10.1111/resp.14328 Global age-standardized mortality due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), updated to 2019, reported a decrease in most countries for men, whilst a plateauing or a slight increase for women, although heterogeneity by world region was observed. COPD still remains a leading cause of death and disability, in particular in countries with lower socio-demographic index (SDI).

10.1111/resp.14140 We examined the association between long-term exposure to particulate matter ≤2.5 μm (PM2.5) and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outcomes in 14,783 COVID-19 patients diagnosed at the University of Cincinnati Health System. Our results suggested that a 1-μg/m3 increase in annual average PM2.5 between 2009 and 2018 was associated with 14%–18% higher odds of hospitalization for COVID-19.Air Pollution and the Pandemic: Long-term PM2.5 exposure and disease severity in COVID-19 patients See related Editorial Current global perspectives on silicosis—Convergence of old and newly emergent hazards
