High Blood Pressure and Long-Term Exposure to Indoor Noise and Air Pollution from Road Traffic
BACKGROUND Traffic noise has been associated with prevalence of hypertension, but reports are inconsistent for blood pressure (BP). To ascertain noise effects and to disentangle them from those suspected to be from traffic-related air pollution, it may be essential to estimate people's noise exposure indoors in bedrooms. OBJECTIVES We analyzed associations between long-term exposure to indoor...
متن کاملPrenatal Air Pollution Exposure and Newborn Blood Pressure
BACKGROUND Air pollution exposure has been associated with increased blood pressure in adults. OBJECTIVE We examined associations of antenatal exposure to ambient air pollution with newborn systolic blood pressure (SBP). METHODS We studied 1,131 mother-infant pairs in a Boston, Massachusetts, area pre-birth cohort. We calculated average exposures by trimester and during the 2 to 90 days bef...
متن کاملAir Pollution and Blood Pressure Insights Into the Mechanisms and Mediators of the Effects of Air Pollution Exposure on Blood Pressure and Vascular Function in Healthy Humans
Fine particulate matter air pollution plus ozone impairs vascular function and raises diastolic blood pressure. We aimed to determine the mechanism and air pollutant responsible. The effects of pollution on heart rate variability, blood pressure, biomarkers, and brachial flow-mediated dilatation were determined in 2 randomized, double-blind, crossover studies. In Ann Arbor, 50 subjects were exp...
متن کاملIn-Traffic Air Pollution Exposure and CC16, Blood Coagulation, and Inflammation Markers in Healthy Adults
BACKGROUND Exposure to traffic-related air pollution is a risk factor for cardiovascular events, probably involving mechanisms of inflammation and coagulation. Little is known about effects of the short exposures encountered while participating in traffic. OBJECTIVES The objective of the study was to examine effects of exposure of commuters to air pollution on cardiovascular biomarkers. MET...
متن کاملLong-Term Exposure to Traffic-Related Air Pollution Associated with Blood Pressure and Self-Reported Hypertension in a Danish Cohort
BACKGROUND Short-term exposure to air pollution has been associated with changes in blood pressure (BP) and emergency department visits for hypertension, but little is known about the effects of long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution on BP and hypertension. OBJECTIVES We studied whether long-term exposure to air pollution is associated with BP and hypertension. METHODS In 1993-...
