Association of long-term exposure to ambient air pollution with the number of tuberculosis cases notified: a time-series study in Hong Kong

Man Xu et al.

Summary: The study found that long-term exposure to high concentrations of air pollution in Hong Kong may be associated with an increase in the number of notified tuberculosis cases. Nonlinear relationships were identified between PM10, PM2.5, and CO concentrations and tuberculosis notifications, with concentrations above specific percentiles leading to an increase in notification rates.

Revalue associations of short-term exposure to air pollution with respiratory hospital admissions in Lanzhou, China after the control and treatment of current pollution

Jiyuan Dong et al.

Summary: This study found that various pollutants in Lanzhou, including PM2.5, PM10, SO2, CO, and O-3, have significant impacts on respiratory admissions, with females and younger age groups being more vulnerable to air pollution than males and the elderly. Additionally, the positive associations were more pronounced in the cold season compared to the warm season.

Particulate matter pollution and emergency room visits for respiratory diseases in a valley Basin city of Northwest China

Bowen Cheng et al.

Summary: Particulate matter (PM) pollution has a significant impact on respiratory emergency room visits, especially during winter. Different age and gender groups show varying levels of sensitivity to PM pollution, with children under 15 years old and individuals over 60 years old being the most susceptible. The findings provide scientific evidence for local governments to formulate policies for the prevention of respiratory diseases.

Association between atmospheric PM2.5 and daily outpatient visits for children's respiratory diseases in Lanzhou

Jiyuan Dong et al.

Summary: The study found a significant positive association between ambient PM2.5 levels and hospital outpatient visits in children with respiratory diseases in Lanzhou, China. Males were more sensitive to the adverse effects, and the association was more significant in the spring and winter months, with children aged 3-6 years demonstrating a higher risk of respiratory disease. The exposure-response curves were positive and generally nonlinear but became flattened at concentrations over 60 μg/m³.

Risks of exposure to ambient air pollutants on the admission of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases in Kuala Lumpur

Nurzawani Md Sofwan et al.

Summary: The study assessed the health risks associated with exposure to air pollutants in Kuala Lumpur, finding that respiratory admissions were linked to increases in PM10, NO2, and CO, while cardiovascular admissions were associated with NO2 concentration. Adverse respiratory health effects were observed even when air quality standards were met, emphasizing the importance of timely preventive measures to mitigate these risks to human health.

Spatial and Temporal Characteristics of Environmental Air Quality and Its Relationship with Seasonal Climatic Conditions in Eastern China during 2015-2018

Zhiyuan Wang et al.

Summary: Exploring the relationship between environmental air quality and climatic conditions in China can help understand the distribution characteristics and mechanisms of air quality, which is crucial for regional air pollution prevention and control policies. The study in Eastern China from 2015 to 2018 showed improvements in air quality, with decreasing concentrations of CO, SO2, and NO2 but relatively stable levels of PM2.5 and PM10, alongside an increase in O3 concentrations. Analyzing AQI patterns revealed a summer-winter mode and a north-south dipole pattern, influenced by precipitation variability and seasonal variations of PM2.5 and O3 concentrations.
