Meta-analysis on short-term exposure to ambient ultrafine particles and respiratory morbidity
Conclusions
Our study indicates UFP effects on respiratory health among children, and during the warm season across all ages at longer lags. The limited evidence and the large heterogeneity of previous reports call for future exposure assessment harmonisation and expanded research.
