Background: Population studies support the adverse associations of air pollution exposures
with child behavioral functioning and cognitive performance, but few studies have used …

Previous studies on gestational particulate matter (PM) exposure and preterm birth (PTB)
showed inconsistent results, and no study systematically examined the short-term effect of …

Background Investigations on the potential effects of ambient fine particulate matter (PM2. 5)
on large for gestational age (LGA) are limited. Furthermore, no study has explored weekly …

The effect of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) on human early maternal–fetal interface is

Background In-utero exposure to particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5
μm (PM 2.5) is associated with low birth weight and health risks later in life. Pregnant women …

Background Maternal exposure to air pollution has been associated with birth outcomes;
however, few studies examined biologically critical exposure windows shorter than …

The association between ambient fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) and systemic inflammation
in women with early pregnancy is unclear. This study estimated the effects of PM 2.5 …

Background Increasing prevalence of childhood allergic rhinitis (AR) needs a deeper
understanding on the potential adverse effects of early life exposure to air pollution …
