Associations Between Extreme Temperatures and Cardiovascular Cause-Specific Mortality: Results From 27 Countries

Barrak Alahmad et al.

Summary: A study found that exposure to extreme hot and cold temperatures is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease mortality. The study used data from 567 cities in 27 countries and found a positive correlation between high and low temperatures and mortality from various cardiovascular diseases. The highest risks were observed for heart attacks and stroke during exposure to extreme temperatures.

Sources, characteristics, toxicity, and control of ultrafine particles: An overview

Andrea L. Moreno-Rios et al.

Summary: Air pollution caused by particulate matter is a major threat to human health, especially in large cities. The size, composition, and toxicity of these particles vary. Ultrafine particles have a greater impact on human health as they can enter the lungs and vital organs, leading to diseases. In addition, particulate matter pollution is associated with respiratory conditions, genotoxicity, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity.

Air pollution exposure disparities across US population and income groups

Abdulrahman Jbaily et al.

Summary: Air pollution, particularly exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5), contributes significantly to global mortality rates. In the United States, racial/ethnic minorities and lower-income groups face a higher risk of death from PM2.5 exposure. Additionally, disparities in air pollution exposure exist among different population and income groups. Regions with higher proportions of White and Native American populations consistently experience lower PM2.5 levels compared to regions with higher proportions of Black, Asian, Hispanic, or Latino populations. Low-income areas consistently have higher average PM2.5 levels than high-income areas. Moreover, exposure disparities relative to safety standards set by the US Environmental Protection Agency and World Health Organization have increased over time. These findings highlight the need for targeted measures to reduce PM2.5 and ensure equitable environmental protection. This study is observational and cannot provide insights into the driving factors behind the identified disparities.

Long-term trends of ultrafine and fine particle number concentrations in New York State: Apportioning between emissions and dispersion

Yunle Chen et al.

Summary: In the United States, various efforts have been made to improve air quality in the past few decades. Ambient particulate matter (PM) concentrations have been used as an indicator to evaluate the effectiveness of environmental policies. Dispersion normalization, a recent development, has proven to be an effective approach in enhancing diel/seasonal patterns, thus providing improved source apportionment results for speciated PM mass and particle number concentration (PNC) measurements. This study incorporated dispersion normalization in the long-term trend analysis of PNCs in Rochester, NY from 2005 to 2019, and found that the changes in PNCs were driven by both emission rates and meteorological conditions. It is important for future studies to assess the effects of changing meteorological conditions when evaluating the effectiveness of PM concentration control policies. Additionally, an evident increase in nucleation mode particles was observed after dispersion normalization, which poses new challenges for future source apportionment and accountability studies.

Shao Lin et al.

Summary: This study found immediate and lasting effects of particle surface area concentration (PSC) on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and delayed and prolonged impacts of ultrafine particle number concentration (UFPnc). Larger PSC was associated with higher risks of stroke, hypertension, and ischemic heart diseases.

Racial-ethnic exposure disparities to airborne ultrafine particles in the United States

Provat K. Saha et al.

Summary: Studies have shown that racial-ethnic minorities in the United States are exposed to higher levels of ultrafine particles (UFP) than the national average, especially in densely populated metropolitan areas. These disparities are mainly driven by structural factors and cannot be solely explained by differences in income.

National and Intraurban Air Pollution Exposure Disparity Estimates in the United States: Impact of Data-Aggregation Spatial Scale

Lara P. Clark et al.

Summary: This study examined the impact of data aggregation at different spatial scales on air pollution exposure disparities. The results showed that national disparity estimates based on coarser scales often underestimated the disparities compared to estimates based on finer scales, while estimates based on tract and finer scale data were generally consistent for both national and intraurban disparities. The study highlights the importance of considering the spatial scale of data aggregation when analyzing air pollution exposure disparities and suggests that finer scales may provide more accurate estimates.

Associations between socioeconomic status and ultrafine particulate exposure in the school commute: An environmental inequality study for Toronto, Canada

Spencer Elford et al.

Summary: The study explored the exposure patterns of ultrafine particulate matter (UFP) in Toronto, Canada, revealing significant associations with socioeconomic factors such as income, government transfer dependence, immigration status, and education rates. These findings suggest unique patterns of inequality for UFPs compared to other pollutants in the Toronto-based literature, emphasizing the need for further research on UFP dosage from an environmental inequality perspective.

Jiawen Liu et al.

Summary: The study found that although air pollution concentrations decreased from 1990 to 2010, racial/ethnic exposure disparities still existed, with variations across states in the United States. Absolute exposure disparities among racial/ethnic groups were larger than among income categories.

Machine Learning Uncovers Aerosol Size Information From Chemistry and Meteorology to Quantify Potential Cloud-Forming Particles

Arshad Arjunan Nair et al.

Summary: Cloud condensation nuclei play a vital role in aerosol-cloud interactions and contribute to the largest uncertainty in climate change prediction. A machine learning model is proposed to accurately quantify CCN from simulated data, providing a pathway for global climate models to improve accuracy and confidence in assessment of anthropogenic contributions and climate change projections.

PM2.5 polluters disproportionately and systemically affect people of color in the United States

Christopher W. Tessum et al.

Summary: In the United States, racial-ethnic minorities are disproportionately exposed to high levels of ambient fine particulate air pollution (PM2.5), with nearly all major emission categories contributing to the systemic PM2.5 exposure disparity experienced by people of color. By identifying the most inequitable emission source types by state and city, potential opportunities for addressing this persistent environmental inequity are highlighted.

Local- and regional-scale racial and ethnic disparities in air pollution determined by long-term mobile monitoring

Sarah E. Chambliss et al.

Summary: This study reveals that Hispanic and Black populations in urban areas are exposed to higher levels of ultrafine particles, nitrogen dioxide, and nitric oxide (8-30% above average) compared to White populations (9-14% below average). These racial/ethnic disparities in air pollution exposure are influenced by regional concentration gradients and demographic differences among cities and urban districts, as well as localized pollution peaks.
