Conclusion: Short-term exposure to elevated PM2.5 and PM10 concentrations was linked to shortened PT [thromboplastin time] and enhanced vWF [Willebrand factor] function in healthy individuals. Exploring the impact of these changes on clinically relevant thrombosis is crucial. Additional studies on the pathogenesis of pollution-related thrombosis are warranted for maintaining good health.
2024 Oct Air Pollution and Rheumatoid Arthritis Risk and Progression: Implications for the Mucosal Origins Hypothesis and Climate Change for RA Pathogenesis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39093508/
..
Relatively few studies investigated air pollution and RA disease activity or other outcomes. These results suggest an important role of air pollution for seropositive RA development and suggest that climate change could be a driver in increasing RA incidence as air pollution increases.
Conclusion: This study identified key genes, signaling pathways, and cellular responses in mouse lung affected by road dust exposure. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the transcriptional and cellular responses induced by subacute exposure to the PM in road dust.

2024 Oct Exposure to Air Pollutants and Myocardial Infarction Incidence: A UK Biobank Study Exploring Gene-Environment Interaction https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39388260/
Results: Among 456,354 participants, 9,114 incident MI events were observed during a median follow-up of 12.08 y. Chronic exposure to air pollutants was linked with an increased risk of MI occurrence

2024 Oct 15 Air pollution's numerical, spatial, and temporal heterogeneous impacts on childhood hand, foot and mouth disease: a multi-model county-level study from China https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39407189/
Results: Our findings highlighted the relatively higher stationary contributions of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone (O3) to HFMD incidence across Sichuan-Chongqing counties. We further uncovered heterogeneous impacts of PM2.5 and O3 from three nonstationary perspectives...
Air pollution is a critical global issue with extensive implications beyond respiratory health, significantly affecting neurological and psychiatric disorders...
Conclusion: Air pollutant PM2.5 could potentially exacerbate psoriasis flare-ups by compromising the immune barrier, suggesting a plausible mechanism linked to the onset of this condition.

2024 Oct 15 Association Between Ambient Air Pollution and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Children: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39544605/
..Nonetheless, the evidence suggests that postnatal exposure to ambient air pollutants, particularly PM2.5, PM10, and NO2, is significantly associated with an increased risk of ADHD in children. These results underscore the importance of conducting further large-scale, high-quality studies to explore these associations in greater depth and to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the link between air pollution and ADHD.

Conclusions: Various time series and neural network models effectively predict the incidence and mortality rates of HIV/AIDS. Additionally, multiple mixed exposure analyses provide further evidence of significant associations between exposure to air pollution mixtures and HIV/AIDS incidence and mortality rates, with PM2.5 and PM10 being the primary drivers.
