No study has compared the respiratory effects of environmental and occupational particulate exposure in healthy adults. We estimated, by a systematic review and meta-analysis, the associations between short term exposures to fine particles (PM In total, 33 and 14 studies were included in the qualitative synthesis and meta-analyses, respectively. In environmental studies, a 10 µg/m Both occupational and environmental short-term exposures to fine particles are associated with reductions in FEV
