Immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated allergy is the most common form of hypersensitivity disorder, affecting approximately 30% of the global population. In atopic individuals, exposure to even trace amounts of allergens can trigger the production of IgE antibodies. Seasonal allergies and asthma represent a significant global health concern. The allergy panels consisted of various allergens, categorized as follows: respiratory, food, and mixed (containing both food and respiratory allergens). Food allergy is defined as an adverse immunological response to a dietary protein. Respiratory allergic disorders, including allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma, constitute major public health concerns, with a rising global prevalence. These conditions typically emerge in the spring, coinciding with the airborne dispersion of plant pollen. Among the inhalant allergens tested, pollen emerged as the most frequent trigger, indicating its prominent role in respiratory allergic responses. These findings may serve as a valuable starting point for evaluating the regional burden of allergic diseases and their major impact on public health. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of sensitization patterns and contributing environmental factors, further large scale, population based studies are warranted.The present study aims to conduct a case analysis focusing on the spectrum of allergens identified in patients from the western region of Romania.
