“…People of lower socioeconomic status, particularly communities of colour, tend to live in areas with poor air quality [18][19][20] and high air pollution levels due to increased density of industrial sites [20,21], closer proximity to major roadways [20,[22][23][24] and bus depots [25]. Exposure to byproducts of fossil fuel combustion is linked with increased asthma prevalence [26], exacerbations [27][28][29][30][31] and reduced lung function [32][33][34][35]. Non-Hispanic black populations are twice as a likely to live in poor housing than white populations [36], with even larger housing disparities observed in rural areas [37].…”

Purpose of reviewSocial determinants of health play a major role in healthcare utilization and outcomes in patients with asthma. Continuing to understand how these complex and interwoven relationships interact to impact patient care will be crucial to creating innovative programmes that address these disparities.Recent findingsThe current literature continues to support the association of substandard housing, urban and rural neighbourhoods, and race/ethnicity with poor asthma outcomes. Targeted interventions with community health workers (CHWs), telemedicine and local environmental rectifications can help improve outcomes.SummaryThe link between social determinants and poor asthma outcomes continues to be supported by recent literature. These factors are both nonmodifiable and consequences of institutionalized racist policies that require innovative ideas, technologic equity and funding for groups most at risk for poorer outcomes.

“…After each case was identi ed, 1/10 children without asthma and wheezing were randomly selected as controls from vaccination clinics in the National Planned Immunization Registration System. More details including the method of case and control selection were presented in another paper (Bai, et al 2022). Mother-children-pair data were collected by giving out maternal and child health questionnaires to the mothers of the children, which were completed by the children's mothers under the guidance of uniformly trained investigators.…”

The objective of this study was to explore the impact of maternal AT during pregnancy on childhood asthma and wheezing, as well as the potential effect modifiers in this association. A cross-sectional study was implemented from December 2018 to March 2019 in Jinan to investigate the prevalence of childhood asthma and wheezing among aged 18 months to 3 years. Then, we conducted a case-control study based on population to explore the association between prenatal different AT exposure levels and childhood asthma and wheezing. The association was assessed by generalized additive models and logistic regression models, and stratified analyses were performed to explore potential effect modifiers. A total of 12,384 vaccinated children participated in screening for asthma and wheezing, 236 cases were screened, as well as 1445 controls were randomized. After adjusting for the covariates, childhood asthma and wheezing were significantly associated with cold exposure in the first trimester, with OR 1.731 (95% CI : 1.117–2.628), and cold exposure and heat exposure in the third trimester, with OR s 1.610 (95% CI : 1.030–2.473) and 2.039 (95% CI : 1.343–3.048). In the third trimester, enhanced impacts were found among girls, children whose distance of residence was close to the nearest main traffic road, and children whose parents have asthma. The study indicates that exposure to extreme AT during the first and third trimesters could increase the risk of childhood asthma and wheezing.
