Objective Our goal was to quantify the short-term effects of particulate matter with
aerodynamic diameter≤ 10 μm (PM10) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) on respiratory health of …

BACKGROUND: The goals of asthma treatment include preventing recurrent exacerbations.
Yet there is no consensus about the terminology for describing or defining “exacerbation” or …

Trees remove air pollution by the interception of particulate matter on plant surfaces and the
absorption of gaseous pollutants through the leaf stomata. However, the magnitude and …

Moderate effects of pollution on health may exert important influences on work. We exploit
exogenous variation in pollution due to the closure of a large refinery in Mexico City to …

We link daily air pollution exposure to measures of contemporaneous health for
communities surrounding the twelve largest airports in California. These airports are some of …

This document presents answers to 24 questions relevant to reviewing European policies on
air pollution and to addressing health aspects of these policies. The answers were …

We investigated the short-term effects of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter<
10μg/m3 (PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and ozone (O3) on pediatric …

This study was to investigate the levels of heavy metals in PM 2.5 and in blood, the
prevalence of respiratory symptoms and asthma, and the related factors to them. Lead and …

Importance Asthma is common and can be exacerbated by air pollution and stress.
Unconventional natural gas development (UNGD) has community and environmental …

There is a bidirectional relationship between climate change and health care. Climate
change threatens public health, and health care contributes to climate change. For example …
