NR indicates not reported; yo, years old; SPT, skin prick test; HLA-MM, human leukocyte antigen mismatched; DM, dust mite (species not specified); DF, Dermatophagoids farinae; DLI, donor lymphocyte infusion; RAST, radio allergosorbent test; CML, chronic myelogenous leukemia; AML, acute myelogenous leukemia; ALL, acute lymphoblastic leukemia; NHL, non-Hodgkin lymphoma; CM, clinical manifestation; T-IgE, total IgE; and A-IgE, allergen-specific IgE.

Total serum IgE (suggestive but not diagnostic of allergy), typical reference value less than 300 IU/mL.

Allergen-specific IgE (diagnostic of allergic disease if present in a person with clinical manifestations of allergic disease). Typical reference value is less than 0.35 kU/L or RAST score 0 (scale 0-4).

Allergy status evalution was done at multiple time points after transplantation, however, the data shown in the table is for the time point when most prominent allergic reactions were observed or, if the timing of the allergic symptoms was not reported, the latest posttransplantation time point available.

Agosti et al³² : only patients for whom patient-individual data have been reported are shown here.

Hallstrand et al³³ : only patients for whom patient-individual data have been reported are shown here.

Patient 2: The recipient pretransplantation had eczema, recipient allergen-specific IgE pretransplantation was not reported; and presence or absence of clinical rhinitis or asthma posttransplantation could not be determined as the recipient had frequent respiratory infection.

Patient 3: transfer of allergy but not allergic disease.

Patient7: pretransplantation allergen-specific IgE in the recipient was not studied.

Patient 8: no patch test or allergen-specific IgE result on the recipient pretransplantation was reported.

Patients 9 and 10: allergen-specific IgE was not studied.

Patient 11: the donor had elevated IgE to dog, dust mite, and pollens but not banana, but the recipient posttransplantation had elevated IgE to dog, dust mite, pollens, and banana; recipient pretransplantation levels of IgE to dog, dust mite, and pollens were unreported, but he was known to have an elevated level of IgE to banana (so the allergy to banana could be of recipient origin).

Patients 13 and 16: recipient pretransplantation had rhinitis and/or asthma.

Patients 14, 15, 17, 18: unclear whether allergic or nonallergic asthma/rhinitis was transferred; also, patient 18 had positive SPT for dust mite pretransplantation.
