Environmental Pollutants (Pollutants, Environmental)

01/01/1999 - "Better asthma management, with improved anti-inflammatory medications, more careful monitoring by patients and health care providers, and reasonable efforts to reduce pollutant and aeroallergen exposures, offers the best hope to reduce asthma morbidity in the new century."
01/01/2005 - "Avoidance of these pollutants may not be beneficial in preventing asthma in this age group."
01/01/2020 - "The aim of this review is to summarize the current knowledge on the effect of various outdoor and indoor pollutants on asthma outcomes, their burden on its management, as well as to highlight the measures that could result in improved asthma outcomes. "
07/11/2014 - "Improved asthma action plans for Houston individuals should warn of these pollutants, their trends, correlation and cumulative effects. "
01/01/2013 - "If confirmed, the results may suggest that exposure to PAH, common ambient urban pollutants, affects β 2AR function, although the impact on the efficacy of β 2AR agonist drugs used in treating asthma remains uncertain. "

01/01/2021 - "Consequently, the results of current studies suggest that due to COVID-19 pandemic national LD restriction on anthropogenic activities, both coarse and fine pollutants have significantly reduced and air quality greatly improved during LD and Post-LD as compared to pre-LD period in all selected cities of India."
04/01/2021 - "We found strong positive correlation of COVID-19 mortality with PM10 (R2 = 0.145; r = 0.38) and AQI (R2 = 0.17; r = 0.412) pollutant indicators that significantly improved next time point. "
01/01/2022 - "Lockdown resulted from COVID-19 has shown decline trends in pollutant concentration resulting in improved air quality in the study area. "
10/01/2022 - "Transport restrictions introduced to mitigate against COVID-19 led to lower pollutant levels and improved air quality. "
04/27/2022 - "The WRF-Chem simulations of persistent heavy PM pollution episodes from 20 January to 14 February 2020, in the Guanzhong Basin (GZB), northwest China, reveal that large-scale emission reduction of primary pollutants has not substantially improved the air quality during the COVID-19 lockdown period. "

02/25/2023 - "Appropriate clearance of pathogens and response to pollutants is required to prevent overwhelming infection, while preventing tissue damage and maintaining efficient gas exchange. "
09/15/2023 - "The pollutant removal effect and infection risk mitigation of SV in the ward were largely improved by 75% and 59% compared with DV and DWV, respectively. "
05/01/1995 - "Mucosal surfaces represent a first-line-of-defense against infections, and pollutants or organisms entrapped in respiratory secretions are cleared by mucociliary transport. "
09/15/2023 - "Studies have considered the effect of ventilation openings (inlets/outlets) or infected source locations on the airflow distribution, pollutant removal, and infection risk mitigation. "
04/01/2023 - "The results of this study provide an important basic theoretical guidance for the optimization of ventilation system design and operation strategies aimed at reducing multi-pollutant integrated health exposure and airborne particle infection (such as SARS-CoV-2) risks."

12/01/2002 - "Ultimately, our knowledge of haplotype patterns, rather than single variant sites, of perhaps several hundred genes will likely be helpful in finding associations between genotype and any multiplex phenotype (e.g., complex diseases including cancer, and/or toxicity of pharmaceutical agents or environmental pollutants)."
10/01/2023 - "From a health perspective, existing studies suggest that airborne MPs are priority pollutant vectors, that may penetrate deep into the body through inhalation leading to adverse health impacts such as neurotoxicity, cancer, respiratory problems, cytotoxicity, and many more. "
08/24/2023 - "In the present study, we used hazard index and cancer risk methods to estimate the public health risk of the pollutants exposed to street dust in Ankara. "
01/01/2023 - "Out of 22,658 studies, 312 SR/MAs were included in evidence mapping, and the effects of pollutants on cancer and congenital malformations were new research hotspots. "
01/01/2023 - "We conducted a study in the field with two flatfish species, European flounder (Platichthys flesus L.) and common dab (Limanda limanda L.) with overlapping distribution and similar ecological niche, to investigate if the link between oncogenic pollutants and cancer described in ecotoxicological literature could be mediated by oxidative DNA damage. "

10/01/2019 - "Considering the chronic skin exposure to pollution in urban areas, we sought to determine if SIG-1273 could provide additional protection against skin aging by inhibiting pollutant-induced cytotoxicity and inflammation. "
10/26/2023 - "However, research gaps still exist, including gaps regarding the combined toxicity of MNPs and co-pollutants, toxicological studies in human models, advanced methodologies for toxicity analysis, bioaccumulation studies, inflammation and immunological responses, dose-response relationships of MNPs, and the effect of different physiochemical characteristics of MNPs. "
05/01/2020 - "Findings of our study suggest that almost all markers of inflammation are positively correlated with traffic pollutants and this condition might raise the risk of systemic diseases."
12/01/2016 - "Epidemiological and toxicological studies have demonstrated exposure to these pollutants is associated with a variety of adverse health effects, including cardiovascular and respiratory disease, in which inflammation is believed to be a common and essential factor. "
02/01/2011 - "Data from this small study are consistent with the role of environmental pollutants on lung function and inflammation."
