問題詳情

Last month, I had the chance to listen to allergy expert Gideon Lack speak on the hypothesis at an allergy panel discussion during the Association of Health Care Journalists (AHCJ) annual conference. The dual-allergen exposure hypothesis is the theory that exposure to food allergens through the skin can lead to allergy，while consumption of these foods at an early age may actually result in tolerance, as Lack explains in a 2012 article. Depending on the balance of these exposures, either tolerance or allergy will “win.” Children with eczema, for example, have a disrupted skin barrier that could allow exposure to food proteins in the environment - such as peanut oil in creams or peanut residue on tables. Under the hypothesis, if these children avoid peanuts but are still exposed to them in the environment, they might be more likely to develop peanut allergy.
18. The word “Dual” in tsdual-allergen exposure hypothesis” means:
(A) body and soul,
(B) head and toe,
(C) right and wrong,
(D) skin and mouth.
