Question 4 [7 points total]. An allergy to peanuts is increasingly comment in Western countries. A randomized controlled trial enrolled infants with a diagnosed peanut sensitivity. Infants were randomized to either avoid peanuts or consume them regularly until they reached age 5. At the end of the study 18 out of the 51 randomized to avoidance were allergic to peanuts compared to 5 out of the 47 randomized to consuming them regularly.

between the two groups.
