Association between Long-term Exposure to Ambient Air Pollution and Myocardial Fibrosis Assessed with Cardiac MRI

Background Poor air quality is associated with cardiovascular morbidity. However, the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms are unclear. Purpose To determine the relationship between long-term exposure to ambient fine particulate matter with 2.5-µm or smaller aerodynamic diameter (PM ) and the exte...
