Association of microvascular function with a one interquartile range increase of ambient and personal pollutants. Exposures were averaged across 1 day, 3 days, 5 days, and 7 days preceding each subject’s reactive hyperemia index (RHI) measurement (a) and the PM components in three different size-fractions for exposures averaged across 5 days preceding each subject’s RHI measurement (b). BC: black carbon; DTT: dithiothreitol; EC: elemental carbon; OA: Organic acids; OC: organic carbon; PAHs: polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; PM particulate matter; ROS: reactive oxygen species; WS: water-soluble
