Introduction The relative risk (RR) of long-term exposure to PM 2.5 in lung cancer mortality
(LCM) may vary spatially in China. However, previous studies applying global regression …

Objectives: Although a number of epidemiologic studies have examined the association
between air pollution and mortality, data limitations have resulted in fewer studies of …

Abstract Background Although eastern Asian countries are exposed to high levels of air
pollution, the impact of long-term exposures to fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) air pollution …

Many studies have reported that PM 2.5 was associated with mortality, but these were
criticized for unmeasured confounding, not using causal modeling, and not focusing on …

This study gives the first-time evidence for China that the geographical heterogeneity of the
acute effects of outdoor PM10 can be partially explained by differences in indoor exposure …

Severe and persistent haze accompanied by high concentrations of fine particulate matter
(PM 2.5) has become a great public health concern in urban China. However, research on …

Background The acute effects of exposure to ambient particulate matter with an
aerodynamic diameter≤ 1 μm (PM 1) on cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality remain …

Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM) results in adverse health outcomes. Although this is
a global concern, residents of China may be particularly vulnerable due to frequent severe …

Background Most previous assessments of the hazardous effects attributable to fine
particulate matter (PM 2· 5) exposure have used ambient PM 2· 5 as an exposure metric …

High concentrations of PM 2.5 in China have an adverse impact on human health and
present a major problem for air quality control. Here we evaluate premature deaths …
