Systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease risk is associated with long‐term exposure to fine particulate matter

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a possible trigger of systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs). We investigated SARDs risk related to long‐term exposure to PM2.5 and its components (ammonium, black carbon, mineral dust, sea salt, nitrate, sulfate, organic matter), the composition of which may affect toxicity.
