flag AIIMS Delhi launches study to link air pollution (PM 2.5) to lung cancer in non-smokers across Delhi-NCR.

flag AIIMS Delhi has launched the AIRCARE study to investigate the link between air pollution—specifically PM 2.5—and lung cancer risk in the Delhi-NCR region. flag The study will analyze 1,615 lung cancer patients and an equal number of family-based controls to assess long-term pollution exposure, genetic factors, and interactions with non-smoking status. flag Using cohort and case-control methods, researchers aim to identify a unique genetic signature in the Indian population linked to pollution-related lung cancer and develop a tailored, risk-based screening model. flag Findings could inform public health policy, prevention strategies, and healthcare planning amid rising lung cancer cases among non-smokers, especially women and young adults.
