Feasibility and results of joint ambulatory monitoring of exposure to particulate matter pollution and lung function in children in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire: a cross-sectional observational study
Ambulatory spirometry and PM<sub>2.5</sub> measurements are feasible with portable devices in African children. High PM<sub>2.5</sub> exposure and individual variability in lung function highlight the need for further research on the respiratory effects of air pollution in children.
