nitrogen-dioxide and Sjogren-s-Syndrome

Increasing evidence suggested that gaseous pollutants were associated with the development of autoimmune diseases, while there were few studies on the association between gaseous pollutants and Sjögren's syndrome (SS). This study sought to assess the relationship between exposure to several gaseous pollutants and the hospitalizations for SS.. The data regarding SS hospitalizations, gaseous pollutants, and meteorological factors in Hefei from 2016 to 2021 were collected. A distributed lag non-linear model combined with a generalized linear model were adopted to analyze the association between gaseous pollutants and SS hospitalizations, and stratified analyses were also conducted.. We detected significant associations between gaseous pollutants (NO. Our results demonstrated a significant association between exposure to NO
