Cumulative exposure amount of PM2.5 in the ambient air is associated with coronary atherosclerosis - Serial coronary CT angiography study

Heesun Lee et al.

Summary: This study found that long-term exposure to fine particulate matter PM2.5 is associated with the progression of coronary atherosclerosis. The cumulative amount of PM2.5 exposure is more strongly linked to the development of coronary artery calcification than other traditional cardiovascular risk factors.

Effects of ambient air pollution on glycosylated hemoglobin: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Li Tian et al.

Summary: Air pollution is closely related to metabolism disorders, but the impact of ambient air pollution on HbA1c has inconsistent conclusions. This study conducted a meta-analysis on existing literature and found that exposure to PM10, PM2.5, and NO2 is significantly associated with increased HbA1c levels.

Pollution and health: a progress update

Richard Fuller et al.

Summary: The Lancet Commission on pollution and health reported that pollution was responsible for 9 million premature deaths in 2015, making it the world's largest environmental risk factor for disease and premature death. Updated data from 2019 shows that pollution is still responsible for approximately 9 million deaths per year, with reductions in some types of pollution offset by increases in others. Despite efforts, little progress has been made in addressing pollution, particularly in low-income and middle-income countries.

The Foam Cell Formation Associated With Imbalanced Cholesterol Homeostasis Due to Airborne Magnetite Nanoparticles Exposure

Haiyi Yu et al.

Summary: Fine particulate matter (PM) is a major environmental factor contributing to the development of atherosclerosis. This study found that exposure to PM promoted the formation of foam cells, a crucial pathological process in atherosclerosis. Additionally, magnetite nanoparticles were identified as a key toxic component of PM in facilitating foam cell formation.

Air pollutants, genetic factors, and risk of chronic kidney disease: Findings from the UK Biobank

Jianing Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of air pollutants on chronic kidney disease in the European population and explores the modification effect of genetic risk. The results show that exposure to PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and NOx increases the risk of CKD, especially in individuals with low to intermediate genetic risk.

Long-term exposure to ambient air pollution is associated with coronary artery calcification among asymptomatic adults

Quan Huynh et al.

Summary: The study found that exposure to higher levels of PM2.5 and NO2 is associated with increased odds of coronary artery calcification in asymptomatic adults, even at low concentrations. These results suggest that air pollution may be one of the residual risk factors of coronary artery disease.

Ambient Air Pollution and Atherosclerosis Insights Into Dose, Time, and Mechanisms

Graham H. Bevan et al.

Summary: Ambient air pollution from particulate matter <= 2.5μm is a major environmental risk factor contributing to global mortality, particularly due to atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. Studies suggest that even at levels below air quality guidelines in North America and Europe, there is a continued association between particulate matter <= 2.5 levels and ASCVD. Research in animals and humans has provided insights into the mechanisms through which air pollution exposure may predispose individuals to atherosclerosis.

Global burden of ischemic heart disease attributable to ambient PM2.5 pollution from 1990 to 2017

Lina Wang et al.

Summary: The study aimed to estimate the global spatial and temporal variation in the PM2.5 associated ischemic heart disease (IHD) burden between 1990 and 2017. Despite a decrease in the global age-standardized burden of IHD attributable to PM2.5 during this period, there has been an increase in some low and middle-income countries, especially in Asia, Oceania, and Africa. This shift in burden highlights the contrasting trends in high-income countries and regions like Asia, Oceania, and sub-Saharan Africa.

Jing Wei et al.

Summary: The newly developed STET model, incorporating various factors, was utilized to generate a high-resolution PM10 dataset for China from 2015 to 2019, demonstrating higher accuracy and performance compared to previous models. High levels of PM10 concentration were observed in northwest China (e.g., the Tarim Basin) and the Northern China Plain, with an overall significant decline in PM10 concentrations over the past five years in China.

Cardiovascular effects of air pollution: current evidence from animal and human studies

Agnes Maria Lederer et al.

Summary: Air pollution, particularly PM2.5, is significantly associated with cardiovascular health issues such as hypertension, heart disease, and arrhythmia. Mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular effects of air pollution include oxidative stress, systemic inflammation, and more. Air pollution poses a serious threat to global health and calls for stricter standards to reduce disease burden. Continued research is essential to gain further insights into the health impact of air pollution.

Anamika Pandey et al.

Summary: The study estimated the impact of air pollution on human health and the economy in India. In 2019, air pollution led to 1.67 million deaths and an economic loss of $36.8 billion, accounting for 1.36% of India's GDP. The economic impact varied significantly among states, with low per-capita GDP states like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar experiencing the highest losses.
