Joint exposure to various ambient air pollutants and incident heart failure: a prospective analysis in UK Biobank

Abstract

Our results indicate that the long-term joint exposure to various air pollutants including PM2.5, PM10, PM2.5-10, NO2, and NOx is associated with an elevated risk of incident HF in an additive manner. Our findings highlight the importance to comprehensively assess various air pollutants in relation to the HF risk.
