Abstract

ABSTRACT An increase in respiratory diseases during stormy summer periods has been noted for many years. The purpose of this study, besides a literature search, was to relate different aerobiological parameters (concentrations of molds and pollens), weather (temperature, relative humidity, rainfall and storms), and air pollution (PM10, PM2,5, O3, NO2…) to hospitalizations based on emergency department data or “SOS médecins” calls for serious respiratory problems. The current study was carried out in the summer seasons from 2008 to 2013 with the help of the personal of the Pulmonary and Allergy department, the Division of Public Health and the Emergency Department of the Strasbourg University Hospital, “SOS médecins” in Strasbourg, as well as the RNSA (Réseau national de surveillance aérobiologique), the ASPA Alsace, Météo-France and Météorage. Among aerobiological parameters, a sharp increase in concentrations of Didymella sp. was observed during stormy periods. These periods also favor occasional increase in respiratory diseases.
