Journal ArticleDOI

Air pollution and lung cancer incidence in 17 European cohorts : Prospective analyses from the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE)

TL;DR: The meta-analyses showed a statistically significant association between risk for lung cancer and PM10 and PM2·5, and no association between lungcancer and nitrogen oxides concentration or traffic intensity on the nearest street.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of long-term exposure to air pollution on natural-cause mortality : An analysis of 22 European cohorts within the multicentre ESCAPE project

Rob Beelen, +92 more
- 01 Mar 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the association between natural-cause mortality and long-term exposure to several air pollutants, such as PM2.5, nitrogen oxides, and NOx.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial variation of PM2.5, PM10, PM2.5 absorbance and PMcoarse concentrations between and within 20 European study areas and the relationship with NO2 : results of the ESCAPE project

TL;DR: The ESCAPE study as discussed by the authors investigated the relationship between long-term exposure to outdoor air pollution and health using cohort studies across Europe, and found substantial variability in spatial patterns of PM2.5, PM10 and PMcoarse.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and incidence of cerebrovascular events: results from 11 European cohorts within the ESCAPE project.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors assessed the association between long-term exposure to multiple air pollens and the incidence of cerebrovascular events, and found that exposure to air pollution was associated with increased risk of stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term exposure to air pollution and cardiovascular mortality: an analysis of 22 European cohorts.

Rob Beelen, +73 more
- 01 May 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, air pollution has been associated with cardiovascular mortality, but it remains unclear as to whether specific pollutants are related to specific cardiovascular causes of death, and it is not known whether specific pollutant types are associated with specific risk factors.
