Article Synopsis
- Ambient air pollution is a significant risk factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which is a leading cause of death globally, and this study investigated the link between daily air pollutant levels and emergency room visits for acute COPD exacerbations.
- The research was conducted in Amiens, France, in 2017, analyzing 240 emergency room visits among 168 COPD patients and focusing specifically on pollutants like nitrogen dioxide, ozone, and particulate matter, while accounting for other factors like temperature and pollen allergies.
- The results showed a notable correlation between daily emergency visits and particulate matter concentrations, while long-term exposure to air pollutants did not show a consistent link to more frequent COPD exacerbations.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the physiological adaptations of males and females to repeated sprint training in hypoxia (RSH).
Methods: Active males and females completed 7 wk of repeated sprint training in normoxia (RSN; F i O 2 = 0.209, males: n = 11, females: n = 8) or RSH (F i O 2 = 0.
The early diagnosis of malaria is crucial to controlling morbidity and mortality. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends diagnosing malaria either using light microscopy or a malaria rapid diagnostic test (RDT). Most RDTs use antibodies to detect two histidine-rich proteins named PfHRP2 and PfHRP3.

Better survival rates thanks to the immunotherapy revolution and the improving performance of imaging lead to an increasing number of CM diagnosis.
