Clinical ecology : ウィキペディア英語版 | Clinical ecology Clinical ecology was the name given by proponents in the 1960s to a claim that exposure to low levels of certain chemical agents harm susceptible people, causing multiple chemical sensitivity and other disorders. Clinical ecologists are people that support and promote this offshoot of conventional medicine.〔 They often have a background in the field of allergy or otorhinolaryngology, and the theoretical approach is derived in part from classic concepts of allergic responses, first articulated by Theron Randolph. Clinical ecologists support a cause-and-effect relationships for non-specific symptoms reported by some people after low dose exposure to chemical, biologic, or physical agents. This pattern of low dose reaction is not generally accepted by toxicologists.〔 Although some of the mainstream medical community continue to reject these claims, the concept is gaining in recognition under the modern and more clearly articulated classification of environmental medicine.〔 〔 Biological Factors that Underlie Individual Susceptibility to Environmental Stressors and Their Implications for Decision-Making. The National Academies. Washington D.C. April 18-19, 2012. http://nas-sites.org/emergingscience/meetings/individual-variability/〕 ==Training and qualifications== "Clinical Ecologist" is an environmental approach that is consistent with the practice of holistic medicine. Practitioners with this orientation do not use the term "Clinical Ecologist," although those opposed to this complementary medicine approach to illness often still do. Unlike terms such as ''physician'' or ''nurse'', the term ''clinical ecologist'' is not legally regulated in any jurisdiction, which means that any person may legally claim to be a clinical ecologist. If wanted, they may obtain an extralegal certification or membership from the unregulated private organization American Academy of Environmental Medicine upon payment of a fee.〔Federal Judicial Center, (Reference Manual on Scientific Evidence, second edition ), pages 30, 416-17, 432 (2000).〕〔(Membership requirements ) of the American Academy of Environmental Medicine. Accessed 27 October 2009.〕 Many clinical ecologists are traditionally licensed healthcare professionals who hold advanced traditional medical certifications. Others may have a more alternative training. (needed )
