A new study conducted by researchers at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, has examined the health risks associated with exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5). The study collected data on mortality rates in 347 cities across 15 countries and regions and compared the health effects of both observed and estimated PM2.5 exposures. The findings showed that short-term exposure to PM2.5 was associated with an increased risk of mortality from all causes, respiratory issues, and cardiovascular diseases. The study concluded that the model-estimated global PM2.5 product is reliable and applicable for use in epidemiological studies. [Extracted from the article] |
