Particulate Matter (Fine Particle) and Urologic Diseases [PDF]
International Neurourology Journal, 2017 Particulate matter (PM) has been found to damage vital body organs, including the lungs and heart, through vascular damage and oxidative stress. Recently, renal function and chronic urologic diseases have also been found to be related to PM.

Hormesis for Fine Particulate Matter (PM 2.5)
Dose-Response, 2012 The hypothesis of hormesis – that substances that harm health at high exposures can reduce risks below background at low exposures, e.g., if they activate defenses without overwhelming them – becomes important for practical policy making if it holds for ...
