Brief summary

Background: There is a lack of data on the effect of air pollution on acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in industrial and non-industrial areas. Objectives: A comparison of association of air pollution exposure with ACS in two cohorts of industrially different areas. Materials and methods: The study covered 6,000,000 person-years of follow-up and five types of air pollution between 2008 and 2017. A time series regression analysis with 7-lag was used to assess the effects air pollution on ACS.
