Urban environments significantly increase risk of developing asthma - New research

A recent European study involving over 349,000 participants reveals a strong link between urban environments and asthma development. High air pollution, limited green spaces, and concrete-dominated areas significantly elevate asthma risk, especially in children. The research highlights that almost 12% of asthma cases can be attributed to these urban environmental factors, emphasizing the need for healthier urban planning.
