Hospitals in cities that have high levels of air pollution report higher rates of treatment for blocked arteries, according to a study. For the study, which was published in the European Society of Cardiology, researchers from Krakow, Poland, compared five cities in the country where the annual average PM10 concentration was over 50μg/m3 with six cities where levels were around half this. They then enrolled 5,648 patients from the ‘unpolluted’ cities and 10,239 patients from polluted cities with all patients having stents inserted coronary heart disease treatment to open arteries that had been blocked due to acute coronary syndromes such as heart attacks or unstable angina. Dates of stent procedures (PCIs) were matched with air quality on the same day during a 52-week period. Analyses were also performed to compare winter versus non-winter weeks because pollution levels rise during winter in Poland. The research found that patients in cities with clean air were more sensitive to pollution rises, with each 1 μg/m3 increase in PM10 concentration linked to 0.
