Long-term effects of PM2.5 components on blood pressure and hypertension in Chinese children and adolescents

Jing Li et al.

Summary: This study found that long-term exposure to PM2.5 and its components may have adverse effects on blood pressure in children and adolescents. Black carbon is the most concerning component, as it is significantly associated with hypertension and elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

Associations of long-term exposure to ambient air pollutants with metabolic syndrome: The Wuhan Chronic Disease Cohort Study (WCDCS)

Yixuan Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the associations between long-term exposure to ambient air pollutants and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in Central China. The results show that higher concentrations of PM10, PM2.5, and O3 are associated with an increased prevalence of MetS. Furthermore, males, smokers, alcohol drinkers, and individuals who occasionally consume fruits are more susceptible to developing MetS.

Associations of Fine Particulate Matter Constituents with Metabolic Syndrome and the Mediating Role of Apolipoprotein B: A Multicenter Study in Middle-Aged and Elderly Chinese Adults

Weizhuo Yi et al.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) constituents and metabolic syndrome (MetS), and found that certain PM2.5 constituents were significantly associated with the prevalence of MetS. Furthermore, the study revealed that apolipoprotein B (ApoB) partially mediated the associations between PM2.5 constituents and MetS.

Adverse Effects of Black Carbon (BC) Exposure during Pregnancy on Maternal and Fetal Health: A Contemporary Review

Viktoriia Goriainova et al.

Summary: BC exposure has been correlated with adverse effects on fetal health, including low birth weight and preterm birth risks, as well as cardiometabolic and respiratory complications for the mother. Further research is needed to thoroughly investigate the increased risk of gestational diabetes and other maternal health issues associated with BC exposure.

Emission sources and full spectrum of health impacts of black carbon associated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in urban environment: A review

Muhammad Ubaid Ali et al.

Summary: The global burden of anthropogenic emissions through biomass and fossil fuel combustion, particularly black carbon and PAHs, poses a significant threat to the global climate system, air quality, and human health. These pollutants have been linked to a variety of serious health issues such as respiratory problems, bronchitis, heart problems, lung cancer, exacerbation of preexisting heart and lung disease, and asthma. Additionally, the majority of PAHs released into the environment due to combustion activities are classified as type 2A or 2B human carcinogens by US EPA, highlighting the severe health risks associated with them.

Ambient PM2.5 and its chemical constituents on lifetime-ever pneumonia in Chinese children: A multi-center study

Wenming Shi et al.

Summary: The study found that long-term exposure to ambient PM2.5 and its constituents increases the risk of childhood pneumonia, especially NH4+, NO3, and OM. Urban children, those under 5 years of age, and children breastfed for less than 6 months are at increased risk of pneumonia.

ENVINT-D-20-01309: Long-term exposure to air pollution, road traffic noise, residential greenness, and prevalent and incident metabolic syndrome: Results from the population-based KORA F4/FF4 cohort in Augsburg, Germany

Stephan Voss et al.

Summary: The study found positive associations between long-term exposure to air pollution and MetS prevalence, while exposure to greenness showed a negative but non-significant association with MetS. Road traffic noise did not have a significant effect on MetS. Joint Odds Ratios from multi-exposure models were higher than ORs from models with only one exposure.

Traffic-related air pollution is associated with glucose dysregulation, blood pressure, and oxidative stress in children

Jennifer K. Mann et al.

Summary: The study found that children's exposure to traffic-related air pollutants (TRAP) was associated with risk factors for metabolic syndrome and biomarkers of oxidative stress. Long-term exposure was linked to increases in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), while short-term exposure was significantly associated with oxidative stress. However, there was no significant association with anthropometric measures.

Bo-Yi Yang et al.

Summary: Research suggests a positive association between exposure to air pollution and the likelihood of visual impairment in children, with stronger effects observed in boys, older children, those living in rural areas, and those with parents of lower education levels or who smoke.

Ambient PM2.5 species and ultrafine particle exposure and their differential metabolomic signatures

Feiby L. Nassan et al.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the relative contribution of different species of PM2.5 exposure to perturbed metabolic pathways. Results showed that specific PM2.5 species were associated with inflammation, oxidative stress, immunity, and nucleic acid damage and repair in plasma metabolites. These findings highlight the importance of considering specific sources of PM2.5 exposure in understanding its impact on metabolic pathways.

Tracking Air Pollution in China: Near Real-Time PM2.5 Retrievals from Multisource Data Fusion

Guannan Geng et al.

Summary: The study introduces a near real-time air pollutant database named Tracking Air Pollution in China (TAP), which combines ground observations, satellite AOD, and other data sources to provide daily 10 km resolution PM2.5 data. The database utilizes a two-stage machine learning model to estimate PM2.5 concentrations, improving performance at high pollution levels and filling gaps in AOD data. The availability of daily PM2.5 data for tracking changes over time and long-term records since 2000 will support policy assessments and health impact studies.

Association between ambient particulate matter exposure and metabolic syndrome risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Jie Ning et al.

Summary: A systematic review and meta-analysis showed a positive association between long-term exposure to particulate matter and the risk of metabolic syndrome, with 12.28% of the risk attributable to PM2.5 exposure. The study highlighted the need for further research on the impact of particulate matter on metabolic syndrome.
