Risks of N95 Face Mask Use in Subjects With COPD.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that subjects with COPD who had modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale scores ≥ 3 or FEV1 < 30% predicted wear N95s only with care, and that breathing frequency, blood oxygen saturation, and exhaled carbon dioxide levels showed significant differences before and after N95 use.

Seasonal variability of PM 2.5 composition and sources in the Klang Valley urban-industrial environment

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the fine particulate matter (PM2.5) variability in the Klang Valley urban-industrial environment, covering all four seasons (distinguished by the wind flow patterns) including haze events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis of adverse health effects due to air pollution in Chinese populations

TL;DR: Evidence on short-term effects of air pollution is consistent and sufficient for health impact assessment but that on long- term effects is still insufficient, and annual PM10 and NO2 concentrations were inversely associated with RR of mortality.

Outlook for clean air in the context of sustainable development goals

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined integrated policies to put the world on track towards three interlinked goals of achieving universal energy access, limiting climate change and reducing air pollution, and concluded that these goals can be attained simultaneously with substantial benefits.
