Fig 1 Flowchart of patients sensitized to HWPs. N, Negative; n.d., not done; P, positive. HWP, n = 9; WIA, n = 19; WDEIA, n = 28. *Sensitized either with sIgE measurements, SPTs, or both. **The 7 patients in the HWP group were not challenged because of very severe initial reactions to the cake mix and because of the lack of purified culprit material. ***The patients with negative challenge results were given a subsequent diagnosis of other allergies as follows: WIA—egg, n = 5; peanut, n = 2; cashew, n = 1; milk, n = 1; WDEIA—lost to follow-up, n = 2; celery, n = 1; unknown, n = 1.
