Does exposure to indoor air pollutants (CO, PM2.5, PM10, NO2) increase cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in older adults?
Indoor air pollution (CO, PM2.5, PM10, NO2) poses a significant cardiovascular health risk to older adults, increasing mortality, myocardial infarction, and stroke.
Ndlovu et al. (2024) conducted a systematic review in Cardiovascular health outcomes. Indoor air pollutants (CO, PM2.5, PM10, NO2) was evaluated on Cardiovascular health outcomes including mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, and hospitalisation. Exposure to indoor air pollutants (CO, PM2.5, PM10, NO2) is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, and hospitalizations in older adults.
