Every spring, millions of allergy sufferers fall into the same familiar routine of checking pollen counts, bracing for congestion⁽²⁾, and reaching for medications that promise relief⁽³⁾.

      每年春天，数百万过敏患者都会陷入一成不变的日常：查看花粉浓度、做好鼻塞不适的心理准备，然后拿起那些承诺能缓解症状的药物。

     But their options are expanding like never before as a wave of new research and therapies⁽⁴⁾ are “moving beyond a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach,” says DeVon Preston, an allergist at Cleveland Clinic—shifting care away from simply treating symptoms⁽⁵⁾ toward changing how the body responds to allergens in the first place.

       但如今，他们的治疗选择正迎来前所未有的扩容。克利夫兰诊所过敏科医生迪翁・普雷斯顿表示，一系列全新研究与疗法正突破“一刀切” 的传统模式，将治疗思路从单纯缓解症状，转变为从根源上改变人体对过敏原的反应机制。

       And “there are even more exciting therapies in the pipeline⁽⁶⁾,” adds Scott Sicherer, director of the Jaffe Food Allergy Institute at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

      西奈山伊坎医学院杰菲食物过敏研究所所长斯科特・西谢勒补充道：“还有更多极具前景的疗法正在研发筹备中。”

      He says these include patches and tablets that expose the immune⁽⁷⁾ system to allergens in new and exciting ways, as well as emerging treatments designed to “teach the immune system not to attack certain food proteins.”

     他表示，这类新疗法包括通过创新方式让免疫系统接触过敏原的贴片与口服片剂，还有一些新兴疗法旨在 “引导免疫系统不去攻击特定食物蛋白质”。
