No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The adverse effects of air pollution on cardiovascular and respiratory health have been demonstrated in an extensive series of epidemiological, observational and experimental studies. In the current project the investigators aim to determine whether an acute exposure to diesel exhaust causes impacts on sympathetic nervous system activation in healthy volunteers.
