Association between household air pollution and all-cause and cause-specific mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2022 Nov 21. doi: 10.1007/s11356-022-24222-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRecently, a growing number of epidemiological studies have examined the relationship between household air pollution (HAP) and all-cause and cause-specific mortality. While the results were not entirely consistent, the current study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol to conduct a comprehensive review and meta-analysis. Data sources were PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library for studies published up to 12 May 2022. The pooled relative risks (RRs...

Meta analysis of health effects of ambient air pollution exposure in low- and middle-income countries
Environ Res. 2022 Nov 11:114604. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.114604. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIt is well established that exposure to ambient air pollution affects human health. A majority of literature concentrated on health effects of air pollution in high income countries. Only fewer studies analyzing health effects of air pollution in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) are available. To bridge this gap in literature, this study investigated short term and long-term health impacts of ambient air pollutants focussed in LMICs. We evaluated Total Non-accidental mortality, Respiratory Mortality, Stroke Mortality, ...

Associations between short-term exposure of PM < sub > 2.5 < /sub > constituents and hospital admissions of cardiovascular diseases among 18 major Chinese cities
This study aimed to investigate the association between short-term exposure of PM2.5 constituents and hospital admissions of CVD. Daily counts of city-specific hospital admissions for CVD in 18 cities in China between 2014 and 2017 were extracted from the national Urban Employee Basic Medical Insurance database and the Beijing Municipal Commission of Health and Family Planning Information Center database. Directly measured PM2.5 constituents, including ions and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, were collected by the Chinese Environmental Public Health Tracking system. We used the time-stratified case-crossover design to es...

Association of long-term exposure to PM < sub > 2.5 < /sub > and survival following ischemic heart disease
CONCLUSION: Mortality from all-cause and cardiovascular disease following hospitalization due to ischemic heart disease was higher among individuals with greater PM2.5 exposure in seven major cities in South Korea. The result supports the association of long-term exposure to air pollution with poor prognosis among patients with ischemic heart disease.PMID:36208782 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2022.114440

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 12827: Sex Differences in Cardiovascular Disease Mortality in Brazil between 1996 and 2019
Conclusion: ACD, CVD, IHD, and stroke were reduced more significantly in women, and the ratio of CVD, IHD, and CVD in men and women increased more in men. Future studies will be needed to determine the main factors responsible for a better outcome in women.

Association of short-term exposure to ambient PM < sub > 1 < /sub > with total and cause-specific cardiovascular disease mortality
CONCLUSIONS: We found that short-term exposure to ambient PM1 was significantly associated with an increased odds of mortality from total and specific CVDs and may lead to considerable excess mortality especially among older adults. Our findings highlight a potential approach to prevent premature CVD deaths by reducing PM1 exposures and provide essential quantitative data for the development of future air quality standards for ambient PM1.PMID:36152364 | DOI:10.1016/j.envint.2022.107519

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 11243: High Temperatures and Cardiovascular-Related Morbidity: A Scoping Review
Piotr Wilk The primary objective of this review was to synthesize studies assessing the relationships between high temperatures and cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related hospital encounters (i.e., emergency department (ED) visits or hospitalizations) in urban Canada and other comparable populations, and to identify areas for future research. Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Scopus were searched between 6 April and 11 April 2020, and on 21 March 2021, to identify articles examining the relationship between high temperatures and CVD-related hospital encounters. Studies involvin...
