Epidemiological evidence of effects of coarse airborne particles on health.
Studies on health effects of airborne particulate matter (PM) have traditionally focused on particles <10 microm in diameter (PM10) or particles <2.5 microm in diameter (PM2.5). The coarse fraction of PM10, particles >2.5 microm, has only been studied recently. These particles have different sources and composition compared with PM2.5. This paper is based on a systematic review of studies that ...
متن کاملAre there sensitive subgroups for the effects of airborne particles?
Recent studies have shown that particulate air pollution is a risk factor for hospitalization for heart and lung disease; however, little is known about what subpopulations are most sensitive to this pollutant. We analyzed Medicare hospital admissions for heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorders (COPD) and pneumonia in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, between 1985 and 1994. We exam...
متن کاملExposure of churchgoers to airborne particles.
Particle mass and number measurements in a church indicate significant increases of indoor particle concentrations during the burning of incense. Generally, varying concentration regimes can be attributed to different "modes of indoor activity" and emission sources. While periods of candle burning are negligible concerning particle concentrations, increases by a factor of 6.9 and 9.1 during inc...
متن کاملCharacterisation of airborne particles from rail traffic
Since the investigation of wear particles in rail transport started in late-1910s, the high mass concentration of these particles has raised worries among researchers concerned with air quality. However, effective action has yet to be taken because of lack of relevant knowledge. This thesis provides applicable information for the airborne wear particles in rail transport. Some aspects of their ...
متن کاملAnalysing the health effects of simultaneous exposure to physical and chemical properties of airborne particles
BACKGROUND Airborne particles are a complex mix of organic and inorganic compounds, with a range of physical and chemical properties. Estimation of how simultaneous exposure to air particles affects the risk of adverse health response represents a challenge for scientific research and air quality management. In this paper, we present a Bayesian approach that can tackle this problem within the f...
