Criteria air pollutants and HIV-related mortality: insights from a nationwide case-crossover investigation
The heightened vulnerability of individuals with HIV to environmental stressors is well-recognized, yet the role of air pollution in exacerbating HIV-related mortality remains underexplored. In this nationwide, individual-level case-crossover study conducted from 2013 to 2019, we investigated the association between short-term exposure to criteria air pollutants and HIV-related mortality. Our analysis of 38,510 HIV-related deaths revealed significant associations between exposure to PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and CO and increased mortality risk. The effects of PM2.5 and PM10 persisted for two days, whereas NO2 and CO had immediate, same-day impacts. Vulnerability was heightened in individuals under 65 years, males, those with lower educational attainment, and unmarried individuals. Among causes of death, HIV-related malignant neoplasms exhibited the highest sensitivity to particulate matter. Our findings provide novel insights into the relationship between short-term air pollution exposure and HIV-related mortality, emphasizing the increased susceptibility of this immunocompromised population. The results underscore the need for targeted public health interventions to reduce pollution exposure, particularly for the most at-risk demographic groups. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of environmental health risks faced by individuals living with HIV and informs evidence-based policy recommendations.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Hazardous Materials serves as a global platform for promoting cutting-edge research in the field of Environmental Science and Engineering. Our publication features a wide range of articles, including full-length research papers, review articles, and perspectives, with the aim of enhancing our understanding of the dangers and risks associated with various materials concerning public health and the environment. It is important to note that the term "environmental contaminants" refers specifically to substances that pose hazardous effects through contamination, while excluding those that do not have such impacts on the environment or human health. Moreover, we emphasize the distinction between wastes and hazardous materials in order to provide further clarity on the scope of the journal. We have a keen interest in exploring specific compounds and microbial agents that have adverse effects on the environment.
