Genome-wide association and epidemiological evidence linking air pollution to aging mechanisms.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of air pollution on aging and aging-related diseases, focusing on potential causal relationships and molecular mechanisms. The first part involved a comprehensive analysis of global studies, examining the associations among PM exposure, telomere length, and sarcopenia incidence. The second part employed Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to explore potential causal association between PM exposure and shorter telomere length.

Ambient air pollution and the risk of cancer: Evidence from global cohort studies and epigenetic-related causal inference.

The correlation between air pollution and cancer incidence has been a longstanding concern, understanding the need to elucidate the specifics of this relationship. Thus, this study aimed to assess the association between exposure to air pollution and cancer incidence, and to identify the possible biological links between the two. We examined global cohort studies investigating the association between air pollution and cancer and performed a univariate Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.

A Healthy Lifestyle Offsets the Increased Risk of Childhood Obesity Caused by High Birth Weight: Results From a Large-Scale Cross-Sectional Study.

To investigate whether a healthy lifestyle is associated with the lower childhood obesity regardless of birth weight. Participants were selected from a large-scale cross-sectional study conducted in the seven provinces across China. Birth weight and lifestyle factors were collected through a questionnaire.
