Objective: Fine particulate matter air pollution (PM 2.5) and extreme temperatures have both
been associated with alterations in blood pressure (BP). However, few studies have …

Objectives: Both low temperature and high air pollution have been associated with an
increased risk of cardiovascular events, which could be predicted by increased arterial …

Background—Multiple studies have demonstrated a consistent association between
ambient particulate air pollution and increased risk of hospital admissions and deaths for …

Epidemiological evidence from ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is needed to clarify
the associations of particulate air pollution with blood pressure and potential lag patterns …

Background: Diabetes increases the risk of hypertension and orthostatic hypotension and
raises the risk of cardiovascular death during heat waves and high pollution episodes …

BACKGROUND Fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) air pollution is a leading cause of global
cardiovascular mortality. A key mechanism may be PM2. 5-induced blood pressure (BP) …

Background The role of oxidative stress and systemic inflammation on the association
between personal exposures to ambient fine particulate matter≤ 2.5 μm in diameter (PM …

Particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter of< 2.5 μm (PM 2.5) is associated with blood
pressure and hemodynamic changes. Blunted nocturnal blood pressure dipping is a major …

Objectives We explored the association between acute changes in daily mean pulmonary
artery (PA) and right ventricular (RV) pressures and concentrations of ambient fine …

Introduction Although physical activity (PA) has multiple health benefits, the inhaled dose of
fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) during PA may increase. The trade-off between harmful …
