This report presents a study led by Ole Raaschou-Nielsen of the Danish Cancer Institute. The research team investigated four traffic-related air pollutants (fine particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, ultrafine particulates, and elemental carbon), noise, and green space in relation to cardiometabolic health in 2.6 million adults in Denmark.

This study evaluated associations between exposure to outdoor air pollution and risk of hospital admissions, disease severity, and death related to coronavirus disease among 4.6 million adults in Catalonia, Spain, in 2020.
