrates of the bone marrow (TROCI-BM) are very rare histopathological findings and may pose challenging problems with regard to the cell type involved (either mast...

Enumeration and immunohistochemical characterisation of bone marrow basophils in myeloproliferative disorders using the basophil specific monoclonal antibody 2D7
Agis H, Krauth M, Mosberger I, Mullauer L, Simonitsch-Klupp I, Schwartz L, et al.
J Clin Pathol . 2006 Feb; 59(4):396-402. PMID: 16461568
Background: Basophils are highly specialised granulocytes that express a unique profile of antigens and increase in myeloproliferative disorders (MPD). In chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), basophilia is a diagnostic and prognostic...
