Background Some occupational and environmental exposures could increase the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) hypertension in various work living environments. However, effect exposure to multiple exogenous harmful substances on COPD co-morbidities remains unclear. Methods Participants were selected from eight hospitals five provinces China using a multistage cluster sampling procedure. Participants' demographic, exposure, information collected through questionnaires, spirometry, blood pressure examinations. Demographic data used as matching factors, 1:1 between exposed non-exposed groups was performed by employing propensity score (PSM) minimize influence results.

The COVID-19 pandemic represents a global health phenomenon that will sadly remain part of our history. It had innumerable consequences for society and people’s lives. With different mechanisms, has been pointed out as factor in the pathophysiology several secondary disorders or deterioration pre-existing conditions. Migraine is frequent disorder can be influenced by conditions, including psychologically stressful conditions infectious diseases. purpose present study to gain insight into influence on clinical characteristics patients with migraine. A self-administrable questionnaire developed, asking migraine features before after infection. One hundred two who infected at least once were included. After infection, 54 reported worsening migraine, 45 noticed no variation, 3 an improvement. 21 changed preventive therapy due loss efficacy previous one. most effective treatments this subpopulation gene-related peptide monoclonal antibodies. presented data confirm heterogeneous but new may controlling symptoms among those report disease.

Background: Research on the longer-term sequelae of COVID-19 in patients with asthma is limited. Objective: To assess frequency and severity long-term symptoms population patients. Methods: A systematic review published literature was conducted accordance recommendations PRISMA statement. EMBASE, MEDLINE/PubMed, Web Science, CINAHL, Scopus Scholar were searched for terms related to post or long COVID-19, reviews specific questions within our review, up June 2022. Results: Data from 9 references publications included extracted. total 1466 adult asthmatic infection described all mentioned above. Of reported after indicated: lower respiratory symptoms, fatigue, cognitive psychological problems, other such as skin rashes, gastrointestinal disorders, tachycardia, palpitations, ocular ageusia/hypogeusia, anosmia/hyposmia, poor sleep quality. These similar intensity observed comparison groups without a diagnosis asthma. Conclusions: The data neither confirm nor deny that are different strength diagnosis. indicate associations between severity, well more longitudinal research needed chronic phenotypes, treatment, degree control.
