TLDR
In this article, the association between wildfire-related PM2·5 exposure and mortality was examined using a quasi-Poisson time series model in each city considering both the current-day and lag effects, and the effect estimates were then pooled using a random-effects meta-analysis.

Global climate change and human health: pathways and possible solutions

TL;DR: In this paper , the main signs of climate change so far, e.g., suboptimal ambient temperature, sea-level rise and other conditions, and depicts the interactive pathways between different climate-changing events such as sub-optimal temperature, wildfires, and floods with a broad range of health outcomes.

Public health and economic impact assessment of PM2.5 from open biomass burning over countries in mainland Southeast Asia during the smog episode

TL;DR: In this article , the authors conduct a literature review on relative measures of the effect associated with the exposure to OBB emission in Mainland Southeast Asia (MSEA), to analyze the impact of OBB emissions on PM2.5 concentration in MSEA using the dispersion model, and to estimate the public health and economic impacts associated with OBB exposure.

Global estimates of daily ambient fine particulate matter concentrations and unequal spatiotemporal distribution of population exposure: a machine learning modelling study.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors implemented deep ensemble machine learning (DEML) to estimate global daily ambient PM2·5 concentrations at 0·1° × 0· 1° spatial resolution between Jan 1, 2000, and Dec 31, 2019.

Molecular-channel driven actuator with considerations for multiple configurations and color switching.

TL;DR: An ambient-driven actuator that takes advantage of inherent nanoscale molecular channels within a commercial perfluorosulfonic acid ionomer (PFSA) film, fabricated by simple solution processing to realize a rapid response, self-adaptive, and exceptionally stable actuation.

Air pollution and lung cancer incidence in 17 European cohorts : Prospective analyses from the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE)

TL;DR: The meta-analyses showed a statistically significant association between risk for lung cancer and PM10 and PM2·5, and no association between lungcancer and nitrogen oxides concentration or traffic intensity on the nearest street.

Global association of air pollution and heart failure: a systematic review and meta-analysis

TL;DR: Air pollution has a close temporal association with heart failure hospitalisation and heart failure mortality, and it should remain a key target for global health policy.

Ambient Particulate Air Pollution and Daily Mortality in 652 Cities

TL;DR: The data show independent associations between short-term exposure to PM10 and PM2.5 and daily all-cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory mortality in more than 600 cities across the globe, and reinforce the evidence of a link between mortality and PM concentration established in regional and local studies.
