Ambient Air Pollution and the Risk of Stillbirth [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Epidemiology, 2012
The purpose of the present study was to examine the risk of stillbirth associated with ambient air pollution during pregnancy. Using live birth and fetal death data from New Jersey from 1998 to 2004, the authors assigned daily concentrations of air pollution to each birth or fetal death.

Applying machine learning to construct braking emission model for real-world road driving

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2022
Brake emissions from vehicles are increasing as the number of vehicles increases. However, current research on brake emissions, particularly the intensity and characteristics of emissions under real road conditions, is significantly inadequate compared ...

Estimating the exposure-response relationships between particulate matter and mortality within the APHEA multicity project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Several studies have reported significant health effects of air pollution even at low levels of air pollutants, but in most of theses studies linear nonthreshold relations were assumed.

Ambient air pollution and semen quality [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Research, 2018
Ambient air pollution is associated with systemic increases in oxidative stress, to which sperm are particularly sensitive. Although decrements in semen quality represent a key mechanism for impaired fecundability, prior research has not established a clear association between air pollution and semen quality.

Ambient air pollution and endocrinologic disorders in childhood [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2021
Ambient air pollution has been proposed as an important environmental risk factor that increases global mortality and morbidity. Over the past decade, several human and animal studies have reported an association between exposure to air pollution and altered metabolic and endocrine systems in children.

Air pollution modelling for birth cohorts: a time-space regression model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To investigate air pollution effects during pregnancy or in the first weeks of life, models are needed that capture both the spatial and temporal variability of air pollution exposures.; We developed a time-space exposure model for ambient NO2 ...

Exercise and outdoor ambient air pollution [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Sports Medicine, 2001
Objectives—To establish by literature survey: (a) levels at which air pollutants are considered damaging to human health and to exercisers in particular; (b) the current ambient levels experienced in the United Kingdom; (c) whether athletes are especially at risk.Methods—Six major urban air pollutants were examined: carbon monoxide (CO); nitrogen ...

The Impact of Anthropogenic VOC Emissions on Atmospheric Pollution: A Case Study of a Typical Industrialized Area in China

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are the main precursors of pollution from ground ozone (O3) and PM2.5, which cause the deterioration of urban air quality.

Size Distribution of Ambient Particulate Matter and Its Constituent Chemical Species Involving Saccharides During Early Summer in a Chinese Megacity

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
The ambient particulate matter (PM) pollution adversely influences the human health and natural environment. The size distribution of ambient PM determines the physiochemical and optical properties of ambient aerosol, whereas it reflects the variability ...

Ambient Air Pollution and Socioeconomic Status in China

open access: yesEnvironmental Health Perspectives, 2021
Air pollution disparities by socioeconomic status (SES) are well documented for the United States, with most literature indicating an inverse relationship (i.e., higher concentrations for lower-SES populations). Few studies exist for China, a country accounting for 26% of global premature deaths from ambient air pollution.Our objective was to test the ...
