Long-term exposure to wildfire smoke PM2.5 and survival of older lung cancer patients—a retrospective, registry-based cohort study

Summary Background Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has been identified as a key risk factor of lung cancer incidence and survival. PM2.5 from wildfire smoke is an increasingly important contributor to total PM2.5 in the United States driven by climate change and potentially more toxic than non-wildfire PM2.5 due to its...

Chemical composition of fine particulate matter and all-cause mortality of older lung cancer patients.

Ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a proven human lung carcinogen associated with lung cancer incidence. However, the relative toxicity of the various chemical components of PM2.5 and their joint association with all-cause mortality following lung cancer diagnosis remain unclear. We conducted a cohort study of...
