We retrospectively compared the proportion of passing a full-dose OFC (2650-mg wheat protein) between patients who underwent an LD OFC prior to 2019 (LD group) and those who underwent a VLD OFC (26.5-mg wheat protein) after 2019 (VLD group). The period for passing the full-dose OFC was evaluated using Kaplan\u2013Meier survival analyses.\nResults: We enrolled 200 and 58 patients in LD group and VLD group, respectively. The median age at OFC initiation was 2.1 (1.6\u20134.2) and 1.9 (1.4\u20133.6) years in LD group and VLD group, respectively. Wheat- and \u03c9-5 gliadin-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels were 25.2 (7.7\u201359.8) kUA\/L and 2.5 (0.8\u201312.6) kUA\/L, respectively, in the LD group and 21.9 (7.4\u201394.9) kUA\/L and 3.3 (1.2\u20139.4) kUA\/L, respectively, in the VLD group. Over 4 years, the LD group and VLD group passed the full-dose OFC at proportions of 50% and 75%, respectively, with a significant difference (Log-rank test, P &lt; 0.01).\nConclusion: Starting VLD wheat intake may contribute to achieving a full-dose OFC in patients with severe wheat allergies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.15586\/aei.v54i2.1451","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,2]],"date-time":"2026-03-02T15:13:55Z","timestamp":1772464435000},"page":"76-84","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Efficacy of starting very-low-dose wheat intake in children with severe allergy: a retrospective study"],"prefix":"10.15586","volume":"54","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1573-8118","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kosei","family":"Yamashita","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6003-4996","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Takanori","family":"Imai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Midori","family":"Takahashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sawa","family":"Seki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Toshiyuki","family":"Takagi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Megumi","family":"Okawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aiko","family":"Honda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chihiro","family":"Kunigami","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuki","family":"Okada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mayu","family":"Maeda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Taro","family":"Kamiya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"6228","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,1]]},"container-title":["Allergologia et Immunopathologia"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/all-imm.com\/index.php\/aei\/article\/download\/1451\/2305","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/all-imm.com\/index.php\/aei\/article\/download\/1451\/2306","content-type":"text\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/all-imm.com\/index.php\/aei\/article\/download\/1451\/2307","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/all-imm.com\/index.php\/aei\/article\/download\/1451\/2305","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,20]],"date-time":"2026-03-20T10:25:45Z","timestamp":1774002345000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/all-imm.com\/index.php\/aei\/article\/view\/1451"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,1]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,2]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.15586\/aei.v54i2.1451","relation":{},"ISSN":["0301-0546"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0301-0546","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,1]]}}}
