Overview

Review examines climate change's role in increasing allergic diseases among children, suggesting critical intervention needs.

Key Points

  • This review aims to explore how climate change contributes to the rising incidence of allergic diseases in children.
  • Examined various pediatric allergic diseases including asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, and food allergies.
  • Analyzed the impact of environmental factors such as air pollution, extreme weather, and microbial exposures.
  • Reviewed epidemiological evidence linking environmental exposures to allergic disease risk.
  • Increased CO2 and rising temperatures lead to prolonged pollen seasons and heightened allergenicity.
  • Air pollution, particularly PM2.5 and NO2, correlates with higher risks of allergic diseases in pediatric populations.
  • Microbiome dysbiosis and altered environmental exposures impair immune tolerance, promoting allergy development.
