Finding F-0070

“For 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 concentrations, stroke morbidity increase 9% (95% CI:1.06,1.12), I2=78%, P<0.001.”

Structure

Factor: Particulate matter (PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀)
Outcome: Stroke
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studies) on long-term particulate matter exposure in low- and middle-income countries; preprint (Research Square), not peer reviewed (class 2)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 1.09 (1.06–1.12) per 10
Averaging time: long-term exposure
Sample: 38 studies
Caveat: the sentence prints the effect as an increase of 9 % with the confidence interval on the ratio scale; the paper's tables report hazard ratios

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.
