Background: The International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified outdoor air
pollution (fine particulate matter [PM2. 5]) as a Group 1 lung carcinogen in humans. We …

Airborne fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) has been classified as a Group I carcinogen
leading to lung cancer in humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer …

Outdoor air pollution is made up of particulate matter (PM) and hundreds of chemicals from
natural sources and human-related activities. 1, 2 In October 2013 the International Agency …

Background: Previous research has identified an association between fine particulate matter
(PM 2.5) air pollution and lung cancer. Most of the evidence for this association, however, is …

Background Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) air pollution has been linked to
increased risk of mortality, especially cardiopulmonary and lung cancer mortality. It is …

Abstract The International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified PM 2.5 (fine
particulate matter, PM 2.5) as a lung cancer carcinogen in humans. We estimated the …

Rationale: There is compelling evidence that acute and chronic exposure to ambient fine
particulate matter (PM2. 5) air pollution increases cardiopulmonary mortality. However, the …

Objective To explore the association between Particulate Matter (PM) 2.5 (particles with an
aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 µm) and lung cancer mortality rates and to estimate the …

Purpose Air pollution and smoking are associated with various types of mortality, including
cancer. The current study utilizes a publicly accessible, nationally representative cohort to …

PM2. 5 is a major environmental health problem and a risk factor for lung cancer. Exposure
to PM2. 5 has attracted growing public concern nationwide. Here, we aimed to estimate the …
