Triggering of Transmural Infarctions, but Not Nontransmural Infarctions, by Ambient Fine Particles

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have reported increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI) after increases in ambient particulate matter (PM) air pollution concentrations in the hours and days before MI onset. OBJECTIVES: We hypothesized that acute increases in fine PM with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2.5 μ...
