Factors by which Global Warming Worsens Allergic Disease
Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2023 Sep 7:S1081-1206(23)01219-X. doi: 10.1016/j.anai.2023.08.610. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIncreased use of fossil fuels has led to global warming with concomitant increases in the severity and frequency of extreme weather events such as wildfires and sand and dust storms. These changes have led to increases in air pollutants such as particulate matter and greenhouse gases. Global warming is also associated with increases in pollen season length and pollen concentration. Particulate matter, greenhouse gases, and pollen synergistically increase incidence and severity of allergic diseases. O...

Changing with the times —learning to pivot as an academic allergist
In 535 BCE, Heraclitus said “Change is the only constant in life.” As changes continue in allergy and immunology (AI) with respect to practice types, models and patient complexity, it is critical that trainees are provided the skills needed to navigate this ever-changing environment. The article by Dr Zafra and Dr Chiu ill ustrates the changes in recruitment, cost of medical education, salaries, and ACGME standards and wellness.1 We like to take this a step further focusing on the many domains of wellness: emotional, spiritual, intellectual, social, physical, environmental, financial, and occupational.

Resources, resources everywhere. However, not for everyone
In a survey conducted by the Pew Research Center, a significant majority (specifically 72%) of internet users reported searching online for medical information.1 Naturally, the question arises: Are publicly available health care –related educational resources sufficiently accessible? The American Medical Association recommends that health-related public information should be presented at or lesser than a sixth-grade reading level. As per a United States Department of Education report from 1993, most of the health care lit erature is written at a tenth-grade or higher reading level.

Extreme Weather Events and Asthma
The objective of this article is to review recent literature on the implications of extreme weather events such as thunderstorms, wildfires, tropical cyclones, freshwater flooding, and temperature extremes in relationship to asthma symptoms. Several studies have shown worsening of asthma symptoms with thunderstorms, wildfires, tropical cyclones, freshwater flooding, and temperature extremes. In particular, thunderstorm asthma can be exacerbated by certain factors such as temperature, precipitation, and allergen sensitization. Therefore, it is imperative that the allergy and immunology community be aware of the health effec...

Pattern of use and awareness of side-effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in the Jordanian population
Conclusion: Despite the high frequency of NSAID use in the Jordanian general population, there is limited knowledge of their side-effects as well as drug interactions. This is cause for concern, particularly as many participants reported having been prescribed NSAIDs by physicians without adequate patient safety education.PMID:37527416 | DOI:10.1080/07853890.2023.2242248
