Long-term exposure to PM2.5 and multidimensional poverty in middle aged and older people in China: a quasi-experimental study
This study demonstrates that long-term PM<sub>2.5</sub> exposure increases the risk of respiratory diseases and reduces lung function, exacerbating the multidimensional poverty burden among middle-aged and older adults. Thus, we recommend incorporating air quality indicators into poverty reduction standards and establishing a dynamic monitoring system.
