RESUMO
This review highlights studies from the past 3 years that add to the understanding of the impact of environmental exposures on allergic disease. These include aeroallergens, air quality, prenatal or early life exposures, and occupational exposures. Recent studies focused on the relationship between the environment, the microbiome, and allergic disease as well as new therapeutic options are also reviewed. Lastly, there has been significant recent research that improves our knowledge of the link between health disparities and environmental exposures. These scientific advances have resulted in a better understanding that sets the foundation for current and future research dedicated to improving health outcomes by modifying environmental exposures.
