Within the multicentre project "Effects of Low-Level Air Pollution: A Study in Europe" (ELAPSE), we examined the associations of long-term exposures to particulate matter with diameter<2.5 µm (PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and black carbon (BC) with asthma incidence in adults.enCopyright ©ERS 2020.Long-term exposure to low-level air pollution and incidence of asthma: the ELAPSE project.Article1399-3003Eur Resp J 2021; 57(6):2003099
