Each year there are approximately 6000 additional deaths caused by short-term exposure to air pollution and research suggests that 69% of these cases are in the form of Stroke heart or cerebrovascular accident (CVA).

Since the early 1990s, evidence increasingly overwhelming from Canada, the United States and Europe have reported higher rates of heart attack and hospitalization due to serious cardiovascular disorders such as heart failure and stroke after exposure to short-or long-term air pollution says Dr. Beth Abramson, spokesperson for the Stroke Foundation of heart and cardiologist.

According to the Stroke Foundation of heart, the duration of exposure http://www.staxynenligne.com is a critical element of the impact of air pollution on cardiovascular disease risk. Studies from different cities and countries produce different results, but research shows that every increase of 10 micrograms per cubic meter ((micro) g / m (3)) of long-term exposure to fine particulate matter ( PM2.5) can increase the risk of dying from heart disease c or stroke. For some people this may increase to 76%. Even short-term exposure can be dangerous. One study reported a higher daily rate of fine particles PM 2.5 as low as 20 (micro) g / m 3 can increase the risk of heart attack by 69% over the next 24 hours.
