A progressive global increase in the burden of allergic diseases has affected industrialized world over last half century and been reported literature. The clinical evidence reveals a general both incidence prevalence respiratory diseases, such as rhinitis (common hay fever) asthma. Such phenomena may be related not only to air pollution changes lifestyle, but also an actual airborne quantities allergenic pollen. Experimental enhancements carbon dioxide (CO) have demonstrated pollen amount...
BackgroundOngoing climate change might, through rising temperatures, alter allergenic pollen biology across the northern hemisphere. We aimed to analyse trends in seasonality and load establish whether there are specific climate-related links any observed changes.MethodsFor this retrospective data analysis, we did an extensive search for global datasets with 20 years or more of airborne that consistently recorded season indices (eg, duration intensity). 17 locations three continents...
Significance Coexposure to airborne pollen enhances susceptibility respiratory viral infections, regardless of the allergy status. We hypothesized this could be also true for SARS-CoV-2 infections. To investigate this, we tested relationships between infection rates and concentrations, along with humidity, temperature, population density, lockdown effects. Our unique dataset derives from 130 sites in 31 countries across five continents. found that pollen, sometimes synergy humidity...
Abstract Masting, the highly variable production of synchronized large seed crops, is a common reproductive strategy in plant populations. In wind‐pollinated trees, flowering and pollination dynamics are hypothesized to provide mechanistic link for well‐known relationship between weather population‐level production. Several hypotheses make predictions about effect on annual success. The pollen coupling hypothesis predicts that resources drive effort which directly translates into size crops...
High Pinaceae pollen concentrations in the air and on surface of puddles before main season started were observed Kraków (southern Poland) May 2013. The paper presents results detailed studies composition source "yellow rain" 2013, as a comparison, samples collected from ground 2014 considered. using volumetric method (Hirst-type device), while grains sampled processed modified Erdtman acetolysis method. Finally, all studied light microscope. In period higher Abies, Picea Pinus was 5 to 12...
Previous studies have shown that ragweed pollen arrives in Poland from sources the south, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary and Austria. It is likely also southeast (e.g. Ukraine). This hypothesis was investigated using 13 years of data back-trajectory analysis. Ambrosia were collected at three sites Poland, Rzeszów, Kraków Poznań. The amount recorded Rzeszów significantly higher than Poznań Kraków. can be related to either a abundance local populations south-east or proximity foreign...
The European Commission Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) Action FA1203 "SMARTER" aims to make recommendations for the sustainable management of Ambrosia across Europe monitoring its efficiency cost-effectiveness. goal present study is provide a baseline spatial temporal variations airborne pollen that can be used evaluation this noxious plant. covers full range artemisiifolia L. distribution over (39°N-60°N; 2°W-45°E). Airborne data principal flowering period (August-September)...
Alternaria spores are pathogenic to agricultural crops, and the longest most severe sporulation seasons predominantly recorded in rural areas, e.g. Pannonian Plain (PP) South-Central Europe. In Poland (Central Europe), airborne spore concentrations peak between July August. this study, we test hypothesis that PP is source of after main season (September-October). Airborne (2005-2019) were collected using volumetric Hirst traps located 38 locations along potential pathways air masses, i.e....
Ongoing and future climate change driven expansion of aeroallergen-producing plant species comprise a major human health problem across Europe elsewhere. There is an urgent need to produce accurate, temporally dynamic maps at the continental level, especially in context uncertainty. This study aimed restore missing daily ragweed pollen data sets for Europe, phenological pollen, resulting most complete detailed high-resolution concentration date. To achieve this, we have developed two...
Pollen allergy becomes an increasing problem for humans, especially in the regions, where air pollution level increases due to traffic and urbanization. These factors may also affect physiological activity of plants, causing changes pollen allergenicity. The aim study was estimate influence pollutants on chemical composition birch secondary structures Bet v1 protein. research conducted seven locations Malopolska region, South Poland a different level. We have found slight fluctuations values...
Alternaria and Cladosporium spores belong to the most frequent allergenic particles in bioaerosol temperate climate. The investigation of spore concentrations was performed two cities Poland, Szczecin Cracow, 2004-2013. meteorological parameters taken assess their impact on fungal were average, maximum minimum temperature, relative humidity average wind velocity. In order reveal whether changes dynamics seasons are driven by conditions, ordination methods applied. Canonical correspondence...
It is important to monitor the threat of allergenic pollen during whole season, because practical application in allergic rhinitis treatment, especially specific allergen immunotherapy. The aim study was propose forecast models predicting occurrence defined concentration categories related patient exposure and symptom intensity.The performed Cracow (southern Poland), data were collected using volumetric method 1991-2012. For all independent variables (meteorological elements) daily...
