Introduction: Short-term exposure to air pollution may worsen the course of ischemic heart disease (IHD), causing acute and chronic coronary syndromes.

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the risk of hospital admission due to chronic and acute coronary syndromes (ACS) after exposure to various air pollutants in Poland.

Methods: In this time-series study, the risk of hospital admission due to IHD over 3 days from exposure to several air pollutants was evaluated.

Existing researches had primarily investigated the associations between various air pollutants and the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) or diabetes mellitus (DM) separately. However, the significance and effects of PM and its components in patients with CHD and comorbid DM (CHD-DM) remain unclear. Patient data was sourced from the Beijing Municipal Health Commission Information Centre between January 1, 2014, and December 31, 2018.

Article Synopsis
  • Intense wildfires are increasingly impacting air quality, raising concerns about potential negative effects on cardiopulmonary health for people exposed to smoke, particularly in the Eastern US.
  • A study aimed to examine the relationship between smoke from wildfires in Western Canada and respiratory diseases in various demographic groups in Eastern US populations, using data from the University of Maryland Medical System.
  • Findings showed significantly higher rates of cardiopulmonary clinical encounters during "hotspot days" with elevated PM2.5 levels, indicating a correlation between increased pollution and health issues, especially during notable air quality deteriorations in June 2023.
