Résumé
Immunoglobulin E-mediated food allergy is an increasingly prevalent public health concern globally. In North America, particularly in the United States, racial and ethnic differences in food allergy prevalence and rates of sensitization have become apparent. Black and Hispanic children in the United States have been estimated to have the highest rates of food allergy. Beyond rates of prevalence, food allergy outcomes, such as health care utilization, psychosocial outcomes, and economic burden, also vary considerably by race and ethnicity. It is important to consider socioeconomic status in conjunction with race and ethnicity in studying differences in food allergy outcomes.
