Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Over the past decades, there has been a significant increase in the prevalence of allergic diseases, attributed to multiple factors, including liver dysfunction and gut microbiome imbalance. The liver plays a central role in allergen detoxification, immune response regulation, metabolism of inflammatory mediators, and maintenance of immune tolerance. Impairment of liver function can lead to the accumulation of toxins and metabolic byproducts, contributing to hypersensitivity and inflammatory processes. On the other hand, the gut microbiota actively participates in immune homeostasis and the development of antigen tolerance. Disruptions in its composition provoke systemic inflammation and reduce immune tolerance, thereby enhancing susceptibility to allergic reactions. The interplay between liver dysfunction, microbiota, and allergic responses highlights the complex pathogenesis of allergic diseases. This review examines the mechanisms underlying the relationship between liver function, microbiome composition, and the development of allergic reactions. Restoring liver function and normalizing the microbiome may serve as promising strategies for the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases.
