The discontinuation of a popular asthma medication was linked to a higher rate of children stopping inhaled steroid therapy altogether, a new study suggests.
Rutgers Health researchers from the Nanoscience and Advanced Materials Center (NAMC) at the Environmental Occupational Health Sciences Institute (EOHSI) found that wildfire particles created a microclimate effect that worsened pollution exposure.
Researchers developed liver-targeted immunotherapy (LIT), a novel approach that chemically modifies allergens with mannose sugars, directing them to the liver where immune tolerance develops. In preclinical trials, just two LIT doses provided year-long asthma protection without triggering allergic reactions, outperforming traditional immunotherapy.
Rutgers Health researchers highlight the connection between early repeated antibiotic use how it impacts the digestive microbiome
May is Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month, a time when allergists want you to know a few facts about how allergies and asthma are related, and how you can better control your asthma symptoms.
More than one in four adults and one in five children in the U.S. have seasonal allergies (allergic rhinitis). And North Texas has a perfect climate for producing allergy-inducing pollen.
Researchers at WashU Medicine found that a small population of immune cells in the mouse intestine prevents allergic responses to food, suggesting that targeting such cells therapeutically could potentially lead to a new treatment for allergies.
In a study co-led by the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM), researchers have identified a “master regulator” gene, ZNFX1, that may act as a biomarker to help guide treatment in future clinical trials involving patients with therapy-resistant ovarian cancer, according to a study recently published in Cancer Research.
A recently published clinical trial found probiotic SEBclausii™ (Alkalihalobacillus clausii 088AE) from Specialty Enzymes & Probiotics supports the alleviation of symptoms of acute allergic rhinitis.
Catherine Monteleone, a professor and director of allergy and immunology at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, provides guidance on managing this allergy season.
In the spring, the grass turns green, trees begin to bud and flowers blossom again. However, the change in season also can bring runny and stuffy noses, sneezes and itchy, watery eyes.
Houston Methodist nurses help drive initiative to reclassify penicillin allergies at the bedside
As the seasons shift and we transition from winter to spring, many things change, including allergies. Does your nose feel itchy when the weather changes? Maybe you sneeze a lot, your eyes water or you have a slight cough. If so, you might have seasonal allergies.
A study now published in Nature Communications Earth & Environment, reveals how global warming could exacerbate lung diseases by dehydrating and inflaming human airways. UNC Marsico Lung Institute members Brian Button, PhD, is senior author and Alessandra Livraghi-Butrico, PhD, is co-author.
In a recent, cross-institutional study partially funded by the National Institutes of Health, researchers report that healthy human airways are at higher risk for dehydration and inflammation when exposed to dry air, an occurrence expected to increase due to global warming.
Cleaning the dust, mold and grime that have accumulated over the winter can help everyone breathe better and avoid the sneezing and wheezing that come from spring allergies.
The AANS, CNS, and over 40 other leading medical organizations sent a joint letter to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), expressing concerns over the agency’s new policy imposing a 15% cap on indirect cost rates for all NIH grants.
