Early-life exposure to air pollution associated with food allergy in children: Implications for 'one allergy' concept
CONCLUSION: Early-life exposure to high levels of outdoor and indoor air pollution in China due to the rapid economic growth and fast urbanization in the past decades may contribute to the rapid increase of food allergy (FA) in children. Our study indicates that, in addition to gut and skin, airway may be a new route of food sensitization. Air pollution leads to the first and second waves of allergy epidemics, suggesting a concept of 'one allergy' disease.PMID:36347392 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2022.114713

Epidemic thunderstorm asthma (TA) can have catastrophic effects. While reported world-wide, the most severe event ever recorded was in Melbourne, Australia, in 2016, resulting in over 3400 excess emergency asthma presentations and 10 deaths. Established risk factors for thunderstorm asthma are seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever) with specific allergy to ryegrass pollen. However, seasonal allergic rhinitis affects over 20% of people in Melbourne, so this information does not enable targeting of preventive strategies.

Environmental Influences and Allergic Diseases in the Asia-Pacific Region: What Will Happen in Next 30 Years?
Allergy Asthma Immunol Res. 2022 Jan;14(1):21-39. doi: 10.4168/aair.2022.14.1.21.ABSTRACTAsia-Pacific is a populous region with remarkable variations in socioeconomic development and environmental exposure among countries. The prevalence rates of asthma and allergic rhinitis appear to have recently reached a plateau in Western countries, whereas they are still increasing in many Asian countries. Given the large population in Asia, even a slight increase in the prevalence rate will translate into an overwhelming number of patients. To reduce the magnitude of the increase in allergic diseases in next few decades in Asia, we ...
