This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), provides $174,323 to Temple University to conduct a secondary data analysis examining the effect of air pollution and neighborhood-level characteristics on acute respiratory disease in children across New York State. The study aims to: (1) examine the impact of air pollution on acute respiratory disease using a case-crossover design, (2) determine the effect of neighborhood-level factors on acute respiratory disease, and (3) evaluate which air pollution metrics and neighborhood characteristics are associated with acute respiratory disease, while assessing whether these associations vary by age, race, ethnicity, and sex. This research project is intended to enhance the current understanding of the combined effects of environmental exposures on pediatric respiratory health outcomes.
