This article briefly summarizes the epidemiology of the health effects of fine particulate air
pollution, provides an early, somewhat speculative, discussion of the contribution of …

In the last 10 years there has been an abundance of new epidemiological studies on health
effects of particulate air pollution. The overall evidence suggests that fine particulate …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the adverse effects of particulate air pollution on
health. The overall epidemiologic evidence is consistent with the premise that particulate air …

Efforts to understand and mitigate the health effects of particulate matter (PM) air pollution
have a rich and interesting history. This review focuses on six substantial lines of research …

This article summarizes epidemiological evidence of health effects of particulate air
pollution. Acute exposure to elevated levels of particulate air pollution has been associated …

There are now more than 150 published epidemiologic studies of health effects of
particulate air pollution and dozens of related literature reviews. This article explores the …

This article evaluates the dynamic exposure-response relationship between particulate
matter air pollution (PM) and mortality risk by integrating epidemiological evidence from …

The 1996 EPA Air Quality Criteria for Particulate Matter relied in large part upon
epidemiologic studies of the short-term (acute) effects of inhalable particulate matter (PM) …

Epidemiological studies of the past decades have provided a strong body of evidence that
elevated levels of ambient particulate air pollution (PM) are associated with increased …

Background—Epidemiologic studies have linked long-term exposure to fine particulate
matter air pollution (PM) to broad cause-of-death mortality. Associations with specific …
