A new study by #EHMLab on heat-related risks of #hypoglycaemia in people with #Type1Diabetes. Novel #CTS design with #DLNM to study 33 million continuous glucose readings in 679 adults. Odds of hypoglycaemia increasing by 26% at 25C vs 13.

A new study from Inserm, ISGlobal), and #EHMLab at # LSHTM highlights benefits of urban #green in reducing heat-related mortality in #Paris. Trees outperform grass in protection, and 30% of excess mortality can be reduced if all districts have at least 20% of green areas.

New work by #EHMLab on tree #pollen and #asthma-related hospital admissions in England. #CTS analysis of HES 2008-22 linked with 10-km daily gridded pollen data. Highlights: risks mostly limited to children and increases at moderate pollen levels.

Interesting study from #EHMLab on known Monday peak in #CVD mortality and role of #airpollution. Analysis of 260,320 myocardial infarction (AMI) deaths over 15 years in Spain found no association with #PM2.5 & #PM10. Other factors likely responsible.

New study from #EHMLab found no detectable link between #UFP (ultrafine particle) and mortality, analysing 850k+ deaths in London/W. Midlands (2003-2018).
Findings suggest risks may be context-dependent, and emphasise need for location-specific research.

New article by #EHMLab at #LSHTM on confounding in #airpollution #epidemiology, with a case study using the #UKBiobank.
Key result: importance to control for residual spatial confounding and lifestyle factors.
Focus on #reproducibility, with #R code & synthetic data.
