Association between Ambient Pollution and Respiratory Health Effects in Elementary School Children in Beijing, China

摘要：

Background: Studies have shown association between air pollution and increased respiratory acute inflammation, decreased lung function and increased incidence of respiratory disease. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear, and the effects of specific pollutant constituents have not been well studied. This study was designed to assess the association between urban ambient pollution and respiratory health effects in elementary school children in Beijing, using exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) as a marker of respiratory inflammation.
