National environmental health risk assessment of short-term air pollution effects on cardiovascular disease in Australia
Background Although there is substantial evidence linking ambient air pollution to increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, the specific effects of different air pollutants in Australia remain unclear, and quality-assessed evidence is lacking. We aimed to examine the short-term effects of air pollution exposure on the risk of CVD-related health outcomes in Australia and evaluate the quality of available evidence to enable tailored actions. Me…
Ambient PM2.5 and O3 and their combined effects on the onset of acute cardiovascular events
PM 2.5 and O 3 are risk factors for ACE onset, particularly on the day of onset and the day before. Moreover, we found no significant interaction of PM 2.5 and O 3 on ACE onset. Reducing PM 2.5 and O 3 concentrations and avoiding exposure to high levels of these pollutants in the early phase may mitigate ACE onset. Targeted policies aimed at reducing PM 2.5 and O 3 pollution should be developed to mitigate their adverse health effects among high-…
Nonlinear and potential driving impacts of meteorological and air pollution factors on influenza-like illness in Jinan, China
This study demonstrated that both the DLNM and EDM methods consistently revealed the complex and nonlinear effects of specific environmental factors on influenza infection. Specifically, TCN > 5 °C, AP > 1100 hPa, and SO 2 > 60 [Formula: see text]g/m 3 were associated with increased risk of influenza infection. Children aged 0-4 years and individuals aged 5-59 years exhibit different susceptibility patterns to environmental factors. These finding…
Estimating non-optimal temperature-attributable burden of Salmonella and Campylobacter infections under various climate change, population, and adaptation scenarios in Australia

Mortality attributable to ambient PM2.5 pollution in China's aging population
As China's population is aging rapidly, understanding the shifts in PM 2.5 attributable mortality within this context is crucial for informing future clean air policies. We adopted a Fusion relative risk model, combined with 100 m resolution age structure data, to better estimate China's age- and cause-specific mortality attributable to PM 2.5 over 2010–2019, and projected attributable mortality in 2030 and 2060 at a 0.1° spatial resolution under…
