Abstract

Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is one of the major pollutants in metropolitan areas. The current study was conducted to observe the effects of PM2.5 on cardiac autonomic modulation. The participants included 619 men and women aged from 35-75 in a residential area in Shanghai, China. All the participants were divided into four categories according to the distance between their apartments and major road. In addition, individual PM2.5 was measured using SIDEPAKTM AM510 (TSI, USA) from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm. At the end of the individual PM2.5 measurement, the systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, heart rate (HR), low-frequency (LF), high-frequency (HF), and LF/HF were determined. The association between individual PM2.5 level and the above health effects was analyzed using generalized linear regression. The results showed that the average concentration of individual PM2.5 was 95.5 and 87.0 μg/m(3) for men and women. Residential distance to major road was negatively correlated with the individual PM2.5. The results indicated that per 1.0 μg/m(3) increase of individual PM2.5 was associated with a 2.3 % increase for systolic pressure, 0.3 % increase for diastolic pressure, 0.4 % decrease for LF, and 0.4 % decrease for HF. Nevertheless,...Continue Reading

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
