What is it about?
In our studies, we showed a relationship between the concentration of PM10, gaseous pollutants in air, and the number of new cases of T1DM in children in the Pomeranian Voivodeship In Poland.

Why is it important?
High exposure to gaseous pollutants and particulate matter in ambient air may be one of the factors contributing to the risk of developing T1DM in children. Therefore, it is important to take action to decrease air pollutant emissions in Poland. It is crucial to gradually but consistently eliminate the use of solid fuels, such as coal and wood in households, in favour of natural gas and electricity. The development of new technologies to improve air quality, such as “best available techniques” (BAT) or renewable energy sources (water, wind, and solar generation) is of critical importance as well.
