Journal ArticleDOI

Air pollution and lung cancer incidence in 17 European cohorts : Prospective analyses from the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE)

TL;DR: The meta-analyses showed a statistically significant association between risk for lung cancer and PM10 and PM2·5, and no association between lungcancer and nitrogen oxides concentration or traffic intensity on the nearest street.
Journal ArticleDOI

Particulate matter properties and health effects: consistency of epidemiological and toxicological studies.

TL;DR: There is a need for better exposure assessments in epidemiological and experimental investigations, whereas experimental data would benefit from an improved comparability of studies, and combined experimental and epidemiological investigations may also help answer some of the unresolved issues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Health effects of residential wood smoke particles: the importance of combustion conditions and physicochemical particle properties

TL;DR: Overall, the reviewed literature regarding the physicochemical properties of wood smoke particles provides a relatively clear picture of how these properties vary with the combustion conditions, whereas particle emissions from specific classes of combustion appliances are less well characterised.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of silver nanoparticles in testicular cells.

TL;DR: Results suggest that silver nano- and submicron-particles (AgNPs) are more cytotoxic and cytostatic compared to TiO(2)-NPs, causing apoptosis, necrosis and decreased proliferation in a concentration- and time-dependent manner.
