| Abstract | Background Short-term exposure to PM2.5 has been associated with human health risks. However, evidence on the association between short-term exposure to PM2.5 and the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains limited and controversial. This study aimed to specifically assess the relationship between exposure to PM2.5 and the risk of hospitalization due to COPD. Methods A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases from January 1, 2010 to May 1, 2022. The odds ratio (OR) statistic was calculated as a common measure of effect size. Publication bias was also examined in all eligible studies on COPD hospitalization using funnel plots and Egger’s test, as well as trim-and-fill method for missing studies on COPD hospitalization. Results A total of 19 studies were included in this meta-analysis. Random-effects models were plotted to calculate the pooled effect size by measuring OR (χ2 = 349.95; df = 18; I2 = 94.86%; P = 0.007; Z = 2.68; P < 0.001). A 10-mg/m3 daily increase in PM2.5 concentration was associated with a 1.6% (95% CI: 0.4–2.9%) increase in COPD hospitalization. There was no publication bias regarding the association between COPD hospitalization and PM2.5 (bias = 1.508; 95% CI: -1.475, 4.491; t = 1.066; P = 0.301). The subgroups of age ≥ 65 years and Asian countries were associated with an increased risk of COPD hospitalization. Besides, higher risks were estimated in the subgroups of studies performed in the warm season, case-crossover studies, studies with three lag days, and studies without adjustments for humidity and temperature confounders, with very small heterogeneity. Conclusion Evidence suggests that short-term exposure to PM2.5 increases COPD hospitalization. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanism of the association between PM2.5 and COPD for reducing air pollution, which can be beneficial for COPD patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
