Many epidemiological studies provide evidence of an association between ambient
particles, measured as PM10, and daily mortality. Most of these studies have been …

Many epidemiological studies provide evidence of an association between airborne
particles, measured as PM10 (particulate matter less than 10 μm in diameter), and daily …

Some recent epidemiologic studies suggest a stronger effect of fine particles (PM2. 5) than
of coarser particulate matter. To examine the support for such a differential effect, the authors …

Fine particles and coarse particles are defined in terms of the modal structure of particle size
distributions typically observed in the atmosphere. Differences between the various mdes …

Several epidemiologic studies have reported associations between respiratory disease and
particulate matter less than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM2. 5) or fine particles. However, since …

To investigate the possible relationship between airborne particulate matter and mortality,
we developed regression models of daily mortality counts using meteorological covariates …

Recent epidemiologic studies have consistently reported increased daily mortality
associated with exposures to particulate air pollution. Currently, particulate mass is …

Many epidemiologic studies provide evidence of an association between daily counts of
mortality and ambient particulate matter< 10 μm in diameter (PM10). Relatively few studies …

The authors investigated whether short-term effects of fine particulate matter with an
aerodynamic diameter≤ 2.5 μm (PM2. 5) on risk of cardiovascular and respiratory …

Fine particle concentration (ie, particles< 2.5 microm in aerodynamic diameter; PM2. 5), but
not coarse particle concentration, was associated with increased mortality in six US cities …
