Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) and Chronic Kidney Disease [PDF]
AbstractThe impact of ambient particulate matter (PM) on public health has become a great global concern, which is especially prominent in developing countries. For health purposes, PM is typically defined by size, with the smaller particles having more health impacts. Particles with a diameter <2.5 μm are called PM2.5. Initial research studies have

Understanding sources of fine particulate matter in China [PDF]
Fine particulate matter has been a major concern in China as it is closely linked to issues such as haze, health and climate impacts. Since China released its new national air quality standard for fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) in 2012, great efforts have been put into reducing its concentration and meeting the ...

A new estimator for population total in the presence of missing data under unequal probability sampling without replacement: A case study on fine particulate matter in Northern Thailand [PDF]
The issue of fine particulate matter in Thailand, especially in Northern Thailand, is an urgent problem that needs to be solved because of potential harm to human health. Prior estimates of fine particulate matter help planning how to reduce it.

Global Estimates and Long-Term Trends of Fine Particulate Matter Concentrations (1998-2018).
Exposure to outdoor fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a leading risk factor for mortality. We develop global estimates of annual PM2.5 concentrations and trends for 1998-2018 using advances in satellite observations, chemical transport modeling, and ...

A review of respirable fine particulate matter (PM2.5)-induced brain damage
Respirable fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has been one of the most widely publicized indicators of pollution in recent years. Epidemiological studies have established a strong association between PM2.5, lung disease, and cardiovascular disease.
