The British newspaper “The Guardian” has published a new article on a study conducted by British researchers, which provides a growing body of evidence linking air pollution to an increased risk of dementia and stroke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The researchers have found that exposure to fine particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and other pollutants can cause inflammation in the brain, leading to damage that may contribute to cognitive decline and stroke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to scientific reports, stroke is the second-leading cause of death globally, accounting for about 11% of deaths. About 50 million people live with dementia, and the figure is expected to rise to about 150 million by 2050.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The findings of the study have strengthened the connection between air pollution and these health risks, including the impact of long-term exposure to traffic-related pollution on brain health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
