In episode 13 of the CardiOhio Podcast, we learn about a newly emerging risk factor for cardiovascular disease, air pollution,  from a local expert, Dr. Sadeer Al-Kindi from University Hospitals in Cleveland.  We review the sources of air pollution in both westernized and developing countries, discuss the evidence for a causative role in development of cardiovascular disease, as well as potential pathophysiologic mechanisms.  We conclude by discussing strategies to mitigate risk both at the societal and individual levels.
