Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in adults exposed to fine particles from a coal mine fire

2020-10-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Introduction</h4> In 2014 the Hazelwood open cut coal mine burned for six weeks, exposing nearby residents to fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ). The long-term health consequences are being evaluated as part of the Hazelwood Health Study (HHS). These analyses explore the association between PM 2.5 and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). <h4>Methods</h4> A sample of 346 exposed, and 1...
