“…Daily mortality data from this system have been widely used in previous studies. 37 , 38 , 39 A total of 100 Chinese cities were initially obtained, among which, 96 cities were included in the following analyses based on these criteria: (1) the availability of daily respiratory death counts and air pollution data, (2) the daily mortality counts did not have large fluctuations during our study period, (3) there were no adjustments to the cities' administrative area. The 96 cities were further divided into seven regions based on the geographic distribution: East (n = 31), South (n = 8), Southwest (n = 8), North (n = 8), Northeast (n = 14), Northwest (n = 12), and Central (n = 15) ( Figure 2 ).…”

“…PM 2.5 in the air significantly contributes to the public health impact of ambient air pollution ( 6 , 7 ). Due to its small size, PM 2.5 can enter the human brain and lungs, leading to a variety of disorders, including those of the respiratory system ( 8 ). A meta-analysis revealed that ambient PM 2.5 is associated with lower and upper respiratory infections, and chronic respiratory diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer ( 9 ).…”

Background: Exposure to ambient particulate matter pollution (APMP) is a global health issue that directly affects the human respiratory system. Thus, we estimated the spatiotemporal trends in the burden of APMP-related respiratory diseases from 1990 to 2019.Methods: Based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019, data on the burden of APMP-related respiratory diseases were analyzed by age, sex, cause, and location. Joinpoint regression analysis was used to analyze the temporal trends in the burden of different respiratory diseases over the 30 years.Results: Globally, in 2019, APMP contributed the most to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), with 695.1 thousand deaths and 15.4 million disability-adjusted life years (DALYs); however, the corresponding age-standardized death and DALY rates declined from 1990 to 2019. Similarly, although age-standardized death and DALY rates since 1990 decreased by 24% and 40%, respectively, lower respiratory infections (LRIs) still had the second highest number of deaths and DALYs attributable to APMP. This was followed by tracheal, bronchus, and lung (TBL) cancer, which showed increased age-standardized death and DALY rates during the past 30 years and reached 3.78 deaths per 100,000 persons and 84.22 DALYs per 100,000 persons in 2019. Among children aged < 5 years, LRIs had a huge burden attributable to APMP, whereas for older people, COPD was the leading cause of death and DALYs attributable to APMP. The APMP-related burdens of LRIs and COPD were relatively higher among countries with low and low-middle socio-demographic index (SDI), while countries with high-middle SDI showed the highest burden of TBL cancer attributable to APMP.Conclusions: APMP contributed substantially to the global burden of respiratory diseases, posing a significant threat to human health. Effective actions aimed at air pollution can potentially avoid an increase in the PM2.5-associated disease burden, especially in highly polluted areas.

“…The acute and long-term effects of ambient air pollution on human health are well known. Some epidemiological studies showed that the degree of exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM) is associated with daily mortality, mainly from cardiovascular and respiratory diseases (Liu et al 2019a;Tian et al 2020). Previous epidemiological studies have Yaoyu Hu and Mengqiu Wu contributed equally to this work.…”

An increasing number of studies examined the potential effects of PM1 (submicronic particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter ≤ 1 μm) on the risk of respiratory diseases; however, the results have been inconclusive. This study aimed to determine the overall association between PM1 with total and cause-specific respiratory diseases. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted with 68 related articles retrieved, and six articles met the full inclusion criteria for the final analysis. For a 10 μg/m3 increase in PM1, the pooled odds ratio (OR) was 1.05 (95% CI 0.98–1.12) for total respiratory diseases, 1.25 (95% CI 1.00–1.56) for asthma, and 1.07 (95% CI 1.04–1.10) for pneumonia with the I2 value of 87%, 70%, and 0%, respectively. Subgroup analyses showed that long-term exposure to PM1 was associated with increased risk of asthma (OR 1.47, 95% CI 1.33–1.63) with an I2 value of 0%, while short-term exposure to PM1 was not associated with asthma (OR 1.07, 95% CI 0.89–1.27) with the I2 value of 0%. Egger’s test showed that publication bias existed (P = 0.041); however, the funnel plot was symmetrical with the inclusion of the moderator. In conclusion, elevated levels of PM1 may increase morbidity in total and cause-specific respiratory diseases in the population.
