Abstract

Background: Evidence for a relation between residential greenspace and respiratory health is scarce and controversial.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to explore the association between residential greenspace and its interaction with particulate matter (PM_2.5) and risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung function.

Methods: A total of 3,759 adults were recruited from Wenzhou in this study. Lung function measurements included forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1); forced vital capacity (FVC); FEV1/FVC ratio; peak expiratory flow (PEF); forced expiratory flow (FEF) at 25 %, 50 %, and 75 %; and maximal mid-expiratory flow (MMEF). The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was used to characterize the greenspace.

Results: The mean (SD) age of study participants was 62.8(10.2) years, with 51.8 % female. NDVI was positively associated with risk of COPD (odds ratio [OR]: 1.26, 95 % CI: 1.04-1.54) and inversely with lung function: the βs (95 % CIs) for FEV1; FVC; FEV1/FVC ratio; PEF; FEF25 %, 50 %, and 75 %; and MMEF were -0.09 (-0.12, -0.06); -0.07 (-0.10, -0.04); -1.39 (-2.06, -0.72); -0.66 ( -0.74, -0.57); -0.52 (-0.61, -0.43), -0.22 (-0.28, -0.15), and -0.05 (-0.09, -0.01); and -0.17 (-0.22, -0.12), respectively. In high PM_2.5 areas, NDVI was positively associated with COPD risk (OR: 5.40, 95 % CI: 3.45-8.58) and inversely with FEV1/FVC ratio (β:8.29, 95 % CI:9.82, -6.76) and FVC (β:0.13, 95 %CI:0.21, 0.06), and in low PM_2.5 areas, was positively associated with risk of COPD (OR: 1.75, 95 % CI: 1.12-2.80) and inversely with FEV1/FVC ratio (β:3.45, 95 % CI:4.80, 2.11).

Conclusions: High residential greenspace may be associated with increased risk of COPD and decreased lung function in adults, particularly in areas with high PM_2.5.

期刊介绍： Heart & Lung: The Journal of Cardiopulmonary and Acute Care, the official publication of The American Association of Heart Failure Nurses, presents original, peer-reviewed articles on techniques, advances, investigations, and observations related to the care of patients with acute and critical illness and patients with chronic cardiac or pulmonary disorders. The Journal''s acute care articles focus on the care of hospitalized patients, including those in the critical and acute care settings. Because most patients who are hospitalized in acute and critical care settings have chronic conditions, we are also interested in the chronically critically ill, the care of patients with chronic cardiopulmonary disorders, their rehabilitation, and disease prevention. The Journal''s heart failure articles focus on all aspects of the care of patients with this condition. Manuscripts that are relevant to populations across the human lifespan are welcome.
