Exposure to particulate matter (PM) pollution damages the human brain. Fossil fuel burning
for transportation energy accounts for a significant fraction of urban air and climate pollution …

Particulate matter with a diameter of less than 2.5 μm or PM2. 5 is recognized worldwide as
a cause of public health problems, mainly associated with respiratory and cardiovascular …

Air pollution may increase risk of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) in the
US, but the extent of this relationship is unclear. Here, we constructed two national US …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a multifactorial, progressive, neurodegenerative disease
typically characterized by memory loss, personality changes, and a decline in overall …

Objective To investigate the role of air pollutants in risk of dementia, considering differences
by study factors that could influence findings. Design Systematic review and meta-analysis …

Background Air pollution may cause inflammatory and oxidative stress damage to the brain,
leading to neurodegenerative disease. The association between air pollution and dementia …

We study whether long-term cumulative exposure to airborne small particulate matter (PM2.
5) affects the probability that an individual receives a new diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease …

Background and Objectives Studies of association between air pollution and incidence of
dementia have shown discrepant results. The aim of this study was to evaluate the …

Background Ambient air pollution is a pervasive and ubiquitous hazard, which has been
linked to premature morbidity and a growing number of morbidity endpoints. Air pollution …

Recent extensive evidence suggests that ambient fine particulate matter (PM2. 5, with an
aerodynamic diameter≤ 2.5 μm) may be neurotoxic to the brain and cause central nervous …
