简要总结
Our central hypothesis is that dietary limitations introduced by food allergy will contribute to increased food insecurity in households with food allergic children when compared to food insecure households without food allergic children.
详细描述
Specific Aim 1 To describe food insecurity in families of the pediatric allergy population, specifically comparing the prevalence of food insecurity rates between households of food allergic patients and households of allergic patients without food allergy.
Specific Aim 2 To examine health literacy in parents of patients in the pediatric allergy population, comparing food insecure patients with and without food allergy to food secure patients with food allergy.
Specific Aim 3 To examine quality of life in food allergic patients' households using the food allergy impact scale, comparing food allergic patients' households with food insecurity to food allergic patients' households without food insecurity.

结局指标
主要结局
Presence of food insecurity within an atopic population
时间窗: 1.25 years
The primary outcome variable of interest is the presence of food insecurity (patients with Low Food Security or Very Low Food Security). A chi-square test of independence will be used to test the association between food insecurity and food allergy.
