Biological effects of diesel exhaust inhalation. III cardiovascular function

CONCLUSIONS: Based on the results of this study, we suggest that exposure to DE generated by a Tier 2 compliant diesel engine generates acute effects on biomarkers indicative of cardiovascular dysfunction. Recovery occurs quickly with most measures of vascular/cardiovascular function returning to baseline levels by 7d following exposure.PMID:38466202 | DOI:10.1080/08958378.2024.2327364
