Does Particulate Matter Modify the Association between Temperature and Cardiorespiratory Diseases?
BACKGROUND A number of studies have shown that both temperature and air pollution are associated with health outcomes. In assessing air pollution effects, temperature is usually considered a confounder. However, only a few recent studies considered air pollution as confounders while assessing temperature effects. Few studies are available on whether or not air pollution modifies the temperature...
متن کاملDoes Cardiorespiratory Fitness Modify the Association between Birth Weight and Insulin Resistance in Adult Life?
OBJECTIVE Lower birth weight is associated with higher insulin resistance in later life. The aim of this study was to determine whether cardiorespiratory fitness modifies the association of birth weight with insulin resistance in adults. METHODS The subjects were 379 Japanese individuals (137 males, 242 females) aged 20-64 years born after 1943. Insulin resistance was assessed using a homeost...
متن کاملAssociation of Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter and Risk Factors of Non-Communicable Diseases in Children and Adolescents
Background: Risk factors of non-communicable disease (NCD) origin from early life, and exposure to environmental pollutant may be a predisposing factor. This study aimed to investigate the association of air quality index (AQI) and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) with some NCD risk factors in a sample of Iranian children and adolescents. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was con...
متن کاملThe role of particulate size and chemistry in the association between summertime ambient air pollution and hospitalization for cardiorespiratory diseases.
In order to address the role that the ambient air pollution mix, comprised of gaseous pollutants and various physical and chemical measures of particulate matter, plays in exacerbating cardiorespiratory disease, daily measures of fine and coarse particulate mass, aerosol chemistry (sulfates and acidity), and gaseous pollution (ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and carbon monoxide) were c...
