Postcode‐Level Variation and Environmental Determinants of Respiratory Allergies in a Large German Cohort

Allergy, EarlyView.
Young children (0–9 years) and residents of urban areas appeared particularly vulnerable to respiratory allergy development and exacerbation. Incidence showed nonlinear associations with PM10, PM2.5, temperature, and alder/birch pollen, while DPMR showed similar patterns, except for NO2 and the interaction O3*NO2.

Common Food Emulsifiers Impair Epithelial Barrier Integrity and Trigger Pro‐Inflammatory Responses and IgE Production

Allergy, EarlyView.
Soy lecithin and DATEM, the two commonly used food emulsifiers introduced into many foods including peanut butter and puffed bread, in the 2000s, impair intestinal epithelial barrier integrity in human gut‐on‐a‐chip and induced pluripotent stem cell colon organoid models.

Influence of Environmental Pollution on Basophil Reactivity to Birch Pollen Allergens in Atopic and Non‐Atopic Subjects

Allergy, EarlyView.
Birch pollen and PM10 are key determinants of clinical symptoms, particularly in asthma. Allergic people react stronger to the pollen collected in the highly polluted area than in the less polluted areas. When evaluating the effectiveness of allergen immunotherapy, it is essential to consider not only pollen concentrations but also levels of air ...

The External Exposome and Food Allergy: How Environmental Exposures Shape Disease Risk

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT IgE‐mediated food allergy is a global health issue with rising prevalence that cannot be explained by genetic change alone, strongly suggesting that environmental exposures are a key driver. The external exposome encompasses several exposures that influence the developing immune system and modify food allergy risk.

Toward a Politics of (In)Fertility: Reproductive Debility in Africa

American Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sub‐Saharan Africa has some of the highest estimated rates of infertility or involuntary childlessness in the world, leading epidemiologists to refer to parts of the region as the “infertility belt.” The medicalization of infertility and the situating of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) as the treatment for infertility have siphoned ...
