Metals, pollutants, and risk of allergies
Part of Digestive system, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at whether heavy metals, nanoparticles, and other pollutants in the environment increase the risk of allergic diseases like contact dermatitis. If you have a metal allergy or are a healthy adult, you may help researchers understand how these exposures affect your health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You either have allergic contact dermatitis from metals, a systemic allergic syndrome from metals, or you are a healthy adult.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have chronic kidney failure requiring dialysis or similar treatment.
- You do not have other health conditions caused by metal exposure, or certain gut or skin diseases (like celiac, inflammatory bowel disease, tumors, or other skin conditions).

This study tests whether a children's environmental health clinic can help families manage chronic respiratory conditions like asthma. It focuses on your child's home environment and provides follow-up support.
This study looks at how environmental fungi (mold) affect lung function and asthma. Researchers need healthy volunteers without lung disease to compare results.
This study looks at how common allergens and everyday toxins from things like cleaning products affect your skin, gut, and airways. It may help find ways to prevent or manage allergies and related health issues.
This study observes how your body responds to environmental exposures or injuries over time. It aims to understand how different factors like genetics or lifestyle affect your health.
This study compares heavy metal levels in people who eat different types of diets—vegetarian/vegan, low-carb, or traditional omnivorous. It will help understand if certain diets lead to higher or lower exposure to toxic metals.
This study creates a biorepository to collect and store samples (blood, nasal fluid, skin swabs) from people with allergies, asthma, sinus disorders, or immune dysregulation. It aims to better understand these conditions over time, which may help develop better treatments.
