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

The mass concentration of atmospheric particulate matter (PM) has been systematically
used in epidemiological studies as an indicator of exposure to air pollutants, connecting PM …

Abstract “Air Pollution and Health: Bridging the Gap from Sources to Health Outcomes,” an
international specialty conference sponsored by the American Association for Aerosol …

Increased mortality and diverse morbidities are globally associated with exposure to
ambient air pollution (AAP), cigarette smoke (CS), and household air pollution (HAP). The …

Air pollution contributes to the premature deaths of millions of people each year around the
world, and air quality problems are growing in many developing nations. While past policy …

An emerging hypothesis in the field of air pollution is that oxidative stress is one of the
important pathways leading to adverse health effects of airborne particulate matter (PM). To …

Chemical components of air pollutant exposures that induce oxidative stress and
subsequent inflammation may be partly responsible for associations of cardiovascular …

Results of recent research show that particulate matter (PM) composition and size vary
widely with both space and time. Despite the variability in PM characteristics, which are …

Air pollution is associated with increased cardiovascular and pulmonary morbidity and
mortality. The mechanisms of air pollution‐induced health effects involve oxidative stress …

Results from epidemiology studies have shown statistical associations between ambient air
particulate matter (PM) concentrations and mortality/morbidity, particularly among …
