Background

The interactions between pollutants and temperature coexposure, the mixing effects and their potential mechanisms remain uncertain.

Methods

This retrospective cohort study included 11,766 women with infertility who received treatment at Fujian Hospital between 2015 and 2024. The daily mean concentrations of the six pollutants and the relative humidity and temperature data were acquired from the Fujian region. Data on genes were obtained from the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database.

Results

O₃ (aOR=0.80, 95 % CI=0.725-−0.891) and temperature (aOR=0.936, 95 % CI=0.916-−0.957) were negatively correlated with live birth rates. Moreover, PM₁₀ (aOR=1.135, 95 % CI=1.028-−1.252) and PM_2.5 (aOR=1.146, 95 % CI=1.03-−1.274) were positively associated with preterm birth. Among the effects on live births, PM_2.5, PM₁₀, NO₂, CO, and SO₂ had significant synergistic effects with temperature; in addition, O₃ had significant antagonistic effects with temperature. A notable trend toward declining live birth rates with elevated concentrations of mixed pollutants was observed. Different infertility patients have different sensitivities to coexposure. Gene enrichment and cell experiments are associated mainly with cellular life activities.

Conclusions

Individual effects, interactions, and mixed effects between temperature and air pollutants and birth outcomes persist when air pollutant levels are relatively low. AAP may trigger miscarriage through cytotoxic effects.
