Two-pollutant model with PM2.5 and PM10

Adj* B-coefficientAdj* 95% CIP value
PM2.5−9.38−8.05 to −10.380.163
PM10−11.27−10.07 to −12.590.036
  • Adjusted relative changes (%) with their 95% CI in maximal fall in FEV1

  • *Adjusted for humidity, temperature, age-squared, gender, BMI-squared and atopic state.

  • BMI, body mass index; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 s; PM10, particulate matter < 10 µm; PM2.5, particulate matter < 2.5 µm.
