Article Abstract
The authors describe the case of acute carbon monoxide intoxication in a 19 year old female patient, which caused, among other symptoms, bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. The symptoms, diagnostic methods and treatment with a particular regard to audiological examination were presented. Pathomechanism of carbon monoxide intoxication was also discussed. Despite the treatment, the effects of therapy have not been satisfactory.

Air pollution and long COVID: association with pulmonary function and radiological abnormalities 3-15 months post-COVID.

While studies have examined associations between air pollution and subjective long COVID outcomes such as fatigue and symptoms, no studies have focused on objective lung health measures. This study aimed to assess the impact of air pollution, examined through different exposure methods (exposures assigned via geospatial model, versus residential and personal measurements) on pulmonary function and radiological abnormalities in long COVID patients. We recruited 95 patients who attended a hospital outpatient clinic 3-6 months post-infection, during which pulmonary function was assessed via spirometry (FEV1,FVC,FEV1/FVC ratio) and diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO), along with a chest CT.

Air pollution is a significant public health issue that impacts lung health, particularly in vulnerable populations such as children, the elderly, and individuals with pre-existing respiratory conditions. Both natural and anthropogenic sources of air pollution give rise to a variety of toxic compounds, including particulate matter (PM), ozone (O₃), sulfur dioxide (SO₂), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), carbon monoxide (CO), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Exposure to these pollutants is strongly associated with the development and exacerbation of respiratory diseases, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung cancer, and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

Controlling vehicular emissions is a critical priority, particularly in developing countries like Brazil, where the vehicular fleet has expanded significantly. Although Brazil's Program to Control Vehicular Emissions has reduced certain air pollutants by mandating technological advancements in new vehicles, it did not consider the substantial increase in vehicle numbers and density across the country. To date, no comprehensive national-scale evaluation has been conducted to assess the program's effectiveness in Brazil.

Electrochemical CO reduction (CORR) to carbon monoxide (CO) offers a sustainable pathway for carbon utilization, yet challenges remain in terms of improving selectivity and activity. Herein, we report a Ni/NC catalyst synthesized via a milling - pyrolysis method, in which Ni particles anchored on nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) are electrochemically activated under an Ar atmosphere, leading to their structural evolution into single-atom Ni sites. After activation in Ar atmosphere, the current density nearly doubles (from ≈30 to ≈60 mA cm), and concurrently, the Faradaic efficiency of CO stays at ∼90% with the potential set to -0.

New York State has enacted public policies that have enabled a multi-decadal trend in air quality improvement. However, the benefits of cleaner air are not felt equally across the populace, with individuals residing in disadvantaged communities bearing disproportionate air pollution burdens due to proximity of polluting sources, in addition to other environmental stressors. To address this disparity, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation contracted with Aclima, Inc.
