Reflections on the history of indoor air science, focusing on the last 50 years
Abstract
The scientific articles and Indoor Air conference publications of the indoor air sciences (IAS) during the last 50 years are summarized. In total 7524 presentations, from 79 countries, have been made at Indoor Air conferences held between 1978 (49 presentations) and 2014 (1049 presentations). In the Web of Science, 26 992 articles on indoor air research (with the word “indoor” as a search term) have been found (as of 1 Jan 2016) of which 70% were published during the last 10 years. The modern scientific history started in the 1970s with a question: “did indoor air pose a threat to health as did outdoor ai...

Current wheeze, asthma, respiratory infections, and rhinitis among adults in relation to inspection data and indoor measurements in single ‐family houses in Sweden—The BETSI study
Abstract
In the Swedish Building Energy, Technical Status and Indoor environment study, a total of 1160 adults from 605 single‐family houses answered a questionnaire on respiratory health. Building inspectors investigated the homes and measured temperature, air humidity, air exchange rate, and wood moisture content (in attic and crawl space). Moisture load was calculated as the difference between indoor and outdoor absolute humidity. Totally, 7.3% were smokers, 8.7% had doctor’ diagnosed asthma, 11.2% current wheeze, and 9.5% current asthma symptoms. Totally, 50.3% had respiratory infections and 26.0% rhinitis. The mea...

Predictors of summertime heat index levels in New York City apartments
ConclusionsWe provide concrete evidence of higher heat levels in top floor apartments and in homes with certain types of AC. High heat levels that persist indoors after outdoor heat has subsided may present an underappreciated public health risk.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
