PM2.5 air pollution and cause-specific cardiovascular disease mortality

TL;DR: Long-term exposure to fine particulate air pollution is associated with ischaemic heart disease and stroke mortality, with excess risks occurring in the range of and below the present US long-term standard for ambient exposure to PM2.5, indicating the need for continued improvements in air pollution abatement for CVD prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ambient particulate matter air pollution exposure and mortality in the NIH-AARP diet and health cohort

TL;DR: Long-term exposure to PM2.5 air pollution was associated with an increased risk of total and CVD mortality, providing an independent test of the PM21.5–mortality relationship in a new large U.S. prospective cohort experiencing lower post-2000 PM3.5 exposure levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive evidence implies a higher social cost of CO2

TL;DR: In this article , the authors show that improved probabilistic socioeconomic projections, climate models, damage functions, and discounting methods that collectively reflect theoretically consistent valuation of risk substantially increase estimates of the social cost of carbon dioxide (SC-CO2).
Journal ArticleDOI

Particulate Air Pollution and Clinical Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors.

TL;DR: Findings from this large, diverse study indicate that greater long-term PM10 exposure is associated with elevated serum triglycerides and total cholesterol, potentially mediating air pollution-related effects on CVD.
