Finding F-0066

“With per 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 concentrations, cardiovascular mortality was increased by 13% (95% CI: 1.08, 1.19), respiratory mortality was increased by 10% (95% CI: 1.02, 1.18).”

Structure

Factor: Particulate matter (PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀)
Outcome: Cardiovascular disease (CVD)
Study design: systematic review and meta-analysis of 38 publications (35 cohort and 3 case-control studies) on long-term particulate matter exposure in low- and middle-income countries; preprint (Research Square), not peer reviewed (class 2)
Effect: HR 1.13 (1.08–1.19) per 10
Averaging time: long-term exposure
Sample: 38 studies
Caveat: the sentence prints the effect as an increase of 13 % with the confidence interval on the ratio scale; the paper's tables report hazard ratios; endpoint is mortality

A Finding records what one published document states, verbatim and with its page. It is not a conclusion of Coridum; see the Claims that build on it.
