“…21 Chronic bronchitis was a comorbidity associated with history of epilepsy among Italian nursing home residents. 22 Although cellular mechanisms activated by air pollution may represent risk factors for epilepsy and drug resistance 23 and obstructive sleep apnea has been associated with drug resistance in epilepsy, 24 to our knowledge there are no published reports showing that people with epilepsy and pulmonary diseases are at higher than expected risk of developing poor response to the available ASM. This purported association needs further investigation.…”

“…In recent years, systematic research into the health issues caused by air pollution has been directly focused on the effects of firework-related pollutants [ 11 , 12 ]. Findings from studies on mental disorders have also revealed that short-term air pollution exposure is associated with an increased risk of hospitalizations related to attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) [ 54 ], depression [ 54 ], schizophrenia, and epileptic seizures and/or hospitalizations [ 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 ]. Further, early research suggests that short term exposure to high air pollution concentrations could play a role in COVID-19 outcomes and exacerbations [ 60 , 61 ].…”

“…However, another study, performed in the city of Xi'an, showed that NO 2 and SO 2 were positively associated with epilepsy [418]. In support of such observations, a growing number of studies have shown that exposures to air pollutants can activate cellular mechanisms involved in epilepsy [478].…”
