Summary
This study looks at whether being overweight makes air pollution more harmful for children with asthma. About 200 kids from Baltimore, half overweight and half at a healthy weight, will get either real or fake air purifiers in their homes. The goal is to see if cleaning the air helps overweight kids more, and to understand why.
