Individual Effect Modifiers of Dust Exposure Effect on Cardiovascular Morbidity.
High concentrations of particulate matter (PM) air pollution have been associated with death and hospital admissions due to cardiovascular morbidity. However, it is not clear a) whether high levels of non-anthropogenic PM from dust storms constitute a health risk; and b) whether these health risks a...
