Article Abstract
Air pollution is a major contributor to the global disease burden, especially affecting respiratory and cardiovascular health. However, physical activity is associated with improved lung function, a slower decline in lung function, and lower mortality. The public is more likely to be exposed to air pollution during outdoor physical activity. However, studies on how long-term and short-term exposure to air pollution interacts with physical activity yield inconsistent results, and the thresholds for air pollution and physical activity remain unclear. Thus, more studies are needed to provide sufficient evidence to guide the public to safely engage in outdoor physical activity when exposed to air pollution.

Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of individuals exposed to smoking or biomass smoke and followed at primary health care centers in Brazil: a multicenter study.
J Bras Pneumol
September 2025
. Universidade Federal de São Paulo, Escola Paulista de Medicina, São Paulo (SP) Brasil.
Objective: To describe the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of individuals exposed to smoking or biomass smoke and followed at primary health care (PHC) centers across three states in Brazil.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional multicenter study including patients followed at any of four PHC centers in Brazil. Patients ≥ 35 years of age who were smokers or former smokers, or were exposed to biomass smoke were included, the exception being those with physical/mental disabilities and those who were pregnant.
Racial disparities in COVID-19 deaths in Georgia.

The 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has brought to the forefront racial disparities in health outcomes across the US, but there is limited formal analysis into factors associated with these disparities. In-depth examination of COVID-19 disparities has been challenging due to inconsistent case definition, isolation procedures, and incomplete racial and medical information. As of June 2020, over 14,000 (25%) confirmed COVID-19 cases in Georgia did not have racial information.

Background: Prospective studies suggest that prenatal exposure to chemical neurotoxicants and maternal stress increase risk for psychiatric problems. However, most studies have focused on childhood outcomes, leaving adolescence-a critical period for the emergence or worsening of psychiatric symptoms-relatively understudied. The complexity of prenatal coexposures and adolescent psychiatric comorbidities, particularly among structurally marginalized populations with high exposure burdens, remains poorly understood.

Background: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is an increasingly prominent global public health issue, where air pollution significantly contributes to its rising incidence. Although numerous studies have explored the link between air pollution and AR pathogenesis, comprehensive summaries are still limited.
Objective: This study performs a bibliometric analysis to identify research hotspots and emerging trends, offering insights into AR prevention and management.
Oral Administration of Epigallocatechin Gallate Prevents Air Pollution-Induced Acute Lung Injury in Mice Via the Induction of Antioxidants.
