Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Mehjar Azzouz"
- Mehjar Azzouz's recent research focuses on the intersection of air pollution, heat exposure, and their combined impact on public health, specifically mortality and cardiovascular diseases in various populations, including studies conducted in California and Sweden.
- One key finding highlights the exacerbated vulnerability to extreme air pollution and heat in areas with lower socioeconomic status, indicating a significant relationship between environmental factors and health outcomes.
- Azzouz's work also explores the biological mechanisms linking air pollution to cardiovascular diseases, particularly emphasizing inflammation and coagulability as contributing factors to conditions such as venous thromboembolism, further underlining the health risks associated with long-term exposure to polluted environments.
