Issue Date: | 2025 | Publisher: | Source: | European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, | Status: | Early view | Abstract: | Early-life environment is crucial for foetal programming and later-life development. Exposure to particulate air pollution during gestation may increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) later in life. We investigated the association between exposure to PM2.5 (particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 μm or less) during gestation and pulse wave velocity (PWV) in children. | Other: | This work was previously presented during the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology (ISEE) Young Conference 2024, Rennes—France. | Keywords: | Air pollution;Arterial stiffness;ENVIRONAGE;Prenatal;Pulse wave velocity | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/49295 | ISSN: | 2047-4873 | e-ISSN: | 2047-4881 | DOI: | 10.1093/eurjpc/zwaf647 | ISI #: | 001640191600001 | Rights: | The Author(s) 2025.
