ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Expiratory airflow limitation (EAL) is closely associated with respiratory health in youth and adulthood. Owing to limited evidence, we aim to estimate the association between air pollutants, both individually and in combination, along with their chemical compositions, and the risk of EAL in youth based on data obtained from Northeast China Biobank.

METHODS:

Pulmonary function was evaluated using a medical-grade pulmonary function analyzer, with EAL defined as a forced expiratory flow in 1 s/ forced vital capacity ratio of < 0.8. Land use regression models were used to predict exposure to six air pollutants. Air pollution score (APS) for each participant was constructed as combined exposure. The chemical composition of particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of ≤ 2.5 µm (PM2.5) was determined using a validated machine-learning algorithm. Logistic regression models were employed to estimate effect sizes, and odds ratio (OR) and 95 % confidence intervals (CI) were calculated.

RESULTS:

In total, 905 EAL cases were identified among the 4301 participants, with a prevalence of 21.04 %. Each inter-quartile range increase in APS was associated with a 25 % higher risk of EAL (OR = 1.25, 95 % CI 1.12, 1.39). Among the pollutants analyzed, PM2.5 exposure had the strongest association with the risk of EAL (OR = 1.33, 95 % CI 1.18, 1.52). Out of the five chemical components, sulfate (SO2-4) (OR = 1.39, 95 % CI 1.24, 1.57) and ammonium (NH+4) (OR = 1.39, 95 % CI 1.23, 1.57) exhibited the strongest associations with the risk of EAL.

CONCLUSIONS:

Overall, combined effects of air pollution increased the risk of EAL in youth, with SO2-4 and NH+4 emerging as the predominant contributing chemical components in Northeast China.
