Global and regional trends in particulate air pollution and attributable health burden over the past 50 years

Long-term exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM _2.5 , mass of particles with an aerodynamic dry diameter of < 2.5 μm) is a major risk factor to the global burden of disease. Previous studies have focussed on present day or future health burdens attributed to ambient PM _2.5 . Few studies ha...
