Air pollution

• Air pollution is a major public concern.


• Interest and research investment have increased since the 1980s.


• Knowledge has improved, but evidence quality is still poor in some areas.


• Key assumptions remain unchallenged and understudied.


• Research on health effects often has poorly formulated questions.


• Selective reporting of pollutants and outcomes is a common issue.
