2025 Jun 2 Around-the-clock noise exposure induces hippocampus apoptosis and subsequent cognitive impairment via the PI3K/SGK1/Foxo3 signaling pathway https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40457271/
Conclusions: These findings suggest that around-the-clock noise exposure induces hippocampal neuronal apoptosis, thus exacerbating cognitive impairment. This elucidates the potential role of the PI3K/SGK1/Foxo3 pathway in noise-induced neuronal damage.

2025 May 29 Associations of greenhouse gases, air pollutants and dynamics of scrub typhus incidence in China: a nationwide time-series study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40442614/
Conclusions: We found that most greenhouse gases and air pollutants increase the risk of contracting scrub typhus, mainly driven by CH4, NOx, and NMVOC. Among these, the primary high-level pollutants have long-term lag effects during the epidemic period. The correlation between environmental factors and scrub typhus incidence varies significantly across different age groups and risk periods. Among them, middle-aged and young individuals are more susceptible to the effects of exposure to mixed air pollutants...
In recent years, a growing number of studies have shown an association between air pollution and the development of vasculitis...

2025 May 30 Meteorological factors, air pollution, and hospitalization rates of intestinal diseases https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40441228/
..Stratified analyses found that young people and men were susceptible populations, there was an association between NO2 and the risk of hospitalization for noninfectious enteritis, and there was an association between PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and O3 and intestinal obstruction. There is a significant correlation between the level of air pollutants and intestinal diseases, and there is an interaction between meteorological factors and atmospheric pollution on intestinal diseases.

2025 Jun 3 Sex/gender in the association between ambient air pollution and cardiovascular mortality: Systematic review and meta-analysis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40466332/
Conclusion: Low concentrations of air pollution significantly impacted respiratory outpatient visits in Fuzhou, especially in children. Despite relatively good air quality, air pollution in low-pollution areas poses a public health risk, highlighting the need for targeted pollution control policies.

2025 Jun 6 Independent and combined associations of ambient air pollutants exposure with mortality: a case-crossover study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40476287/
Results: For per 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5, O3-8h, SO2, and NO2 concentrations, the OR (95% CI) of non-accidental deaths increased by a maximum of 1.009 (1.002-1.017), 1.017 (1.008-1.027), 1.051 (1.015-1.089), and 1.027 (1.010-1.045), respectively. Both majority of air pollutants (excluding CO) were strongly associated with elevated respiratory death risk, but only O3-8h, and SO2 were positively associated with cardiovascular death at lag-2 day. There was a significant positive association between exposure to mixtures of air pollutants and both non-accidental and respiratory deaths, with PM2.5 and SO2 identified as major contributors, respectively. Furthermore, the detrimental effects of O3-8h significantly intensify as temperatures rise.
Conclusions: This study provides evidence of a causal link between long-term exposure to NO₂ and PM10 and breast cancer risk, especially for hormone receptor subtypes. However, the effects of PM2.5 and NOx on breast cancer risk were not significant, and air pollution exposure did not appear to impact survival. Further research is needed to elucidate the specific biological mechanisms and to extend the analysis to non-European populations.

Conclusion: In 2019, Türkiye faced persistent air pollution, with PM2.5 levels exceeding WHO's 2021 limits across all provinces and stations. Türkiye lacks specific PM2.5 limits legislation. Our findings provide a fresh insight into the literature, highlighting policy reform needs. However, data deficiencies hindered analysis in some provinces, affecting nearly 20% of the population aged 30 and above and 31% of the total surface area. Therefore, the actual burden of air pollution-related deaths may be higher than our estimates, underscoring the need to address these challenges urgently.
Air pollution is an increasing public health concern, with evidence indicating that poor air quality adversely affects health through various pathways. However, its impact on mental health remains underexplored despite indications of pollutant-induced distress. ..
