This report presents a study led by Klea Katsouyanni at Imperial College London. Katsouyanni and colleagues evaluated whether detailed estimates of long-term, personal exposures to outdoor air pollution yield better estimates of the health effects of exposure than less detailed approaches.

Study examines cardiometabolic effects of air pollutants, noise, and green space

December 18, 2024

HEI has published a new Research Report, Cardiometabolic Health Effects of Air Pollution, Noise, Green Space, and Socioeconomic Status: The HERMES Study. Led by Ole Raaschou-Nielsen of the Danish Cancer Institute, the research team investigated four traffic-related air pollutants (fine particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, ultrafine particulates, and elemental carbon), noise, and green space in relation to cardiometabolic health in 2.6 million adults in Denmark.
