2025 Feb 11 Association between maternal exposure to air pollution and intrapartum fetal distress: a retrospective cohort study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39947445/
..To conclude, we found the long-term impacts of SO2 and PM10 on the incidence of fetal distress based on the exposure level during the last eight weeks of pregnancy.

2025 Feb 15 Associations of MAFLD subtypes and air pollutants with multi-system morbidity and all-cause mortality: A prospective cohort study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39955868/
Conclusions: This study highlights the distinct impacts of MAFLD subtypes on multi-system morbidity and all-cause mortality, underscoring the critical need for targeted prevention and treatment strategies, particularly for individuals with MAFLD-diabetes. Our findings reveal significant additive and synergistic effects of air pollution exposure on the risks of cirrhosis, CAD, and CKD among MAFLD patients.

2025 Jan 31 Short-term effects of air pollution on the infectious disease spectrum in Shanghai, China: a time-series analysis from 2013 to 2019 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39957988/
Conclusion: These findings suggest a potential link between ambient air pollution exposure and the risk of infectious diseases, highlighting the urgent need for a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between air pollution and notifiable infectious diseases, as well as an in-depth evaluation of disparities across the disease spectrum.

2025 Feb 21 Association between air pollution and cardiovascular disease risk in middle-aged and elderly individuals with diabetes: inflammatory lipid ratio accelerate this progression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39980049/
Conclusion: Among middle-aged and older adults with diabetes, exposure to air pollution is associated with an increased risk of CVD, and ILR intensifies this process. Therefore, implementing effective public health interventions to reduce air pollution exposure in diabetic populations is essential.

2025 Feb What is the relationship between exposure to environmental pollutants and severe mental disorders? A systematic review on shared biological pathways https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39803412/
..Studies carried out with humans, which are mainly focused on measuring the impact of particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) exposure on mental health, showed an increased risk of depression or psychotic relapses through the inflammation and oxidative stress pathways, or through the alteration of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis
Conclusions: Exposure to PM2.5, PM10, and SO2 during pregnancy can lead to an elevated risk of childhood asthma. Reducing or avoiding exposure to pollutants during pregnancy can reduce the incidence of childhood asthma. We should protect the environment and reduce the harm of environmental pollution to health.
..This study offers a novel perspective by identifying diabetes as a key intermediary in the association between PM2.5 exposure and cancer risk, providing evidence that diabetes plays a significant mediating role in air pollutant-related cancer development.

2025 Feb 14 Ambient air pollution and the risk of cancer: Evidence from global cohort studies and epigenetic-related causal inference https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40010210/
..In conclusion, this study demonstrates that air pollution has a significant impact on cancer incidence, provides strong evidence for an epigenetic causal link between the two, and provides new insights into the molecular mechanisms by which air pollution affects cancer development.
Conclusion: Ambient air pollution, particularly PM2.5, may contribute to the increased risks of neurodegenerative diseases including AD and PD.

2025 Feb 22 Antibiotics in ambient fine particulate matter from two metropolitan cities in China: Characterization, source apportionment, and health risk assessment https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40015176/
..Most antibiotics showed a positive correlation with gaseous pollutants and a negative correlation with meteorological factors. PM2.5, PM10, and CO had the highest influence.

2025 Feb 26 Associations of Wildfire-Derived Particulate Matter with Hospitalization, Emergency Department Visits and Mortality: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40020860/
Current studies provide evidence of an increased risk of hospitalization and ED visits for respiratory diseases and all-cause mortality due to wildfire PM2.5 and PM10 exposures worldwide.
Results: PM2.5, PM10, and SO2 was significantly associated with elevated number of schizophrenia hospitalization. We observed the largest single-day effects of PM2.5 at lag 17 day,..

2025 Mar 11 Independent and combined effects of long-term air pollution exposure and genetic predisposition on COVID-19 severity: A population-based cohort study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40030018/
..Long-term exposure to air pollutants was significantly associated with an increased risk of COVID-19-related outcomes in the COVID-19 naive cohort.
..Notably, significant interactions were found between PM2.5/PM10 and genetic susceptibility in COVID-19 death. In COVID-19 infection cohort, participants with both high genetic risk and high air pollutants exposure had 1.86- to 1.97-fold and 1.91- to 2.14-fold higher risk of COVID-19
