Cardiovascular effects in patrol officers are associated with fine particulate matter from brake wear and engine emissions
(East Carolina University, 2004-12-09)
Background: Exposure to fine particulate matter air pollutants (PM2.5) affects heart rate variability parameters, and levels of serum proteins associated with inflammation, hemostasis and thrombosis. This study investigated ...
Coarse Particulate Matter (PM2.5 - 10) Affects Heart Rate Variability, Blood Lipids, and Circulating Eosinophils in Adults with Asthma
(East Carolina University, 2007-05)
INTRODUCTION: We investigated whether markers of airway and systemic inflammation, as well as heart rate variability (HRV) in asthmatics, change in response to fluctuations in ambient particulate matter (PM) in the coarse ...
