We conducted a systematic review of all studies published between 1950 and 2007 of
associations between long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and the risks in adults of …

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between main air pollutants and all
cancer mortality by performing a meta-analysis. We searched PubMed, EMBASE (a …

Background Ambient air pollution is a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease, yet
uncertainty remains about the size of risks at lower levels of fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) …

Background The acute effects of exposure to ambient particulate matter with an
aerodynamic diameter≤ 1 μm (PM 1) on cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality remain …

Background Air pollution has been associated with increased mortality. However, updated
evidence from cohort studies with detailed information on various risk factors is needed …

Current day concentrations of ambient air pollution have been associated with a range of
adverse health effects, particularly mortality and morbidity due to cardiovascular and …

Background Air pollution is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Short-term
exposure (from one hour to days) to selected air pollutants has been associated with human …

Background Studies have shown that long‐term exposure to air pollution such as fine
particulate matter (≤ 2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter [PM 2.5]) increases the risk of all …

Background: Chronic exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM) has been suggested to be
associated with an increased risk of lung cancer, but the results were inconsistent. We …

Background: Short-term effects of air pollution are documented more than long-term effects.
Objective: We investigated 12-year impacts of ambient air pollutants on cardiovascular and …
