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

BACKGROUND: Population-based studies have estimated health risks of short-term exposure to fine particles using mass of PM(2.5) (particulate matter ≤ 2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter) as the indicator. Evidence regarding the toxicity of the chemical components of the PM(2.5) mixture is limited. OBJECT...
