Research progress on correlation between indoor air pollution and cognitive function

Abstract

Abstract: As a global environmental health problem,indoor air pollution is an important cause of many diseases. Cognitive dysfunction is a common disease among the population,and the prevalence rate is increasing year by year,which not only reduces the quality of life of patients,but also brings a heavy burden to the family and society. There are many factors affecting cognitive decline,and the view that indoor air pollution may be a risk factor for cognitive decline has attracted more and more attention.Therefore,this article reviews the literature on indoor air pollutants,their sources and cognitive function,in order to provide certain reference basis for the prevention of health risks associated with indoor air pollution.

Key words: Solid fuel, Indoor air pollution, Cognitive function, Review
