Air pollution as one of the ravages of our modern societies is primarily linked to urban
centers, industrial activities, or road traffic. These atmospheric pollutants have been …

Ambient air pollution is a leading environmental cause of morbidity and mortality globally
with most of the outcomes of cardiovascular origin. While numerous mechanisms are …

Air pollution is an important cause of non-communicable diseases globally with particulate
matter (PM) as one of the main air pollutants. PM is composed of microscopic particles that …

In vitro studies suggest that reactive oxygen species contribute to the cardiopulmonary
toxicity of particulate air pollution. To evaluate the ability of particulate air pollution to …

A range of epidemiological studies in the 1990s showed that exposure to ambient
particulate matter (PM) is associated with adverse health effects in the respiratory system …

Researchers have been studying the respiratory health effects of ambient air pollution for
more than 70 years. While air pollution as a whole can include gaseous, solid, and liquid …

Poor air quality is globally the largest environmental health risk. Epidemiological studies
have uncovered clear relationships of gaseous pollutants and particulate matter (PM) with …

Epidemiologic studies have reported causal relationships between exposures to high
concentrations of ambient air particles (AAP) and increased morbidity in individuals with …

Recent studies have suggested a link between inhaled particulate matter (PM) exposure
and increased mortality and morbidity associated with pulmonary and cardiovascular …

The classic toxicology paradigm between exposure and response provides the justification
for accurate measurement of exposure to underpin good epidemiological studies aimed at …
