The Cow’s Milk-Related Symptom Score (CoMiSSTM) in Presumed Healthy Egyptian Infants

20242 citationsOpen accessMenoufia University

Abstract

This study revealed the median CoMiSS is 5 in presumed healthy Egyptian infants aged 0-12 months. The CoMiSS was not dependent on feeding. The determination of the CoMiSS in healthy infants allows for the determination of a cut-off under which CMA is unlikely, and a cut-off to raise awareness of CMA, thereby preventing under- and overdiagnosis. Since the median CoMiSS was not different in European infants, the outcome suggests that the CoMiSS may be a reliable awareness tool for CMA independent of ethnicity. However, additional studies are needed to confirm the previous hypothesis.
