Journal ArticleDOI
Ambient air pollution, birth weight and preterm birth: A systematic review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: While there is a large evidence base which is indicative of associations between CO, NO(2), PM and pregnancy outcome, variation in effects by exposure period and sources of heterogeneity between studies should be further explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute Effects of Air Pollution on Pulmonary Function, Airway Inflammation, and Oxidative Stress in Asthmatic Children
Ling Liu,Raymond Poon,Li Chen,Anna-Maria Frescura,Paolo Montuschi,Giovanni Ciabattoni,Amanda J. Wheeler,Robert Dales +7 more
TL;DR: Air pollution may increase airway oxidative Stress and decrease small airway function of asthmatic children and inhaled corticosteroids may reduce oxidative stress and improveAirway function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outdoor air pollution and emergency department visits for asthma among children and adults: A case-crossover study in northern Alberta, Canada
TL;DR: Exposure to ambient levels of air pollution is an important determinant of ED visits for asthma, particularly among young children and the elderly, according to a time stratified case-crossover design.
Journal ArticleDOI
Associations between outdoor air pollution and emergency department visits for stroke in Edmonton, Canada.
TL;DR: The results suggest it is possible that vehicular traffic, which produces increased levels of NO2 and CO, contributes to an increased incidence of emergency department visits for stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study provides further evidence linking PM2.5 and pregnancy outcomes with preterm birth, small for gestational age, and term birth weight, adjusting for individual covariates and neighborhood socioeconomic status (SES).
