Heat wave, fine particulate matter, and cardiovascular disease mortality: A time-stratified case-crossover study in Shenzhen, China
Heat wave and PM<sub>2.5</sub> exposures individually and synergistically contributed to increased risks of CVD mortality. Our findings indicate that reducing exposure to both heat wave and PM<sub>2.5</sub> may yield significant health benefits and prevent a significant portion of premature deaths from CVDs.
