Allergic and pulmonary diseases are common chronic diseases in the general population including children. They can occur from very early childhood or later; then, they can remain stable or evolve into other forms until adulthood. Their prevalence and economic burden are increasing worldwide despite therapeutic advances. Thus, the management of allergic and pulmonary diseases has become an essential issue in the medical field. In parallel, pediatricians have had to change their approach to many allergic and pulmonary diseases since the latter requires constant updating, both from a pathogenic and therapeutic perspective. Pediatric allergy and pulmonology are highly relevant since many overlapping areas require a combined approach that leads to a complete understanding of the disease processes. This Research Topic aims to update knowledge on pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of allergic and pulmonary diseases, especially related to the pediatric population. Finally, in the era of the COVID-19 epidemic, any research on the diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients suffering from allergic and or pulmonary diseases who have encountered the SARS-CoV2 is especially welcome. Therefore this Research Topic also aims to collect and share early clinical experiences on this new infectious disease and create awareness for early recognition of this disease, especially in critically ill patients.
