Air pollution affects 90% of the world's population and has caused 9 million deaths in 2015,
becoming the most important cause of premature deaths in the world. Exposure to fine …

PM10 is the international convention for measuring environmental particulate air pollution.
Increases in PM10 have been linked to exacerbations of airways disease and deaths from …

Air pollution is now becoming an independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and
mortality. Numerous epidemiological, biomedical and clinical studies indicate that ambient …

Ambient air pollution due to particulate matter≤ 2.5 μ is the leading environmental risk factor
contributing to global mortality, with a preponderant majority of these deaths attributable to …

Urban air pollution is a serious worldwide problem due to its impact on human health. In the
past 60 years, growing evidence established a correlation between exposure to air …

Several plausible mechanisms have been proposed to explain the adverse health effects of
particulate matter (PM) in polluted ambient air [1]. To date, experimental support has been …

Air pollution, especially airborne particulate matter (PM), is associated with an increase in
both morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease, although the underlying …

Recent epidemiological studies associate health effects and particulate matter in ambient
air. Exacerbation of the particle-induced inflammation can be a mechanism responsible for …

Research links air pollution mostly to respiratory and cardiovascular disease. The effects of
air pollution on the central nervous system (CNS) are not broadly recognized. Urban outdoor …

Several epidemiologic and toxicological studies have commonly viewed ambient fine
particulate matter (PM2. 5), defined as particles having an aerodynamic diameter of less …
