“…The magnitude of the effect of PM 2.5 on OHCA varied among studies [34]. For example, in a case-crossover study [10] of 4657 OHCA patients and outdoor levels of PM 2.5 in Copenhagen, the strongest association with OHCAs was observed for Lag Day 4 of PM 2.5 ; the percentage increase in risk for an IQR increase of 4.69 µg/m 3 was 5.2% (95% CI: 1.0, 9.5%).…”

Air pollutants are associated with cardiovascular death; however, there is limited evidence of the effects of different pollutants on out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) in Beijing, China. We aimed to investigate the associations of OHCAs with the air pollutants PM2.5–10 (coarse particulate matter), PM2.5 (particles ≤2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and ozone (O3) between 2013 and 2015 using a time-stratified case-crossover study design. We obtained health data from the nationwide emergency medical service database; 4720 OHCA cases of cardiac origin were identified. After adjusting for relative humidity and temperature, the highest odds ratios of OHCA for a 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 were observed at Lag Day 1 (1.07; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.04–1.10), with strong associations with advanced age (aged ≥70 years) (1.09; 95% CI: 1.05–1.13) and stroke history (1.11; 95% CI: 1.06–1.16). PM2.5–10 and NO2 also showed significant associations with OHCAs, whereas SO2, CO, and O3 had no effects. After simultaneously adjusting for NO2 and SO2 in a multi-pollutant model, PM2.5 remained significant. The effects of PM2.5 in the single-pollutant models for cases with hypertension, respiratory disorders, diabetes mellitus, and heart disease were higher than those for cases without these complications; however, the differences were not statistically significant. The results support that elevated PM2.5 exposure contributes to triggering OHCA, especially in those who are advanced in age and have a history of stroke.

“…This is important for two reasons. First, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released during refueling can chemically react in the atmosphere, contributing to ozone and other secondary pollutant formation, which can harm human health directly through cardiovascular pathways (14). ORVR systems are intended to reduce this potential, by preventing VOCs from escaping into the atmosphere where they can react with other species.…”

Background: Gasoline contains large proportions of harmful chemicals, which can be released during vehicle refueling. Onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery (ORVR) can reduce these emissions, but there is limited research on the system's efficacy over time in an actual vehicle fleet. The aims of this study are: (1) determine the feasibility of using an infrared camera to view vapor emissions from refueling; (2) examine the magnitude of refueling-related emissions in an ORVR-saturated fleet, to determine need for an exposure-assessment.Methods: Using an infrared camera optimized for optical gas imaging of volatile organic chemicals, refueling was recorded for 16 vehicles at six gas stations. Pumps were inspected for damage, refueling shut-off valve functioning, and presence of Stage II Vapor Recovery. Vehicle make/model and age were recorded or estimated. Results:Vapor emissions were observed for 14 of 16 vehicles at each station, with severity varying substantially by vehicle make/model and age. Use of an infrared camera allowed for identification of vapor sources and timing of release, and for visualizing vapor trajectories.Discussion: Notably emissions occurred not only at the beginning and end of refueling but also throughout, in contrast to a prior study which did not detect increases in atmospheric hydrocarbon levels mid-refueling. Future studies are vitally needed to determine the risk to individuals during typical refueling in an ORVR saturated vehicle fleet. We recommend comprehensive exposure-assessment including real-time monitoring of emitted volatile organic compounds paired with infrared gas-imaging and measurement of internal dose and health effects of gas station customers.

В обзоре даны современные представления о связи загрязнения атмосферного воздуха взвешенными частицами с заболеваемостью и смертностью от хронических неинфекционных заболеваний. Рассмотрены результаты кра-тковременного и долговременного влияния взвешенных частиц на патогенез хронических неинфекционных за-болеваний в зависимости от их размера, происхождения, химического состава, концентрации в воздухе. Ключевые слова: загрязнение воздуха, взвешенные частицы, патогенез, хронические неинфекционные заболевания Конфликт интересов: авторы заявляют об отсутствии конфликта интересов Прозрачность финансовой деятельности: никто из авторов не имеет финансовой заинтересованности в представленных материалах или методах Для цитирования: Колпакова А.

DOI: 10.29001/2073DOI: 10.29001/ -8552-2018 The article presents modern outlooks of relationship between air pollution by particulate matter (PM) and human morbidity and mortality from chronic noninfectious diseases. The results of short-and long-term influence of PM on the pathogenesis of chronic noninfectious diseases depending on size, origin, chemical composition, and concentration in the air are discussed.
