Climate Change, Pollution, and Sustainability in Rheumatic Diseases, An Issue of Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1st Edition
In this issue of Rheumatic Disease Clinics, guest editors Drs. Tamiko R. Katsumoto and Fredrick W. Miller bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Climate Change, Pollution, and Sustainability in Rheumatic Diseases. Climate change, pollution, and sustainability impact rheumatic diseases by influencing their prevalence and progression through environmental triggers like rising temperatures and air pollution. In addition, the healthcare sector’s reliance on biologics and frequent monitoring also raises sustainability concerns, requiring eco-friendly practices and reduced waste in rheumatology care. In this issue, top experts explore key topics in this timely area.
