Effect modification of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) related hospital admissions by temperature in Thailand: A nationwide time-series study
The study suggested that short-term exposure to PM<sub>2.5</sub> increased the risk of all-cause and cause-specific hospital admission, and the risk was higher for moderate and high temperature. In the context of climate change, it is vital to develop strategies to identify and mitigate the health impacts of PM<sub>2.5</sub> and increased temperature.
