Finding F-0088

“Overall, the revised WHO daily limit of PM2.5 (15 μg/m3) was exceeded for 298 days and the corresponding EU legislative limit (25 μg/m3) was exceeded for 186 days, which was 81.6% and 53.8% of the study period, respectively.”

Structure

Factor: Particulate matter (PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀)
Population: five patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (average age 50 years, 40 % male)
Setting: city (ambient), GR (one year)
Study design: panel study: five patients with asthma or COPD monitored over a whole year with 24 h indoor and outdoor PM2.5 measurements, daily peak expiratory flow and biweekly symptom reports (linear mixed effect models, generalized estimating equations) (class 3)
Effect: share-above 53.8
Averaging time: daily
Sample: 5 participants
