Cow’s milk allergy that is not IgE-mediated is notoriously difficult to diagnose. Atopy patch testing may be able to detect non-IgE-mediated allergies. However, in this study, patch testing did not prove to be effective for diagnosing this type of milk allergy and is not recommended for clinical practice. The Establishment of Cow's Milk Protein Allergy in Infants is Related with a Deficit of Regulatory T cells (Treg) and Vitamin D. Jan 2017 Human milk oligosaccharides and development of cow's milk allergy in infants. Sept 2016 Meta review suggests that there is no consistent advantage to using a hypoallergenic formula over a standard formula for preventing the development of cow's milk allergy in high risk infants. March 2016 High maternal consumption of milk products during pregnancy may protect children from developing CMA (cow's milk allergy), especially in offspring of non-allergic mothers.

July 2014 Both maternal and child's use of antibiotics were associated with an increased risk of cow's milk allergy. March 2013 Cow’s milk and constipation. Trial shows an association between cow’s milk consumption and constipation but no specific association between the type of casein (A1 or A2) and constipation. January 2013 Parent-reported atopy or susceptibility to allergy does not appear to be a significant factor in the predicting which infants may be at risk of cow’s milk allergy. April 2013 Factors that predict the clinical reactivity and tolerance in children with cow's milk allergy. April 2013 Cow’s milk protein alpha 1 casein, a major allergen, had been found in colostrum samples from full and pre-term mothers although beta-lactaglobulin (another major allergen) was not found. Further investigation is needed to clarify whether this may sensitise exclusively breast-fed, pre-disposed infants to cow’s milk allergy.

It is more prevalent among white children than black or Asian children. Helpful comment here.
