Researchers say diabetes risk rises by about 16% for an increase of 10 microgrammes per cubic metre in long-term PM2.5 particle exposure.
People make their way through heavy smog on an extremely polluted day with red alert issued, in Shengfang, Hebei province, China.
Increased prosperity has brought changing diets and lifestyles, along with an air pollution crisis that the World Health Organisation estimates causes over a million premature deaths every year. Researchers collected data from over 88,000 subjects across 15 provinces, estimating their exposure to PM2.5 based on satellite data from 2004 to 2015.
“Due to high levels of PM2.5, different exposure pattern and population susceptibility, results from developed countries with low PM2.5 levels were not applicable in China,” Lu said.
