Pathways to gender‐transformative women's health aid: Comparative evidence from five donors
Motivation Gender equality and women's health remain priorities, yet recent fiscal retrenchment and shifting geopolitical agendas have narrowed the space for gender‐transformative programming. Despite growing donor endorsement of gender‐transformative approaches, substantial gaps persist between rhetorical commitment and operational practice, particularly in women's health ODA. This raises a critical policy question: under constrained resources, …
Association between early childhood infections and adolescent chronic diseases: A nationwide cohort analysis
In this nationwide cohort, early childhood respiratory and gastrointestinal infections were consistently associated with chronic conditions such as allergic rhinitis, bronchitis, and gastroenteritis and colitis in adolescents. These findings suggest potential early-life origins of chronic disease and highlight the need for targeted prevention strategies to reduce the long-term burden of chronic illnesses in children
Is air pollution a risk factor for early menopause
Our findings suggest that exposure to ambient air pollution may contribute to the onset of menopause, emphasizing the importance of addressing air quality as a public health priority. This study highlights the need for further research to explore the underlying mechanisms and long-term health impacts of environmental factors associated with early menopause
Infantile allergic diseases: A cohort study prenatal fish intake and mercury exposure context
The result indicates that prenatal white fish intake at least once a week reduces the risk of ADs in infants, especially in the group with high prenatal mercury exposure
Summer temperature and emergency room visits due to urinary tract infection in South Korea: A national time-stratified case-crossover study
Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that higher summer temperatures increase the risk of severe UTIs, and the risk might be different by sub-populations
Causal relationship between particulate matter 2.5 and diabetes: Two sample Mendelian randomization
Backgrounds Many studies have shown particulate matter has emerged as one of the major environmental risk factors for diabetes; however, studies on the causal relationship between particulate matter 2.5 (PM 2.5 ) and diabetes based on genetic approaches are scarce. The study estimated the causal relationship between diabetes and PM 2.5 using two sample mendelian randomization (TSMR). Methods We collected genetic data from European ancestry public…
Prenatal Exposure to Traffic-Related Air Pollution and the DNA Methylation in Cord Blood Cells: Moceh Study
Particulate matter with a diameter of ≤10 μm (PM 10 ) and nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) affect the DNA methylation in the fetus, but epigenetic studies regarding prenatal exposure to air pollution in Asia are lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to assess whether there is any association between the ambient concentrations of PM 10 and NO 2 and CpG methylation in the cord blood DNA by using a Korean birth cohort. The concentrations of the air pollutant…
The Combined Effects of Fine Particulate Matter and Temperature on Preterm Birth in Seoul, 2010–2016
Background: Preterm birth contributes to the morbidity and mortality of newborns and infants. Recent studies have shown that maternal exposure to particulate matter and extreme temperatures results in immune dysfunction, which can induce preterm birth. This study aimed to evaluate the association between fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) exposure, temperature, and preterm birth in Seoul, Republic of Korea. Methods: We used 2010-2016 birth data fr…
Effect of Short-Term Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter and Temperature on Acute Myocardial Infarction in Korea
In conclusion, acute exposure to PM2.5 was significantly associated with AMI morbidity at lag 0 in Seoul, Korea. This increased risk was also observed at low temperatures
Is Short-Term Exposure to PM2.5 Relevant to Childhood Kawasaki Disease
Background: Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute febrile vascular disease of unknown cause that affects the whole body. KD typically occurs in infants under the age of five and is found mainly in East Asian countries. Few studies have reported on the relationship between the pollutant PM 2.5 and KD, and the evidence remains irrelevant or insufficient. Objectives: We investigated the relationship between short-term exposure to PM 2.5 and KD hospitali…
Direct and Indirect Effects of Indoor Particulate Matter on Blood Indicators Related to Anemia
Exposure to indoor particulate matter (PM) is a potential risk factor that increases systemic inflammation and affects erythropoiesis. This study investigated the association between exposure to indoor PM and blood indicators related to anemia (BIRA) in housewives. Indoor PM and blood folate status are important factors in the risk of anemia. This was a housewife cohort study; we recruited 284 housewives in Seoul and Ulsan, Republic of Korea. Ind…
Impact of an Educational Program on Behavioral Changes toward Environmental Health among Laotian Students
This study evaluates the effect of an integrated health care educational program on several behavioral changes related to environmental health among Laotian students. Students in the experimental group received education concerning environmental health-related issues, including air pollution and chemical exposure. Analyses of covariance (ANCOVA) and paired t -tests were conducted for the statistical analysis of the pre- and post-survey scores. Th…
Association between Exposure to Ambient Air Pollution and Rheumatoid Arthritis in Adults
Environmental factors may play roles in the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and some studies have shown that air pollution was associated with the development of autoimmune disease. This study was designed to investigate the effect of air pollutants on the development of adult RA. A nested case-control cohort study was performed using the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort during 2002−2014 in Korea. Air pollution d…
Preventive Effect of Residential Green Space on Infantile Atopic Dermatitis Associated with Prenatal Air Pollution Exposure
Few birth cohort studies have examined the role of traffic-related air pollution (TRAP) in the development of infantile atopic dermatitis (AD), but none have investigated the role of preventive factors such as green spaces. The aim of this study was to investigate whether exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of 10 ) during pregnancy is associated with increased risk of development of AD in 6-month…
International Collaboration on Air Pollution and Pregnancy Outcomes (Icappo)
Reviews find a likely adverse effect of air pollution on perinatal outcomes, but variation of findings hinders the ability to incorporate the research into policy. The International Collaboration on Air Pollution and Pregnancy Outcomes (ICAPPO) was formed to better understand relationships between air pollution and adverse birth outcomes through standardized parallel analyses in datasets from different countries. A planning group with 10 members …
Association of antioxidant vitamins and oxidative stress levels in pregnancy with infant growth during the first year of life
Objective Whereas there are numerous reports in the literature relating the impact of maternal nutritional status on subsequent birth outcome, much less is known about the long-term impact on infant growth after birth. Therefore, we conducted a prospective cohort study to investigate the association of maternal micronutrient status (vitamins A, C and E, folate) and oxidative stress status in pregnancy with infant growth during the first year of l…
