5-10. Read the following passage and answer the following questions.
Environmental risk factors, particularly air pollution, have been associated with the increased risk of neurological disorders. In 2017, The Lancet Commission on pollution and health reported that all types of pollution i.e. air, water, soil, chemical, and occupational pollutants is the world's largest environmental cause for poor health, responsible for about nine million deaths which were 16% of all deaths globally. Exploring, understanding, and preventing the effects of sustained exposure to air pollutants on the brain, and possible links to diseases of the nervous system, will be one of the future challenges for global health, and was the topic of discussion at the 2nd International Meeting on Environmental Health, held in Strasbourg, France. Air pollution is recognized as a global public health issue: the Global Burden of Diseases, injuries, and risk factors Study reported that air pollution alone was responsible for 6•7 million deaths globally in the recent past. Furthermore, the number of deaths is expected to more than double by 2050 if no action is taken. Low-income and middle-income countries bear the largest disease burden, as reported in The Lancet Commission, with almost 92% of all pollution-related deaths occurring in these regions. However, a first bright spot in the field was a 23% reduction in the age-standardized death rates for all causes of air pollution in the last decade.
Although neurological effects attributable to air pollution have been shown in several studies, global data on the effects of air pollution exposure on the brain are absent. That air pollution might cause 30% of all strokes, and thus might be one of the leading contributors of the global stroke burden, was highlighted in an analysis of stroke and risk factors from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013. The mechanism of action is most likely a direct effect of particulate matter—a mixture of solid particles and liquid droplets found in the air and in gases such as ozone and nitrogen dioxide—on the vascular system, causing oxidative stress and inflammation. Even if the neurological effect attributable to exposure to air pollutants on an individual might be small to modest, the overall attributable risk might be considerably higher, given that a large proportion of the population is exposed to air pollutants. Whether air pollution also affects dementia, the second largest neurological cause of disability-adjusted life-years according to the GBD 2015 Study, is less clear. Recent epidemiological studies and animal models suggest an increased risk of dementia with sustained exposure to air pollutants, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear and potential confounding factors such as including lifestyle factors (e.g. diet, physical activities) and medical history cannot be excluded. However, given the strong association between stroke, vascular risk factors, and dementia, the suggested link between air pollution and dementia is to be expected. Neurological disorders represent the largest cause of disability-adjusted life-years and the second-largest cause of global deaths behind cardiovascular diseases, as highlighted in the GBD 2015 Study. Thus, the potential negative effects of environmental pollution on neurological health should receive more attention from researchers, funders, regulators, and governments.
Even though—with the exception of stroke—definitive cessations on the neurological effects associated with sustained exposure to air pollution cannot be arrived at from current knowledge, given the broader health issues, implementation of policies that seek to improve air pollution should be a priority for governments. The United Nations and WHO have both been driving forces in improving air quality and have launched several pollution-reducing action plans. For example, WHO has developed indoor and outdoor air quality guidelines, and “the investigation of health impacts of climate and environmental change” is one of the top four WHO health priorities. The United Nations' 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development—a set of 17 goals established to achieve global sustainable development by 2030—recognises air pollution as the greatest environmental health risk, and it is likely that pollution control will have positive effects on many of these goals and on neurological health. The good news is that air pollution can be controlled and that the growing recognition of air pollution as a potential contributor to neurological disease is promising for improved brain health. Improvements now need to be made in study design and measurement of air pollution to enable more reliable and accurate estimates about the possible negative effects on brain health, beyond those on cerebrovascular disease.
5 According to the passage, mention what could be a hard nut to crack with reference to the current scenario of air pollution?
