The surface of the eye is constantly exposed to the external environment and is affected by atmospheric conditions and air pollution, and dry eye is a typical ocular surface disease. The aim of this study is to determine whether there are seasonal differences in the number of dry eye operations in Japan and to investigate whether meteorological conditions and air pollutants are related to. The operations were examined using the National Database of Health Insurance Claims and Specific Health Checkups of Japan (NDB) database from fiscal years 2019 to 2021.

Air pollution monitoring and modeling are the most important focus of climate and environment decision-making organizations. The development of new methods for air quality prediction is one of the best strategies for understanding weather contamination. In this research, different air quality parameters were forecasted, including Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen Monoxide (NO), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO), Ozone (O), Sulphur Dioxide (SO), Fine Particles Matter (PM), Coarse Particles Matter (PM), and Ammonia (NH).

Background: Air pollution may impair child growth and cognitive development, with potential markers including birth length and head circumference.

Methods: The Household Air Pollution Intervention Network (HAPIN) trial was an open label multi-country-randomized controlled trial, with 3200 pregnant women aged 18-34 years (9-19 weeks of gestation) randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) stove intervention compared to women continuing to cook with solid fuels for 18 months. Particulate matter ≤ 2.

Department of Emergency Medicine, College of Medicine, Hanyang University, Seoul, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:

Introduction: There is a paucity of research comparing the prognosis of patients with carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning only and CO poisoning with other toxic exposures. This study compared a group of patients with CO poisoning only and a group of patients with CO poisoning combined with other toxic exposures in terms of mortality and morbidity (ischemic stroke, venous thromboembolism (VTE), and myocardial infarction).

Method: This study used claims data from the National Health Insurance Service in South Korea.

A Prebiotic Route to Lactate from Acetaldehyde, Cyanide and Carbon Dioxide.

Chemistry

December 2024

University of Copenhagen, Chemistry, Universitetsparken 5, Kemisk Institut, 2100, Copenhagen, DENMARK.

The atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) has fluctuated throughout Earth's history. However, the role of CO2 in prebiotic chemistry has predominantly been limitedly postulated as a C1 precursor, which can be reduced to carbon monoxide or methane mimicking the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway. Herein we present neglected roles of CO2 as an active promoter in accessing biologically important C3-builidng blocks such as lactate, via redox-economic reaction cycles from cyanide (C1) and acetaldehyde (C2).
