abstract: Little is known about the association between air pollution and erectile dysfunction (ED), a disorderoccurring in 64% of men over the age of 70, and to date, no studies have been published. To address thissignificant knowledge gap, we explored the relationship between ED and air pollution in a group of older menwho were part of the National Social Life, Health, and Aging Project (NSHAP), a nationally representative cohortstudy of older Americans.
