Air pollution and ST-elevation myocardial infarction: A case-crossover study of the Belgian STEMI registry 2009-2013.
Jean-François Argacha,Philippe Collart,A. Wauters,Pieterjan Kayaert,S. Lochy,Danny Schoors,Jeroen Sonck,T. de Vos,M. Forton,Olivier Brasseur,Christophe Beauloye,S. Gevaert,Patrick Evrard,Yves Coppieters,Peter Sinnaeve,Marc J. Claeys +15 more
TL;DR: PM2.5 and NO2 exposures incrementally increase the risk of STEMI, and the risk related to PM appears to be greater in the elderly, while younger patients appear to be more susceptible to NO2 exposure.

Short-term effects of nitrogen dioxide on hospital admissions for cardiovascular disease in Wallonia, Belgium
TL;DR: Evidence of the short-term effects of NO2 on hospital admissions for cardiovascular disease is reinforced and the different delay between exposure and health-related event for haemorrhagic stroke compared to ischemic stroke suggests different mechanisms of action.

Impact of COVID-19-related public containment measures on the ST elevation myocardial infarction epidemic in Belgium: a nationwide, serial, cross-sectional study.

TL;DR: A 26% reduction in STEMI admissions and a delay in treatment of STEMI patients is revealed and less exposure to external STEMI triggers and/or reluctance to seek medical care are possible explanations of this observation.
Short-term effects of air pollution on hospitalization for acute myocardial infarction: age effect on lag pattern.
TL;DR: It is indicated that age plays a major role in the lag pattern of relative risk of hospitalization for acute myocardial infarction and NO2, PM10 and O3, and younger people have delayed effects, but they are nevertheless sensitive to air pollution.

Comparison of four case-crossover study designs to analyze the association between air pollution exposure and acute myocardial infarction.
TL;DR: It is suggested that the different methods of case-crossover study design are suitable to studying the association between acute events and air pollution, and the temperature-stratified design is useful to exclude temperature as a potential confounder.
