Long-term Air Pollution Exposure, Genome-wide DNA Methylation and Lung Function in the LifeLines Cohort Study.
BACKGROUND Long-term air pollution exposure is negatively associated with lung function, yet the mechanisms underlying this association are not fully clear. Differential DNA methylation may explain this association. OBJECTIVES Our main aim was to study the association between long-term air pollution exposure and DNA methylation. METHODS We performed a genome-wide methylation study using rob...
متن کاملAdult lung function and long-term air pollution exposure. ESCAPE: a multicentre cohort study and meta-analysis
The chronic impact of ambient air pollutants on lung function in adults is not fully understood. The objective of this study was to investigate the association of long-term exposure to ambient air pollution with lung function in adult participants from five cohorts in the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE). Residential exposure to nitrogen oxides (NO₂, NOx) and particu...
متن کاملLong-term exposure to air pollution and asthma hospitalisations in older adults: a cohort study.
BACKGROUND Exposure to air pollution in early life contributes to the burden of childhood asthma, but it is not clear whether long-term exposure to air pollution can lead to asthma onset or progression in adulthood. OBJECTIVES The authors studied the effect of exposure to traffic-related air pollution over 35 years on the risk for asthma hospitalisation in older people. METHODS 57 053 parti...
متن کاملEffects of Long-Term Exposure to Traffic-Related Air Pollution on Lung Function in Children
Lung function in early life has been shown to be an important predictor for peak lung function in adults and later decline. Reduced lung function per se is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. With this review, we aim to summarize the current epidemiological evidence on the effect of traffic-related air pollution on lung function in children and adolescents. We focus in particular...
متن کاملStroke and long-term exposure to outdoor air pollution from nitrogen dioxide: a cohort study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Years of exposure to tobacco smoke substantially increase the risk for stroke. Whether long-term exposure to outdoor air pollution can lead to stroke is not yet established. We examined the association between long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution and incident and fatal stroke in a prospective cohort study. METHODS We followed 57,053 participants of the Da...
