Ambient air pollution may play a role in childhood obesity development, but evidence is scarce, and the modifying role of socioeconomic status (SES) is unclear. We aimed to examine the association between exposure to air pollution during early childhood and subsequent risk of developing overweight ...
Air pollution, another major public health concern, has been reported to affect sleep and has similar consequences to other diseases, such as cardiopulmonary health [8], diabetes [9], and cancer [10]. In particular, emerging research has recently focused on the effects of outdoor air pollution...
The evidence on the health and economic impacts of air pollution with schizophrenia is scarce, especially in developing countries. In this study, we aimed to systemically examine the short-term effects of PM2.5 (particulate matter ≤ 2.5 μm in diameter), PM10 (≤ 10 μm in diameter)...
Since qualitative research methods are well suited for this aim, the central objective of this study is to present a review of qualitative research articles in the field of environmental epidemiology that investigate health risk perceptions of ambient air pollution since the 2000s. Methods:We ...
It is significant to evaluate the air quality scientifically for the management of air pollution. As an air quality comprehensive evaluation problem, its uncertainty can be effectively addressed by the Dempster–Shafer (D–S) evidence theory. However, there is not enough research on air quality com...
Human health is closely related to his environment. The influence of exposure to air pollutants on human health and well-being has been an interesting subject and gained much volume of research over the last 50 years. In general, polluted air is considered one of the major factors leading to...
Exposure to ambient air pollution, such as car exhaust, has been linked to a higher risk of developing dementia; genetics can heighten the risk. Credit: IQAir Research reveals a link between environmental air pollution and certain dementia characteristics, like impaired verbal fluency. Possession of...
This cohort study examines the association between ambient air pollution and infant birth weight by maternal individual- and neighborhood-level stressors.

Participants of both studies were admitted to the Clinical Research Center at the University of Rochester the day before exposure and stayed overnight, to reduce confounding effects of ambient air pollution exposures. The UPCON participants were exposed twice while at rest for two hours: either to...
