Clearing the Air: A Review of the Effects of Particulate Matter Air Pollution on Human Health (2011, background): “The Children's Health Study [56] followed 1,759 patients over 8 years, finding that children who lived in communities with the highest PM concentrations were five times more likely to have low FEV1 than those in”
A Review of Carbon Nanotube Toxicity and Assessment of Potential Occupational and Environmental Health Risks (2006, background): “Gauderman et al. (2004) investigated the effect of air pollution on the growth of lung function of children during the period of rapid lung development that occurs between the ages of 10 and 18.”
An official American Thoracic Society public policy statement: Novel risk factors and the global burden of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. (2010, background): “Longitudinal cohort studies provide strong evidence of an association between outdoor pollution and decreased pulmonary function growth during childhood and adolescence (129, 132, 134).”
Studying the potential release of carbon nanotubes throughout the application life cycle (2008, background): “From epidemiological studies, it has been documented that particulate matter has a strong association with cardiopulmonary diseases [12, 13 ] and research has shown that nanoparticles may enter the human body more easily and be more biologically active due to their greater surface area per mass unit”
Black Carbon as an Additional Indicator of the Adverse Health Effects of Airborne Particles Compared with PM10 and PM2.5 (2011, background): “…exposure assessment strategy, and two papers on lung function growth in two cohorts of Southern California children [Brauer et al. 2002, 2006, 2007; Gauderman et al. 2002, 2004; Gehring et al. 2002; Morgenstern et al. 2007, 2008; see Supplemental Material, Tables F1, F2…”
Ozone Pollution: A Major Health Hazard Worldwide (2019, background): “Long-term exposures to ozone have been associated with lower lung function and deteriorated or abnormal lung development in children (31, 32).”
Childhood Incident Asthma and Traffic-Related Air Pollution at Home and School (2010, methodology): “5 measured at each community monitor were assigned to all children in the community, because there was little year-toyear variation within individual communities, based on these data and on historical data for 9 of the 13 study communities that have been monitored since 1994 as part of the exposure ”
Health effects of particulate air pollution: A review of epidemiological evidence (2011, methodology): “Results of the Californian Children’s Health Study, for example, showed that children growing up in the most polluted areas were left with substantial deficits in lung function at age 18 (Gauderman et al., 2004).”
