Daily changes in fine particulate matter are associated with acute myocardial infarction hospitalizations: an individual-level time-stratified case-crossover study in Zhongshan, China
Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) imposes a substantial and growing burden globally. Short-term exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has been linked to AMI mortality, yet most studies have focused on absolute pollutant concentrations.
