Study shows possible link between atmospheric pressure and increased risk of lung cancer.

From the article...
Considering more people live at lower elevations resulting in higher pollution and ground level ozone densities, an increase in lung cancer should be expected. When they factored that in, their theory fell apart.Quote:
Environmental correlates of elevation, such as sun exposure and pollution measures, produced significantly inferior predictions of lung cancer incidence when compared with elevation itself.
Too bad the media doesn't understand what bad research looks like.
