Allergenic pollen and pollen allergy in Europe
TLDR
Even though pollen production and dispersal from year to year depend on the patterns of preseason weather and on the conditions prevailing at the time of anthesis, it is usually possible to forecast the chances of encountering high atmospheric allergenic pollen concentrations in different areas.

Urban air pollution and climate change as environmental risk factors of respiratory allergy: an update.
TLDR
A more severe immunoglobulin (Ig) E-mediated response to aeroallergens and airway inflammation could account for increasing prevalence of allergic respiratory diseases in polluted urban areas.

Evolutionary lineages of nickel hyperaccumulation and systematics in European Alysseae (Brassicaceae): evidence from nrDNA sequence data.
TLDR
Molecular data strongly support the poorly known hyperaccumulator endemic Leptoplax (Peltaria) emarginata as sister to hyper Accumulator species of Bornmuellera within Alysseae within A. Odontarrhena, and genetic continuity and strong phenotypic plasticity in the A. murale complex call for a reduction of the number of Ni hyperaccUMulator taxa formally recognized.

Relationship between work-related accidents and hot weather conditions in Tuscany (central Italy).
TLDR
Findings showed that hot weather conditions might represent a risk factor for work-related accidents in Italy during summer, and might represent the first step for the development of a watch/warning system for workers that might be used by employers for planning work activities.
