Objective to summarize the main updated evidence about the health effects of air pollution
and to focus on Italian epidemiological experiences on the respiratory effects. Results the …

Background Ambient air pollution exposure has been associated with higher mortality risk in
numerous studies. We assessed potential variability in the magnitude of this association for …

Health impacts of atmospheric pollution is an important issue in urban environments. Its
magnitude depends on population exposure which have been frequently estimated by …

Ambient PM 2.5 pollution is a leading environmental health risk factor worldwide. The spatial
resolution of PM 2.5 concentrations and population strongly impacts PM 2.5-related health …

Land-use regression models (LUR) were developed to estimate the spatial patterns and
seasonal variability of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter≤ 2.5 mm and≤ 10 mm …

This retrospective cohort study examined associations of autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
with prenatal exposure to major fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) components estimated using …

Evidence linking diminished ovarian reserve, a significant cause of female infertility, and
exposure to particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters≤ 2.5 μm (PM 2.5) or O 3 …

Health impact assessments (HIA) and cost-benefit analyses (CBA) play a major role in the
ongoing revision of the European Union Ambient Air Quality Directive (EU AAQD). HIAs …

Objectives We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis on long-term exposure to
nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) and ozone (O 3) with mortality, to expand evidence that informed …
