Geographic Variation in the Association between Ambient Fine Particulate Matter (PM(2.5)) and Term Low Birth Weight in the United States

BACKGROUND: Studies on the association between prenatal exposure to fine particulate matter ≤ 2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter (PM(2.5)) and term low birth weight (LBW) have resulted in inconsistent findings. Most studies were conducted in snapshots of small geographic areas and no national study exis...
