- W2534807549 abstract "More than half the world's population lives in urban areas, and an estimated 863 million people currently live in urban slums. 1 UN HabitatState of the World's Cities 2012/13. Prosperity of cities. Routledge/Taylor & Francis, New York2013 Google Scholar Although urbanisation is usually coupled with economic development, rural-to-urban migration can result in negative implications for respiratory health. Slum residents who live in informal settlements and who commonly have inadequate access to health services are at a particularly high risk of being affected by the dual burden of infectious and non-communicable respiratory diseases over the course of their lives. These diseases include pneumonia in early life; asthma beginning in childhood; and tuberculosis, COPD, and restrictive lung diseases during adulthood. Threats to respiratory health include infections due to poor housing quality and overcrowding; ambient, traffic-related, and household air pollution; tobacco and second-hand smoke; occupational exposures; allergenic sensitisation; micronutrient deficiencies; poor and inadequate diet; and a sedentary lifestyle (appendix). Here, we present three examples to illustrate the threats to respiratory health confronted by people living in slums. The remarkable case of BangladeshThe odds seem stacked against Bangladesh. It is one of the poorest and most densely populated nations in the world, with almost one third of its roughly 160 million people living below the poverty line. Most of the country is situated on a flood plain, and inundations of varying intensities are a perennial problem. Cyclones regularly sweep in, with one early in 2016 forcing half a million people to flee their homes. Full-Text PDF Can India lead the way with the development of safer cookstoves?Indoor use of wood-burning and other biomass-fuelled cookstoves remains a major, if frequently overlooked, respiratory health hazard. In India, these cooking practices translate to high burdens of pneumonia, tuberculosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)—potentially leading to low birthweights in infants of women who spend much of their days cooking indoors, Giridhara R Babu (Public Health Foundation of India [PHFI], Bangalore, India) told The Lancet Respiratory Medicine.
