Air pollution and fecundability: Results from a Danish preconception cohort study

Amelia K. Wesselink et al.

Summary: In a preconception cohort study of Danish women, residential exposures to PM2.5 and PM10 were associated with reduced fecundability, while other air pollutants did not show a significant association.

The association between wildfire exposure in pregnancy and foetal gastroschisis: A population-based cohort study

Bo Young Park et al.

Summary: Exposure to wildfire within 30 days before pregnancy was associated with a more than two times higher risk of foetal gastroschisis, whereas a 28% higher risk was demonstrated if exposure occurred in the first trimester.

Residential particulate matter, proximity to major roads, traffic density and traffic volume as risk factors for preterm birth in California

Jean M. Costello et al.

Summary: In a large population study in California, it was found that higher levels of PM2.5 and diesel PM were associated with an increased risk of preterm birth, while living closer to major roads or in areas with high traffic density did not increase the risk of preterm birth. This suggests that measures of distance to major roads do not serve as a proxy for particulate matter levels in relation to preterm birth.

Extreme heat and its association with social disparities in the risk of spontaneous preterm birth

Lara Cushing et al.

Summary: This study found that exposure to extreme heat is associated with a higher risk of preterm birth, with stronger associations in early pregnancy and in communities with racial and economic disadvantages, indicating that climate change may exacerbate existing social inequalities in preterm birth rates.

Postnatal exposure to ambient temperature and rapid weight gain among infants delivered at term gestations: a population-based cohort study

Carlos Francisco Dionicio Lopez et al.

Summary: Exposure to high ambient temperatures during infancy in Israel is positively associated with rapid infant weight gain, suggesting the importance of considering temperature exposure in the context of childhood obesity prevention efforts. Future studies should further investigate the nature and sources of this association.

Air pollution and preterm birth: A time-stratified case-crossover study in the San Joaquin Valley of California

Sandie Ha et al.

Summary: Air pollution, specifically PM2.5 and ozone, are associated with increased risk of very preterm birth, moderate preterm birth, and early term birth within a week of exposure. Ozone was found to contribute to more excess cases of preterm births compared to PM2.5. More research is needed to better understand the role of air pollution in preterm birth risk.

High ambient temperature and child emergency and hospital visits in New York City

Li Niu et al.

Summary: This study in NYC shows that young children are most vulnerable to heat effects, while older children and adolescents are also sensitive. It highlights the importance of focusing on children and adolescents in heat illness prevention and emergency response efforts as global temperatures rise.
