Exposure to ambient air pollution is associated with greater functional impairment and faster cognitive decline in behavioral‐variant frontotemporal degeneration
Exposure to elevated NO2 is associated with worse functional impairment at baseline and faster subsequent cognitive decline. Imaging and pathologic studies are necessary to identify potential mechanisms of these associations. References [1]. Carey et al. 2014 BMJ Open https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2018-022404 [2].
