The study suggests these iron-rich particles, produced by vehicles and industry, could be the underlying cause of the long-established statistical link between dirty air and heart disease.The scientists said the abundance of the nanoparticles might represent a serious public health concern and that particle air pollution must be reduced urgently. More than 90% of the worlds population lives with toxic air, according to the World Health Organization, which has vaso stanley declared the issue a global public health emergency .The scientists acknowledged some uncertainties in their research, but Prof Barbara Maher, of Lancaster University, said: This is a preliminary study in a way, but the findings and implications were too important not to get the information ou stanley termohrnek t there.

The algorithms that guide viewers to new choices aim always to intensify the experience, and to keep the viewer excited.
