Does air pollution affect lung function and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease?

8 Centre for Environmental Health and Sustainability, University of Leicester, Leicester, UK. Ambient air pollution increases the risk of respiratory mortality, but evidence for impacts on lung function and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is less well established.

What are the effects of air pollution?

Both long- and short-term exposure to air pollution can cause cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases (e.g. asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and mortality [ 1 ]. Children are more susceptible to the effects of air pollution than adults.

What is the relationship between air pollution and respiratory illness?

Exposure to indoor molds is associated with acute pulmonary hemorrhage among infants. High exposure to particulate and secondhand smoke is associated with sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). When we think of respiratory illness and air pollution, most people immediately think of pneumonia or asthma.

Does air pollution cause free radicals in the rat lung?

In vivo evidence of free radical formation in the rat lung after exposure to an emission source air pollution particle. Chem Res Toxicol 1997;10:1104–8.? ? This is one of the first studies to show in an in vivo setting free radical activity associated with ambient particulates. Costa DL, Dreher KL.
