Study | Design and location | Population | Ambient exposure | Outcome(s)c | Main Findings/effect Estimates |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Tonne et al. 2012 (33)a | Prospective Cohort, London, United Kingdom (2002–2004) | 2347 Adults Mean Age: 61 years | Predicted weekly average PM10 and PM10 Oxidative Potential (PM10*OP) at the center of each participants’ postal code of residence using a geostatistical spatial-temporal model | Carotid Intima-Media Thickness | Change Per 1.5/m3 PM10*OP 1.2% (95% CI: 0.2, 2.2) |
Strak et al. 2012 (34)b | Panel Study (Repeated Measures) Utrecht, Netherlands | 31 Adults Mean Age: 22 years | 5-hour exposure to PM10 oxidative potential at five different locations | FENO FVC | Effect estimates for FENO ranged from −0.45% to 0.11% per 38.71 change in PM10*OP depending on the co-pollutant included in the model |
