According to a new study carried out by Amarjit Mishra of Auburn University, air pollutants or allergens such as dust mites can produce oxidative stress in the airways, leading to increased inflammation and damage to airway cells.
Many scientists, including Dr. Amarjit Mishra an Ex-professor, Auburn University in the United States, had worked to understand the pathogenesis of asthma, particularly allergy-induced asthma because it is crucial to understand the underlying mechanism that connects these environmental causes to the development of asthma.
As per the doctors, during acute asthma attacks, quick-relief drugs like oral corticosteroids and short-acting beta-agonists (like albuterol) are frequently used to decrease inflammation and alleviate symptoms. However, biomedical researchers such as Amarjit Mishra, a great scientist,
This document provides background information on asthma. It discusses how asthma is a chronic lung disease that causes inflammation and narrowing of the airways. The prevalence of asthma has increased globally and in the US over the past 20 years. Both genetic and environmental factors like air pollution contribute to the development and exacerbation of asthma. The document outlines research on asthma induction and risk factors. It also discusses government and non-governmental organization efforts to address asthma as a public health issue through research, guidelines, programs and advocacy.
This document discusses the link between pesticide exposure and asthma, particularly in children. It notes that asthma rates have increased significantly in recent decades. Children are especially susceptible to developing asthma due to pesticides because their organs are still developing and they ingest more chemicals proportionally. Several studies have found associations between higher pesticide exposure through agriculture, homes and communities and increased asthma rates and severity. Specific pesticides like glyphosate and organophosphates are linked to respiratory problems. Reducing pesticide use and integrating non-toxic pest control methods can help limit asthma risks.
The American Heart Association has updated its scientific statement on the link between air pollution and cardiovascular disease. The evidence shows that exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) can trigger heart attacks, strokes and death, especially in susceptible individuals such as the elderly and those with heart disease. Long-term exposure to elevated PM2.5 levels increases cardiovascular risk and reduces life expectancy. While reducing traditional risk factors is important, people should also limit their exposure to air pollution when possible and support policies to decrease particulate matter levels.

This honors thesis examines the potential for acetaminophen to potentiate the effects of oxidant air pollutants and contribute to the onset of asthma. Using a mouse model, the study found that low, non-toxic doses of acetaminophen greatly increased the reflex irritant response to environmental tobacco smoke, likely by increasing oxidative stress in the airways. This is notable because acetaminophen usage has risen along with asthma rates in recent decades. The results suggest acetaminophen's metabolite NAPQI may potentiate the effects of oxidant pollutants, representing a possible new link between acetaminophen and asthma development.
Air pollution has become a major concern for our modern world. These pollutants are known to cause serious toxic impact on human health and the environment. According to the World Health Organization report, six major air pollutants include particle pollution, ground-level ozone, carbon monoxide, sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxides, and lead. Prolonged exposure to these suspended toxicants may have an impact on the human respiratory and cardiovascular system, neuropsychiatric complications, the eyes irritation, skin diseases, and long-term chronic diseases such as cancer. Several reports have shown the direct association between exposure to the poor air quality and increasing rate of morbidity and mortality. For years’ air pollutants have been associated to a range of health outcomes, most notably cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. However, the effects of air pollutants on mental health conditions have been less-well studied, and mostly confined to epidemiological studies. Observational evidence has revealed associations between increasing levels of several components of air pollution and a range of mental health outcomes. Air pollutants are also the cause of serious neurocognitive effects ranging from behavioural variations to neurodegenerative disorders that ultimately have devastating effects on mental health. Let us try to understand the air quality vs mental health debate in detail.
The document defines air pollution as gases or dust in harmful amounts that can affect human health or the environment. It identifies the three main sources of air pollution as primary pollutants emitted directly into the air, secondary pollutants created by chemical reactions of primary pollutants, and examples include car exhaust and coal combustion. Air pollution can cause both short-term effects like respiratory issues and long-term health impacts such as cancer, heart disease, and neurological effects. It also damages plant and animal environments by direct contact with pollutants or indirectly through impacts on resources.
The document discusses the negative health impacts of air pollution. It notes that air pollution is a major risk factor for diseases like asthma, emphysema, lung cancer and heart attacks.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease damaged the respiratory system, which has recently been relatively prevalent in developing countries. The presence of inflammatory and intramuscular factors in the smooth muscles of the airway walls may lead to narrowing of these channels. Substance P is a member of neurokinin family with 11 amino acids that causes pain relief and has various effects on the smooth muscles of the respiratory airways. In this study, the level of substance P, spirometric parameters and arterial blood gases were analyzed in 60 patients with asthma (30 males and 30 females) with mean age 63.67 ± 14.61 years in 2018 at 17-e-shahrivar hospital (Mashhad, Iran). After completing the written consent and the information form, the levels of substance P, pH, O2 and CO2 pressure, bicarbonate, as well as vital capacity, forced vital capacity and FEV1 were evaluated.
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness and coughing. It affects approximately 300 million people worldwide. The document discusses the definition, epidemiology, risk factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and management of childhood asthma. Genetic and environmental factors such as viral infections, allergens and air pollution are known to trigger asthma symptoms.
This document discusses the relationship between air pollution and asthma. It states that air pollution affects the health of millions and is especially detrimental for those with asthma. Various air pollutants such as particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds are emitted from sources like vehicles, industry and burning fossil fuels. These pollutants can irritate the airways and trigger asthma symptoms. Both short and long-term exposure to air pollution are associated with increased asthma attacks, reduced lung function, progression of asthma severity and other respiratory issues. Reducing air pollution is important for better asthma management.
Smog and air pollution negatively impact human health in several ways. Children, seniors, and fetuses are most at risk. Exposure can worsen respiratory diseases and symptoms, and may even cause some respiratory illnesses. Pollutants in smog can enter the bloodstream through the lungs and accumulate in organs, affecting especially the circulatory and respiratory systems. Symptoms of smog poisoning include headaches, fatigue, coughing, and eye and nasal irritation. Long-term exposure increases risks of cancer, respiratory diseases, and a weakened immune system. It is important to monitor air quality and take protective measures like wearing an anti-smog mask on high pollution days.
1) Asthma is a chronic lung disease characterized by inflammation of the airways and periods of wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.
2) Risk factors for asthma include family history, allergies, viral infections, obesity, and exposure to environmental factors like cigarette smoke and air pollution.
3) Symptoms of an asthma attack include coughing, wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Long term complications if asthma is uncontrolled include reduced lung function, sleep disturbances, limitations to physical activity, and potentially life-threatening asthma attacks.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
This slide is special for master students (MIBS & MIFB) in UUM. Also useful for readers who are interested in the topic of contemporary Islamic banking.

Dr Amarjit Mishra Sheds Light on the Link Between Air Pollution and Asthma Exacerbations
1. Dr Amarjit Mishra Sheds Light on the Link
Between Air Pollution and Asthma Exacerbations
Scientists such as Dr. Amarjit
Mishra, Angelica L Tiotiu,
Denislava Nideva and Michael
Guarnieri have been found to
make elaborate efforts in this
direction.
2.
3. According to a new study carried
out by Amarjit Mishra of Auburn
University, air pollutants or
allergens such as dust mites can
produce oxidative stress in the
airways, leading to increased
inflammation and damage to
airway cells. This can aggravate
asthma symptoms and precipitate
asthma exacerbations.
4. This means that even minor
triggers that would not normally
cause asthma symptoms can lead
to an exaggerated response in
individuals with asthma, leading
to asthma exacerbations. Air
pollution can increase the
sensitivity of the airways,
leading to heightened bronchial
hyperresponsiveness.
5. Amarjit Mishra has further
highlighted that the relationship
between air pollution and asthma
exacerbations can be complex and
may vary depending on individual
susceptibility, duration and
intensity of exposure, and other
factors.
