Short-term exposure to reduced specific-size ambient particulate matter increase the risk of cause-specific cardiovascular disease: A national-wide evidence from hospital admissions
This study provides robust evidence of short-term associations between PM1 concentrations and increased hospital admissions for all major cardiovascular diseases in China. Our findings suggest a greater short-term impact on cardiovascular risk from PM1 in comparison to PM2.5 and PM10.PMID:37611473 | DOI:10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115327

Quantifying the potential effects of air pollution reduction on population health and health expenditure in Taiwan
Environ Pollut. 2023 Aug 17:122405. doi: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122405. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAir pollution, particularly ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution, poses a significant risk to public health, underscoring the importance of comprehending the long-term impact on health burden and expenditure at national and subnational levels. Therefore, this study aims to quantify the disease burden and healthcare expenditure associated with PM2.5 exposure in Taiwan and assess the potential benefits of reducing pollution levels. Using a comparative risk assessment framework that integrates an auto-aggressive i...

Effect modification by high-concentration duration in the association between particulate matters and stroke hospital admissions among hypertension patients in Beijing, China
AbstractTo investigate the associations between particulate matter (PM) and hospital admissions for stroke and its subtypes among hypertension patients. We proposed a new modifier named high-concentration duration (HCD). Data on daily hospital admissions, air pollution, and meteorological factors were collected from 2014 to 2018 in Beijing, China. We included all patients with hypertension who were admitted to hospitals of secondary-level and above for stroke. Time-series analysis was conducted by fitting a generalized additive model. An interaction term of daily concentration and an HCD stratum indicator were included in ...

Spatial assessment of the attributable burden of disease due to transportation noise in England
CONCLUSION: Transportation noise exposures contribute to a significant and unequal environmental disease burden in England. Omitting minor roads from the noise exposure modelling leads to underestimation of the disease burden.PMID:37390771 | DOI:10.1016/j.envint.2023.107966

Short-term effects of individual exposure to PM < sub > 2.5 < /sub > on hospital admissions for myocardial infarction and stroke: a population-based case-crossover study in Guangzhou, China
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Jun 5. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-28058-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSome studies have investigated the effects of PM2.5 on cardiovascular diseases based on the population-average exposure data from several monitoring stations. No one has explored the short-term effect of PM2.5 on cardiovascular hospitalizations using individual-level exposure data. We assessed the short-term effects of individual exposure to PM2.5 on hospitalizations for myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke in Guangzhou, China, during 2014-2019. The population-based data on cardio-cerebrovascular events were provided by ...

Burden of disease due to transportation noise in the Nordic countries
CONCLUSION: Further harmonization of noise exposure data is required for between-country comparisons. Moreover, nationwide noise models indicate that DALY estimates based on END considerably underestimate national BoD due to transportation noise. The health-related burden of traffic noise was comparable to that of air pollution, an established risk factor for disease in the GBD framework. Inclusion of environmental noise as a risk factor in the GBD is strongly encouraged.PMID:37156356 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2023.116077

Pollution from fine particulate matter and atherosclerosis: A narrative review
Environ Int. 2023 Apr 10;175:107923. doi: 10.1016/j.envint.2023.107923. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAccording to the WHO, the entire global population is exposed to air pollution levels higher than recommended for health preservation. Air pollution is a complex mixture of nano- to micro-sized particles and gaseous components that poses a major global threat to public health. Among the most important air pollutants, causal associations have been established between particulate matter (PM), mainly < 2.5 μm, and cardiovascular diseases (CVD), i.e., hypertension, coronary artery disease, ischemic stroke, congestive heart...

IJERPH, Vol. 20, Pages 5566: Multi-City Analysis of the Acute Effect of Polish Smog on Cause-Specific Mortality (EP-PARTICLES Study)
ma
Polish smog is a specific type of air pollution present in Eastern Poland, which may cause particularly adverse cardiovascular effects. It is characterized primarily by high concentrations of particulate matter (PM) and different favorable conditions of formation. Our study aimed to assess whether PM and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) have a short-term impact on mortality due to acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and ischemic stroke (IS). The study covered the years 2016&ndash;2020, a total of 6 million person-years from five main cities in Eastern Poland. To evaluate the association between air pollution and cause-spec...

IJERPH, Vol. 20, Pages 5328: Biological, Psychiatric, Psychosocial, and Cognitive Factors of Poststroke Depression
Discussion: Results suggest that PSD is likely multifactorial and extends the literature by demonstrating that a comorbid anxiety disorder correlated strongest with PSD. Poststroke screening and treatment plans should address not only depression but comorbid anxiety.

Air pollution and stroke hospitalization in the Beibu Gulf Region of China: A case-crossover analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Short-term increase in SO2, NO2, and PM10 might be important triggers of stroke hospitalization. All seven air pollutants were associated with ischemic stroke hospitalization, while only CO was associated with hemorrhagic stroke hospitalization. These results should be considered in public health policy.PMID:36965278 | DOI:10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.114814
