By Tarun Sai LomteMay 26 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM A recent study published in the Nature Communications Journal explored associations between prolonged exposure to air pollution and severe coronavirus disease 2019 .
Several individual-level studies have reported associations between air pollution exposure and COVID-19-related hospitalization, especially for particulate matter < 2.5 μm in diameter ; estimates for nitrogen dioxide are less consistent in the literature. Secondary outcomes included hospital length of stay , admission to an intensive care unit , and death.
The main analytic model was adjusted for sex, age, smoking status, individual income, health region, urbanicity, the proportion of non-Spanish nationals, the weekly average proportion of positive tests, small area socioeconomic index, and the distance to the nearest primary care center. Additionally, six sensitivity analyses were performed.
Higher annual average PM2.5 or NO2 exposure was associated with an increased risk of COVID-19 outcomes in single-pollutant models.
