The findings suggest that aromatic VOCs, particularly toluene, were consistently associated with the observed health outcomes and may be associated with a measurable ecological burden of pediatric AD and asthma at the population level.

Introduction Atmospheric volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are critical pollutants that significantly affect urban air quality and drive photochemical reaction processes. Industrial cities, especially those in western China, often face unique VOC pollution characteristics due to regional industrial structures and geogr...
This study conducted age-specific and source-oriented health risk assessments of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at four measurement sites in Seoul (Gangseo (GS), Gwangjin (GJ), Bukhansan (BHS), and Jongno (JN)). By comparing source-specific concentration contributions with health risk-based contributions, priority s...

BACKGROUND
Urban exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is associated with several adverse health outcomes, including cancers and respiratory outcomes. We conducted a year-long VOC monitoring campaign in South Philadelphia to evaluate the impacts of traffic and redevelopment of a former oil refinery site on loca...

Children are vulnerable to indoor environmental exposures, yet evidence from direct measurements in residential environments remains limited. This study included 115 observations from 74 children in Shenzhen during 2023–2024, with 111 observations available for regression-based analyses. Indoor environmental indicators...
Ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) poses acute multi-organ health risks, but evidence on its constituent-specific early-stage morbidity risks remains limited. We conducted a nationwide time-stratified case-crossover study using over 212 million daily outpatient records for 12 major diseases from 274 Chinese cities...
