Narrative
Air pollution is associated with detrimental effects on human health, including decreased cardiovascular function. However, the causative mechanisms behind these effects have yet to be fully elucidated. This project tries to link current epidemiological, clinical and experimental evidence linking pollution with the causative mechanisms of cardiovascular dysfunction.| Impact date | 2019 |
