Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Atheromas and Cardiovascular Events

Microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) are emerging as a potential risk factor for cardiovascular disease in preclinical studies. Direct evidence that this risk extends to humans is lacking. We conducted a prospective, multicenter, observational study involving patients who were undergoing carotid en...
