Evaluation of neural reflex activation as a potential mode of action for respiratory and cardiovascular effects of fine particulate matter

CONCLUSIONS: Further studies are needed to determine whether neural reflex activation is the MoA by which PM2.5 could cause either respiratory or cardiovascular morbidities in humans, particularly at the ambient concentrations associated with total mortality in epidemiology studies.PMID:38488087 | DOI:10.1080/08958378.2024.2324033
