臭氧(O3)被认为是一种重要的空气污染物,对心肺健康有影响。然而,室内臭氧暴露的影响受到的考虑较少。此外,睡眠占据了生命的三分之一,在这个关键时期,对O3暴露对健康的影响的研究很少。这项研究旨在调查睡眠期间室内O3与心肺功能和潜在诱发因素的关系。在北京对81名成年人进行了一项前瞻性研究,中国。反复测量反映肺功能的心肺指标,气道炎症,心脏自主神经功能,血压,全身性炎症,对每位受试者进行血小板和葡萄糖检测.监测睡眠期间室内O3的实时浓度。使用线性混合效应模型评估了O3与心肺指数的关联。通过基线生活方式(饮食,身体活动,睡眠相关因素)和心理状态(压力和抑郁)通过交互分析进行调查。睡眠期间室内O3平均浓度为20.3μg/m3,远低于中国现行室内空气质量标准160μg/m3。除气道炎症外,O3与大多数气道功能下降的呼吸指标相关;而心血管作用仅表现为自主神经功能障碍,而其他不表现为自主神经功能障碍。O3在6小时平均时的四分位数间距增加与-3.60%的变化有关(95%CI:-6.19%,-0.93%)和-9.60%(95%CI:-14.53%,-4.39%)分别在FVC和FEF25-75中。Further,在具有特定饮食模式的参与者中注意到更强的影响,睡眠较差,抑郁程度较高。这项研究提供了第一个基于一般人群的证据,表明在睡眠期间低水平暴露于室内O3对呼吸系统的影响大于对心血管系统的影响。我们的发现将呼吸系统确定为室内O3暴露的重要目标,并特别强调需要提高对室内空气质量的认识,尤其是在睡眠期间。
Ambient ozone (O3) is recognized as a significant air pollutant with implications for cardiorespiratory health, yet the effects of indoor O3 exposure have received less consideration. Furthermore, while sleep occupies one-third of life, research on the health consequences of O3 exposure during this crucial period is scarce. This
study aimed to investigate associations of indoor O3 during sleep with cardiorespiratory function and potential predisposing factors. A prospective
study among 81 adults was conducted in Beijing, China. Repeated measurements of cardiorespiratory indices reflecting lung function, airway inflammation, cardiac autonomic function, blood pressure, systemic inflammation, platelet and glucose were performed on each subject. Real-time concentrations of indoor O3 during sleep were monitored. Associations of O3 with cardiorespiratory indices were evaluated using linear mixed-effect model. Effect modification by baseline lifestyles (diet, physical activity, sleep-related factors) and psychological status (stress and depression) were investigated through interaction analysis. The average indoor O3 concentration during sleep was 20.3 μg/m3, which was well below current Chinese indoor air quality standard of 160 μg/m3. O3 was associated with most respiratory indicators of decreased airway function except airway inflammation; whereas the cardiovascular effects were only manifested in autonomic dysfunction and not in others. An interquartile range increases in O3 at 6-h average was associated with changes of -3.60 % (95 % CI: -6.19 %, -0.93 %) and -9.60 % (95 % CI: -14.53 %, -4.39 %) in FVC and FEF25-75, respectively. Further, stronger effects were noted among participants with specific dietary patterns, poorer sleep and higher level of depression. This
study provides the first general population-based evidence that low-level exposure to indoor O3 during sleep has greater effects on the respiratory system than on the cardiovascular system. Our findings identify the respiratory system as an important target for indoor O3 exposure, and particularly highlight the need for greater awareness of indoor air quality, especially during sleep.
