Associations between long-term ozone exposure and small airways function in Chinese young adults: a longitudinal cohort study.

Background: Increasing evidence is appearing that ozone has adverse effects on health. However, the association between long-term ozone exposure and lung function is still inconclusive.

Objectives: To investigate the associations between long-term exposure to ozone and lung function in Chinese young adults.

Association between mercury exposure and lung function in young adults: A prospective cohort study in Shandong, China.

Background: Mercury has been associated with many adverse health outcomes. However, limited studies have explored the association between blood mercury concentrations and lung function.

Objective: To examine the association between blood mercury concentrations and lung function among young adults.

Long-term improvement of air quality associated with lung function benefits in Chinese young adults: A quasi-experiment cohort study.

Introduction: Long-term exposure to air pollution is associated with lung function impairment. However, whether long-term improvements in air quality could improve lung function is unclear.

Objectives: To examine whether the reduction of long-term air pollution was associated with lung function improvement among Chinese young adults.

Life-time summer heat exposure and lung function in young adults: A retrospective cohort study in Shandong China.

Background: The health impact of short-term heat exposure is well documented. However, limited studies explored the association between life-time summer heat exposure and lung function.

Objective: To examine the association between life-time summer heat exposure and lung function among young adults.
