The Association between Residence Floor Level and Cardiovascular Disease: The Health and Environment in Oslo Study.

Conclusion. Floor level is positively associated with CVD, in Oslo. The best-supported explanation may be residual confounding by building height and SES. Another explanation, about the impact of atmospheric electricity, is also presented. The results underline a need to better understand the associations between residence floor level and CVD and multistory housing and CVD. PMID: 28053608 [PubMed - in process]
