Fine particle sources and adverse events in infants using home cardiorespiratory monitors
Altmetrics
Abstract
Background: Recent research has provided a wealth of knowledge of the contributions of air pollution to adverse cardiovascular and respiratory events in sensitive populations. Source apportionment methods can be used to apportion and identify ambient sources of air pollution, which can then be used to estimate health effects of air pollution sources. Infants are thought to be particularly susceptible to air pollutant sources; however, little research has been conducted. The objective of this study was to examine the associations of ambient source apportioned fine particulate matter with bradycardia ...
