1306845001: Alpha-gal syndrome (disorder)

• SNOMED CT Concept\Clinical finding (finding)\...
• \The disposition to develop an allergic or pseudoallergic reaction, the reaction itself or its consequences.\The disposition to develop an allergic reaction, the allergic reaction itself or its consequences.\An allergic condition in which people are allergic to alpha-gal, a sugar found in the tissues of all mammals except humans and other primates. When people who are allergic to alpha-gal eat beef, pork, lamb, or meat from other mammals, they have an allergic reaction that causes a range of symptoms, including a rash, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea. In some cases, there may be an immediate life-threatening anaphylactic reaction. Many report that allergic symptoms to meat began after a series of tick bites. The tick species most often implicated in meat allergy have been Amblyomma americanum (the lone star tick) in the eastern, southeastern, and south-central parts of the United States and other species (Ixodes ricinus, Ixodes holocyclus, Amblyomma cajennense, Amblyomma sculptum, and Haemaphysalis longicornis) in other parts of the world.
