<p>Studies have shown how air pollution and temperature affect blood pressure. We investigated the combined effect of air pollution and temperature on blood pressure in a cohort of older German women. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) data from follow-up 3 (2012–2013) of the Study on the influence of Air pollution on lung function inflammation and ageing (SALIA) cohort. Short-term data on daily air pollutants and temperature were obtained from the German Weather Bureau and the German Environment Agency. A generalized additive model was used to capture their combined effect. Stratified analyses were performed to quantify the variation in the estimated effects. The core model was adjusted for potential covariates. We observed a combined association of temperature and air pollution with blood pressure. We found that lower temperatures and higher levels of air pollutants such as PM_2.5 and NO₂ were associated with higher SBP and DBP. However, higher O₃ exposure was generally associated with lower SBP and DBP. Stratified analyses showed that the associations between temperature, air pollution, and blood pressure were stronger among women living in urban areas and those with lower socio-economic status. The combined effect of low ambient temperature and high air pollution substantially increased BP among older German women.</p>
