Potential role of ultrafine particles in associations between airborne particle mass and cardiovascular health.
TL;DR: The need for and methods of UFP exposure assessment are discussed, which may lead to systemic inflammation through oxidative stress responses to reactive oxygen species and thereby promote the progression of atherosclerosis and precipitate acute cardiovascular responses ranging from increased blood pressure to myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI
