Background The relationship between ambient air pollution exposure and mortality of cardiovascular cerebrovascular diseases in human is controversial, there little information about how exposures to contribution the among Chinese. aim present study was examine whether ambient-air increases risk for disease. Methodology/Principal Findings We conducted a retrospective cohort humans association compound-air pollutants [particulate matter <10 µm aerodynamic diameter (PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2)...

&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Background:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; In China, both the levels and patterns of outdoor air pollution have altered dramatically with rapid economic development urbanization over past two decades. However, few studies investigated association respiratory mortality, especially in high range. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Objective:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; We conducted a retrospective cohort study 9,941 residents aged ≥35 years old Shenyang, to examine between pollutants [particulate matter &lt;10...

Evidence on the associations between long-term exposure to multiple air pollutants and cardiopulmonary mortality is limited, especially for developing regions with higher pollutant levels. We aimed characterise individual joint (multi-pollutant) of mortality, identify that primarily contributes risk.

Evidence is still limited for the role of long-term PM2.5 exposure in cerebrovascular diseases among residents high pollution regions. The study aimed to investigate effects on stroke mortality, and further explore effect modification temperature variation PM2.5-mortality association northern China. Based a cohort data with an average follow-up 9.8 years 38,435 urban adults, high-resolution estimates derived from satellite-based model were assigned each participant. A Cox regression...

Abstract Background Several studies have suggested adverse effects of particulate matter (PM) exposure on male reproductive health; few investigated the association between PM and semen quality in a large population fertile men. Methods We evaluated 14 parameters 1554 men Nanjing from 2014 to 2016. Individual particular ≤10 μm diameter (PM 10 ) ≤ 2.5 during key periods sperm development (0-90, 0-9, 10-14, 15-69, 70-90 days before collection) were estimated by inverse distance weighting...

Several literatures have examined the risk of chronic respiratory diseases in association with short-term ambient PM2.5 exposure China. However, little evidence has impacts on morbidity cohorts from high pollution countries. Our study aims to investigate associations. Based a retrospective cohort among adults northern China, Cox regression model time-varying and concentration-response (C-R) curve were performed access relationships between incidence long-term during mean follow-up time 9.8...

Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a classic environmental endocrine disruptor with carcinogenic risk. Epidemiological studies have shown that PFASs contamination is associated breast cancer development, but the mechanism remains largely unknown. This study first obtained complex biological information about PFASs-induced through comparative toxicogenomics database (CTD). The Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) network, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Gene Ontology (GO)...

Particulate matter with diameters ≤2.5 μm (PM2.5) has been identified as a significant air pollutant contributing to premature mortality. Nevertheless, the specific compositions within PM2.5 that play most crucial role remain unclear, especially in areas high pollution concentrations. This study aims investigate individual and joint mortality risks associated inorganic chemical identify primary contributors. In 1998, we conducted prospective cohort four northern Chinese cities (Tianjin,...
