Overview

Review identifies pollution and psychosocial stress as significant contributors to cardiovascular disease, suggesting preventive measures.

Key Points

  • Pollution and climate extremes significantly increase cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, suggesting urgent action.
  • Research links air pollution, including PM2.5, to 0.3-0.7% increased cardiovascular mortality and blood pressure rises.
  • Epidemiological and experimental studies reveal that oxidative and inflammatory pathways mediate the effects of environmental stressors.
  • Preventive strategies, including regulating air quality and supporting urban greening, are vital to mitigate these health risks.
