Long-term low-level ambient air pollution exposure and risk of lung cancer – A pooled analysis of 7 European cohorts Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Background/aim: Ambient air pollution has been associated with lung cancer, but the shape of the exposure-response function - especially at low exposure levels - is not well described. The aim of this study was to address the relationship between long-term low-level air pollution exposure and lung cancer incidence.
Methods: The “Effects of Low-level Air Pollution: a Study in Europe” (ELAPSE) collaboration pools seven cohorts from ...
