The study by Chen et al. investigated the long-term effects of ambient air pollution on the risk of lung cancer using data from four administrative cohorts. The study found a significant association between exposure to air pollution and increased incidence and mortality from lung cancer. This suggests that prolonged exposure to ambient air pollution may contribute to the development and progression of lung cancer. The findings highlight the importance of addressing air pollution as a public health concern to reduce the risk of lung cancer and improve overall respiratory health.
