Thunderstorm asthma:current status and perspectives
Thunderstorm asthma refers to the acute exacerbation of asthma triggered by extreme weather events,which poses life-threatening risks due to severe asthma attacks and strained medical resources.Recent climate changes,including global warming,the greenhouse effect,and increased carbon emissions,have increased the levels of environmental allergens,contributing to a higher incidence of asthma and other allergic diseases.In addition,the increasing frequency of thunderstorms has exacerbated the impact of thunderstorm asthma.There is an urgent need to establish prevention and control mechanisms,promote interdepartmental collaboration,and implement real-time monitoring of extreme weather events and allergen concentrations.Developing early warning systems and integrating medical services with public health departments for timely information sharing and coordinated responses can help reduce the incidence of thunderstorm asthma and reduce mortality.
