Airborne particulate matter 10 (PM10) induces lung inflammation. However, interventions remain limited. We evaluated the protective effects of Chrysanthemum zawadskii var. latilobum (CZL) against PM10-induced lung injury...

Abstract Particulate matter (PM) poses a significant public health concern, particularly in industrialized communities. While modern sophisticated air monitors like those deployed by the United States Environmental Prote...

Given the substantial contribution of coal-fired power generation to environmental pollution in South Korea, evaluating the effectiveness of policies in the electric power sector is essential. The South Korean government...

Abstract Background Early-life environmental exposures may influence infant neurodevelopment. We examined associations between perinatal air pollution, green space exposure, and milestone attainment during the first two ...

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of roadside green infrastructure in reducing particulate matter-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PM-bound PAHs) in urban soils and to assess the associated human heal...

Abstract Purpose This study investigated particulate concentrations and respiratory biomarkers among chemical storekeepers in Ogbete Market, Enugu Nigeria to evaluate early indicators of airway injury relevant to occupat...

With the increasingly stringent environmental regulations on road traffic, the emission standards for particulate matter from internal combustion engines have risen significantly. Consequently, the implementation of part...

Limited studies focused on acute effects of PM2.5 components and sources exposure on blood pressure and the potential mediating role of DNA methylation. We conducted a repeated-measurement study design with 4 visits invo...

ABSTRACT Adopting conservationist soil use and management practices, such as the no-tillage system and cover crops associated with organic agriculture, can improve the quality of fragile soils. This study aimed to evalua...

BackgroundMaternal exposure to air pollutants are associated with congenital heart defects (CHDs), yet fundamental questions remain unclear: which pollutant matters most, which exposure window is most critical, and wheth...

Abstract Automobile cabin air filter-deposited particulate matter represents an underappreciated exposure source, yet the differential toxicity between filter sides and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we syst...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Infectious epiglottitis is inflammation of epiglottis and surrounding structures and may be life‐threatening without treatment. Air pollution is a critical risk factor for human health. Thi...

BackgroundGestational weight gain is closely related to maternal and infant health outcomes. Pregnant women are simultaneously exposed to four metals—lithium (Li), vanadium (V), uranium (U), and bismuth (Bi)—through ...

Prenatal exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has been associated to childhood atopic dermatitis (AD), but the critical exposure window and the role of maternal inflammatory pathways remain unclear. We analyzed 40...

The results of whole-body exposure to airborne particulate matter <10 µm on the cornea of BALB/c mice, how their natural resistance to Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) keratitis is impacted, and whether plastoquinonyl-d...

Incense and candles are commonly utilized for relaxation, deodorization, aesthetics, and religious observance. Both are used ubiquitously and viewed innocuously. However, both modalities release a multitude of compounds,...

Environmental factors such as air pollution, weather events, and ambient toxins are major contributors to human disease, with disproportionate impacts on vulnerable populations. In Puerto Rico, chronic exposure to air po...

Abstract Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a significant air pollutant in the Indo Gangetic Basin (IGB), where levels frequently exceed national and WHO air quality standards. Ground observations from 183 CPCB automatic...

Abstract Background Ethnic disparities in ischemic stroke are substantial and differences in exposure to air pollution have been demonstrated as well. However, the role of air pollution in mediating ethnic disparities in...

Soil is a living, finite resource that shapes chemical fate, microbial ecology, nutrient supply, and climate regulation, yet environmental science and policy often treat it as an inert substrate. Approximately one-third ...

In this work, a novel system for managing air pollution produced during steam sterilization is presented. Steam sterilization technique is used to manage infectious medical waste into municipal waste under the Ministeria...

Introduction Hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is influenced by meteorological and air pollution factors. However, few studies have evaluated their joint and interactive effects under real-world multi-exposure conditio...

Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is responsible for millions of deaths globally each year. We evaluated the impact of the human gut probiotic strain Lactobacillus reuteri MLR1103 on PM2.5-induced lung inflammation and inj...

Objective: To evaluate the long-term mineralizing effects of an experimental ion-releasing, short fiber-reinforced flowable composite (SFC-active) applied to human teeth with molar–incisor hypomineralization (MIH). M...
