The association between air pollution and three types of diabetes: An umbrella review of systematic reviews and meta-analyses

Results suggest that exposure to air pollution may increase diabetes risk to some extent, particularly for T2DM. However, due to limited available studies, further prospective cohort studies are warranted to elucidate the role of air pollutants in diabetes, particularly for T1DM. Additionally, understanding potential mechanisms by which air pollution affects diabetes is crucial for future investigations.
