Summary

This comprehensive review examines the emerging evidence linking microplastic and nanoplastic exposure to cardiovascular health problems. The evidence suggests that plastic particles may contribute to heart and blood vessel disease, though more research is needed to fully understand the long-term effects. The review highlights the urgent need for further studies on how chronic exposure to these tiny particles affects the cardiovascular system.

Body Systems

The evidence suggests a concerning link between plastic exposure and cardiovascular health, highlighting the urgent need for further research to understand the long-term effects of MPs and NPs on CVSs.
