Particulate Oxidative Burden as a Predictor of Exhaled Nitric Oxide in Children with Asthma

BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies have provided strong evidence that fine particulate matter (PM2.5; aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2.5 μm) can exacerbate asthmatic symptoms in children. Pro-oxidant components of PM2.5 are capable of directly generating reactive oxygen species. Oxidative burden is used to...
