Air pollution has long been a global public health concern, with increasing evidence linking it
to various chronic diseases, particularly cardiovascular health. This paper explores the current
evidence on the detrimental effects of air pollution on cardiovascular health, including
mechanisms, risk factors, and population disparities. Additionally, it identifies key gaps in the
existing research and suggests future directions for investigation, especially focusing on the
role of emerging pollutants, long-term exposure effects, and the impact of mitigation
strategies. The findings highlight the urgency of addressing air pollution as a significant
determinant of cardiovascular disease, calling for more comprehensive, interdisciplinary
research efforts.
