Global Asthma Network's Ecological Study
Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.Global Asthma Network Phase I surveyed children, adolescents, and adults worldwide to assess the prevalence of asthma, rhinoconjunctivitis, and eczema. Human Development Index (HDI) and Gini inequality index (GinI) were important explanatory factors for prevalence variability of these conditions, with hotspots in areas with high HDI and high GinI ...Luis García‐Marcos, Chen‐Yuan Chiang, M.

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.This study describes the clinical heterogeneity of Brazilian patients with 5q spinal muscular atrophy types 2 and 3, highlighting prolonged diagnostic delays and the impact of disease duration on motor function. Early genetic diagnosis and access to multidisciplinary care are crucial to preserve functional outcomes.Elice Carneiro Batista, Edmar Zanoteli, Henrique Andrade R.

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.The Burden: Hearing loss (HL) is the most prevalent sensory disorder globally, affecting 1.5 million individuals in Brazil. The Gap: While > 150 genes are linked to HL, the genetic architecture in underrepresented populations like Brazil is poorly defined. The Problem: This lack of data limits diagnostic yield and the application of precision medicine.

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract
Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) are poached for an illegal trade in their skins, which are used in traditional medicine in Africa and Asia. We explored whether messages about the legal and health risks of using elephant skin for medicinal purposes (stomach illness) could reduce such consumption.Beilu Duan, Zac Posada‐Baynham, Joceline Yong, Xiaoxi Zhang, Zhan Chen, Anita K.

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.Sensitization to propolis, shellac and gallate mix is FFA‐associated, but its relevance is largely unknown. Sensitization to salicylates is frequent and associated with symptoms of intolerance to sun exposure or sunscreens. No significant improvement by allergen avoidance is identified.María‐Antonia Pastor‐Nieto, María Elena Gatica Ortega, Anna María Giménez‐Arnau, Tatiana Sanz‐Sánchez, Pedro Mercader García, Inmaculada Ruíz‐González, Gemma Melé‐Ninot, Pablo Chicharro, Paloma Sánchez‐Pedreño, Marina de Vega, Miguel Ángel Gallego Descalzo, Leopoldo Borrego +11 morewiley +1 more sourceEpidemiological, Clinical and Allergic Profile of Patients With Dyshidrotic Eczema (Acute and Recurrent Vesicular Dermatitis): Evaluation of the Spanish Registry of Research in Contact Dermatitis and Cutaneous Allergy (REIDAC)
Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.In this exploratory analysis, dyshidrotic eczema demonstrated a distinct sensitisation pattern compared with non‐dyshidrotic hand eczema. The lower proportion of clinically relevant reactions amongst positive patch tests suggests a multi‐factorial and not exclusively allergic background.Araceli Sánchez‐Gilo, Enrique Gómez de la Fuente, Ana M.
