“…Two presentations focused on in utero exposures and the respiratory health of children. In the Italian Nascita e Infanzia: gli Effetti dell'Ambiente-Birth and Childhood: effects of the environment (NINFEA) birth cohort [1], Franca Rusconi et al investigated the impact of pesticide exposures, agricultural and gardening activities, and proximity to crops during the first and third trimesters of pregnancy on wheezing in infants [2]. Agricultural and gardening activities were not associated with wheezing.…”

In this article, early career members of the Epidemiology and Environment Assembly of the European Respiratory Society (ERS) summarise a selection of five sessions from the Society's 2022 congress, with a focus on areas of specific interest for the Assembly,i.e.epidemiology and risk factors of respiratory diseases in both children and adults. Topics covered include the characterization of obstructive respiratory diseases, their comorbidities, and their evolution, with novel insight from large cohorts. The importance of early-life factors in respiratory health was also emphasized, including maternal exposures and habits during pregnancy. As smoking behaviours have changed following the introduction of e-cigarettes and heated tobacco products, research remains very active to determine the health consequences and predictors of these novel uses, especially in teenagers. The impact of environmental and occupational exposures on respiratory health remains a major topic of the congress, this year with a focus on emerging risk factors such as landscape fire smoke, non-exhaust particles, and nanoparticles. Regarding workplace exposures, old and novel causes of occupational asthma and rhinitis were discussed.

“…Three presentations addressed early life factors with two focusing on maternal exposures during pregnancy. R usconi et al [ 58 ] analysed data from 5997 children from the Italian NINFEA birth cohort (Nascita e Infanzia: gli Effetti dell'Ambiente – Birth and Childhood: effects of the environment) and found some evidence of association for self-reported pesticide use during pregnancy and residential proximity to fruit tree cultivations, with infant wheezing [ 58 , 59 ].

“…• Monitoring respiratory oscillatory mechanics can lead to improved outcomes in critically unwell infants and children. (Nascita e Infanzia: gli Effetti dell'Ambiente-Birth and Childhood: effects of the environment) and found some evidence of association for self-reported pesticide use during pregnancy and residential proximity to fruit tree cultivations, with infant wheezing (58,59). Delvert et al identified five allergic and respiratory profiles (i.e.…”

This review has been prepared by the Early Career Members and Chairs of the European Respiratory Society (ERS) Assembly 7: Paediatrics. We here summarise the highlights of the advances in paediatric respiratory research presented at the ERS International Congress 2022. The eight scientific Groups of this Assembly cover a wide range of research areas, including respiratory physiology and sleep, asthma and allergy, cystic fibrosis (CF), respiratory infection and immunology, neonatology and intensive care, respiratory epidemiology, bronchology, and lung and airway developmental biology. Specifically, we report on abstracts presented at the congress on the effect of high altitude on sleep, sleep disorders, the hypoxic challenge test, and measurements of ventilation inhomogeneity. We discuss prevention of preschool wheeze and asthma, and new asthma medications. In children with CF, we describe how to monitor the effect of CF transmembrane conductance regulator modulator therapy. We present respiratory manifestations and chronic lung disease associated with common variable immunodeficiency. Furthermore, we discuss how to monitor respiratory function in neonatal and paediatric intensive care units. In respiratory epidemiology, we present the latest news from population-based and clinical cohort studies. We also focus on innovative and interventional procedures for the paediatric airway, such as cryotherapy. Finally, we stress the importance of better understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying normal and abnormal lung development.
