so air pollution causes brain swelling and since aspirin decreases brain swelling it helps. also something about sperm count but they only studied older men so i'd expect lower sperm counts in older men 64% of whom were smokers.

Yes, but more than that:

Much less attention has been paid to air pollution’s impacts on short-term and long-term cognitive performance. The research that has been done has found air pollution can impair the cognitive performance of children, and influence cognitive decline in older adults.

That brain swelling is affecting how people think.
