<h4>Introduction</h4>An increasing number of studies have suggested that exposure to particulate matter (PM) may represent a novel - and potentially amendable - environmental determinant of brain aging. The current longitudinal environmental epidemiological study addressed some important knowledge gaps in this emerging field, which combines the study of air pollution and neuroepidemiology. The investigators hypothesized that long-term PM exposure adversely influences global brain volume and brai  ...[more]
