Efforts to understand and mitigate the health effects of particulate matter (PM) air pollution
have a rich and interesting history. This review focuses on six substantial lines of research …

The health effects of air pollution have been subject to intense study in recent years.
Exposure to pollutants such as airborne participate matter and ozone has been associated …

Air pollution is a heterogeneous, complex mixture of gases, liquids, and particulate matter.
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated a consistent increased risk for cardiovascular …

Oxidative stress is a potential mechanism of action for particulate matter (PM) toxicity and
can occur when the body's antioxidant capacity cannot counteract or detoxify harmful effects …

Background—Pollution by particulates has been consistently associated with increased
cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, the mechanisms responsible for these …

Air pollution has been considered a hazard to human health. In the past decades, many
studies highlighted the role of ambient airborne particulate matter (PM) as an important …

Since the manufacture and use of nanoparticles are increasing, humans are more likely to
be exposed occupationally or via consumer products and the environment. However, so far …
