Sensitisation patterns to aeroallergens and food allergens at 4, 10 and 18 years, based on SPT results. Aeroallergen sensitisation increases with age and reaches a maximum of 40.2% by 18 years and food allergen sensitisation reaches a maximum of 21.4% by 18 years of age. The majority of the food allergen sensitised population are also sensitised to aeroallergens, while there were few who were sensitised only to food allergens.
