(Air pollution, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)

Sažetak
Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most common reasons for hospital admissions worldwide. In the last few decades, atmospheric pollution has been identified as a cause of COPD exacerbations, but recent results suggest that adverse health effects of air pollution exist at levels of pollutants around and below the current national and international air quality guidelines and standards. The aim of this study was to investigate the short term relationship between air pollution, meteorological variables and daily number of ED admissions for COPD
