Francesca Dominici Pollution Quotations

When we analyzed the data for heart failure, we observed a 1.28 percent increase in admissions for each 10 microgram per cubic meter increase in fine particle pollution. Most of these admissions increases occurred the same day as the rise in fine particle concentration, which suggests a short lag time between the change in pollution and the subjects' response.

Our study is specific to the elderly, but there is epidemiological evidence that air pollution also affects the health of the younger population.
