DINIS, Carolina et al. Associations between exposure to green spaces and the development of asthma and allergic disease in urban environments: From coherence to scientific controversy. Rev Port Imunoalergologia [online]. 2021, vol.29, n.3, pp.159-166. Epub 30-Set-2021. ISSN 0871-9721. https://doi.org/10.32932/rpia.2021.09.062.
Exposure to urban environments has been associated with the development of asthma and allergic disease. However, the associations found still generate controversy, with some studies indicating green spaces as protectors for the development of allergic diseases, while others point out these exposures as having an inducing role in the exacerbation of the associated symptomatology. This article aims to review the scientific evidence published so far in order to discuss the possible effect of exposure to urban green spaces on the development of asthma and allergic disease in children, with special focus on studies conducted in Portugal.
