Mortality burden attributable to PM1 in Zhejiang province, China

Reads0

TLDR
The notion that smaller size fractions of PM have a more toxic mortality impacts is supported, which suggests to develop strategies to prevent and control PM1 in China, such as to foster strict regulations for automobile and industrial emissions.

Emergency Admissions for Cardiovascular and Respiratory Diseases and the Chemical Composition of Fine Particle Air Pollution

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the association between hospital admission for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and respiratory disease and the chemical components of PM2.5 in the United States.

Higher Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Associated with Smaller Size-Fractioned Particulate Matter

TL;DR: No nationwide studies have examined the associations between mortality risk and PM1 (PM with an aerodynamic diameter of <1 μm) due to the scarcity of monitoring data of PM1, but on the basis of newly released data, a nationwide study is warranted.

Differentiating the effects of ambient fine and coarse particles on mortality from cardiopulmonary diseases: A nationwide multicity study

TL;DR: This study indicates that short-term exposure to PM2.5 could be an important risk factor of mortality from IHD and COPD, and substantial cardiopulmonary mortality could be avoidable by reducing daily PM 2.5 concentrations.

Conducting Meta-Analyses in R with the metafor Package

TL;DR: The metafor package provides functions for conducting meta-analyses in R and includes functions for fitting the meta-analytic fixed- and random-effects models and allows for the inclusion of moderators variables (study-level covariates) in these models.

A review on the human health impact of airborne particulate matter

TL;DR: The basic evidence on the health effects of particulate matter is summarized and an in-depth analysis is provided to address the implications for policy-makers so that more stringent strategies can be implemented to reduce air pollution and its health effects.

Distributed lag non-linear models

TL;DR: A modelling framework that can simultaneously represent non-linear exposure–response dependencies and delayed effects, based on the definition of a ‘cross-basis’, which is implemented in the package dlnm within the statistical environment R.
