Association between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and infant mortality in a North Carolina birth cohort (2003–2015)
We observed differing associations of PM<sub>2.5</sub> exposure with infant mortality across higher versus lower PM<sub>2.5</sub> concentrations. Research findings suggest the importance of accounting for long-term trends of decreasing PM<sub>2.5</sub> concentrations in future research.
