Fine Particulate Matter Constituents and Cardiopulmonary Mortality in a Heavily Polluted Chinese City
Background: Although ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5; particulate matter ≤ 2.5 µm in aerodynamic diameter) has been linked to adverse human health effects, the chemical constituents that cause harm are unknown. To our knowledge, the health effects of PM2.5 constituents have not been reported...
