Background: There are few studies on the health effects of long-term exposure to neighborhood greenness in a longitudinal setting, especially in Asian countries with high population densities.
Objectives: This study investigates the association between long-term exposure to neighborhood greenness and hypertension among adults in Taiwan.
Methods: We selected 125,537 participants ( of age) without hypertension from Taiwan who had joined the standard medical examination program between 2001 and 2016.
Outdoor light at night and mortality in the UK Biobank: a prospective cohort study.

November 2023
Background: More than 83% of the world's population lives under light-polluted skies while information about health effects of outdoor light at night (LAN) is limited. We examined the association of LAN with natural cause (NC) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality using the UK Biobank.
Methods: We included 273 335 participants recruited between 2006 and 2010.
Objectives: Exercise may increase the inhaled amount of air pollutants and exacerbate the adverse health effects. We investigated the combined effects of chronic exposure to fine particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 µm (PM) and habitual exercise on C reactive protein (CRP), a sensitive marker of inflammation.

This study investigated the combined effects of habitual exercise and long-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM) on the incidence of dyslipidemia in a large longitudinal cohort in Taiwan.
Methods: A total of 121,948 adults (≥18 years) who received at least two medical examinations from 2001 to 2016 were recruited, yielding 407,821 medical examination records.
