TLDR
According to the results, hazardous air pollutants induce destructive effects on the lung and result in COPD, Thus, COPD is a critical public health issue in Iran and the world and policies to decrease pollutant emissions should be used.Abstract:
Air pollution exposure is one of the main risk factors for respiratory system diseases, including airway diseases, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), and lung cancer Few studies have been done concerning Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) and its relationship with air pollution Particulate Matter (PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ozone (O3), Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs), and Heavy Metals (HM) are the most important air pollutants found to exert harmful effects on the human and environment This review aimed to study the health effects of air pollution on respiratory systems, especially COPD A narrative review of the literature was done from 1978 to 2020 in various databases, including Google Scholar, Science Direct, Web of Science, Springer, PubMed, NCBI, and BMJ The results indicated that air pollution exposure could increase respiratory diseases, especially COPD According to the results, COPD is caused by poor airflow and long-term breathing problems due to disrupted lung tissue Based on the results, hazardous air pollutants induce destructive effects on the lung and result in COPD Thus, COPD is a critical public health issue in Iran and the world To decrease the rate of COPD attributed to air pollutants, we should use policies to decrease pollutant emissionsread more

Secondary Organic Aerosol Formation from Anthropogenic Air Pollution: Rapid and Higher than Expected
Jose L. Jimenez,Rainer Volkamer,F. M. San Martini,Katja Dzepina,Qi Zhang,Ingrid M. Ulbrich,D. Salcedo,D. R. Worsnop,Luisa T. Molina +8 more
TL;DR: This paper showed that reactive anthropogenic VOCs (AVOCs) produce much larger amounts of SOA than these models predict, even shortly after sunrise, and a significant fraction of the excess SOA is formed from first-generation AVOC oxidation products.

Numerical study of nano and micro pollutant particle transport and deposition in realistic human lung airways
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the transportation and deposition of three types of pollutant particles: traffic, smoke and dust, with various sizes ranging from nano-to micro-scales in the mouth-throat and tracheobronchial lung airways of a human lung using computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

TL;DR: It is recommended that spirometry is required for the clinical diagnosis of COPD to avoid misdiagnosis and to ensure proper evaluation of severity of airflow limitation.

TL;DR: The assessment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has been refined to separate the spirometric assessment from symptom evaluation, and the concept of deescalation of therapy is introduced in the treatment assessment scheme.

TL;DR: Although exacerbations become more frequent and more severe as COPD progresses, the rate at which they occur appears to reflect an independent susceptibility phenotype, which has implications for the targeting of exacerbation-prevention strategies across the spectrum of disease severity.
