Ítem Efecto en la salud respiratoria por exposición a material particulado, una revisión sistemática de la literatura(Universidad El Bosque) Sandoval Rodríguez, Ana María; Torres Rubio, Anthony Ciprian; Trujillo Cárdenas, Silvana María; Valderrama Duran, Laura Constanza; Villamizar Tapia, Michelle; Malagón Rojas, Jeadran NevardoIt is a reality that air pollution has been on the uprise since the turn of the last century; creating, therefore, amongst other adverse effects, a negative impact on the health of citizens of great metropolis around the world. This phenom is not only due to the pollution generated industry sector, or otherwise “permanent sources” but also, because of the amount of motorized vehicles transiting through city streets in different cities (mobil sources). As an alternative for mobilization, many regions of the world have been striving to push strategies for active transportation, including the use of the bicycle for such means. In the present study, we try to make evident the effects on respiratory health due to exposure to PM 2.5 on users of active and passive methods of transportation. Methods: A systematic review of the literature present from 2008 to 2018 was conducted in accordance with the Prisma Statement parameters. The data base used included: PubMed, Embase, Virtual Library of health sciences and ProQuest Central; using MESH terms adapted to the subject of matter. Original articles were included, dedicated to study the impact of air pollution exposure to particulate matter and the acute effects on the respiratory health of bicycle users in urban areas. Results: Spirometric value acutely affected by exposure to air pollution due to PM 2.5 is the FEF 25-75% / FVC ratio. Conclusions: Protocol and methodological variety, and insufficient statistically significant study groups did not permit variable comparison among studies regarding respiratory health effects due to PM 2.5 . Different techniques for evaluating respiratory health were found to be used; among these being spirometry, which determines lung function by FEV1 and FVC. Ambient levels of eNO, MDA and BC were also measures utilized to exhibit lung functioning. Likewise, biomarkers such as leukocyte blood count, RCP, sICAM-1, sVCAM-1, IL-1B, IL-6, IL-8 and TNFa have been taken into account. Further research is required on the subject of matter in order to conclusively determine the acute effects due to PM 2.5 on respiratory health of active transport users.
