Interactions among tuberculosis, geographic environment and aerosols: evidence from the Kashgar region of China
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40177082/
Conclusion: The study highlights a distinct interaction between TB, the geographic environment, and aerosols in southern Xinjiang. Poor air quality and elevated TB incidence overlap, particularly in Kashgar. Here, dust from the Taklimakan Desert, trapped by the Kunlun and Tianshan mountains, intensifies PM2.5 and PM10 pollution, further contributing to TB transmission in high-risk areas.

Associations among air pollution, asthma and lung function: a cross-sectional study
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40175422/
.. In a large sample size study of British adults, air pollution was related to increased odds of asthma prevalence. Among the asthmatic population, air pollution was associated with increased odds of current wheezing, hospitalization, and decreased lung function.

The influence of air pollutants on the risk of emergency department presentations of infants with bronchiolitis in an European air quality hotspot
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40171967/
Conclusion: This study indicates that medium-term exposure to higher levels of air pollution increases the risk of the development of bronchiolitis. In particular, the best association results between bronchiolitis admissions and the exposure to the carbonaceous fraction of PM2.5.

The impact of particulate matter exposure on global and domain-specific cognitive function: evidence from the Chinese Square Dancer Study
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40188325/
Conclusion: Ambient PM exposure was significantly associated with performance in global cognitive function and specific cognitive domains among Chinese females. Female populations over 65 years old were more susceptible to the adverse effects of PM2.5 and PM10. Among the four subdomains, the DSST showed the strongest association with PM exposure, even at earlier ages, suggesting that impaired attention may serve as an early warning sign of cognitive decline.

Air pollution increases the risk of frailty: China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS)
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40187242/
..Time-varying Cox proportional hazards models, adjusted for demographic, socioeconomic, and behavioral factors, indicated that each 10 μg/m³ increase in PM1, PM2.5, PM10, and NO2 corresponded to a 7.8 %, 4.2 %, 3.8 %, and 12.9 % higher risk of frailty, respectively, while O3 showed no significant association.

Residential environment and risk of chronic diseases: A prospective study
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40187210/
...Furthermore, air pollution significantly mediated the relationship between RES (residential environment score ) and over 90 % of these chronic diseases. Residential environment with abundant green-blue spaces is linked to lower risks of most chronic diseases, which is partially mediated by diminished air pollutants and largely underestimated.

The association of residential greenness and ambient particulate matter with hearing impairment in Chinese middle-aged and elderly adults: a nationwide cohort study
Conclusions: High residential greenness was associated with a reduced risk of hearing impairment, whereas exposure to PM2.5 and PM10 may increase the risk of hearing impairment. Additionally, residential greenness may modify the relationship between PM exposure and hearing impairment by reducing exposure to PM2.5 and PM10.

Machine learning-based prediction of in-hospital mortality in patients with chronic respiratory disease exacerbations
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40190335/
Conclusion: This study developed a prediction model for in-hospital mortality in patients with chronic respiratory disease and demonstrated a relatively high predictive performance. By incorporating environmental factors, such as air pollution exposure levels, the model with the best performance suggested that 365 days of exposure to air pollution was a key risk factor in mortality prediction.

Combined effects of ambient air pollution and temperature on mortality in Thailand
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40198345/
.. The pattern of combined effects of air pollution and temperature remained robust even when different temperature percentiles were employed, except for that of NO2. Furthermore, the estimated effects of PM10, PM2.5, NO2, and O3 on mortality at high-temperature days were mitigated by high green density

The impact of atmospheric pollutants on the physical health of college students--based on physical examination data of college students from a certain university in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, China Mar 24
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40213428/
Results: Air pollution was significantly associated with a reduction in physical fitness scores. A 1-unit increase in the AQI was linked to a 0.1094-unit decline in fitness scores (p < 0.01). The negative effect was further amplified by PM2.5 (β = -0.2643) and CO (β = -11.5438). Senior students, especially females, showed increased vulnerability to the adverse effects of pollution. Trends in lung capacity mirrored those in physical fitness, with outliers suggesting individual susceptibility. Notably, reduced green coverage was found to mediate 22% of the health impact of pollution (p < 0.05).
