Ambient paniculate matter (PM) is always the major pollutant that affects the air quality in most cities in China in recent years.PM pollution with high concentration levels in Chinese cities mostly originates from coal combustion,vehicle exhaust and open sources,which is different from those in Europe and US.Previous studies found that both short-term and long-term exposure to particulate matter resulted in various adverse health effects.This review summarized the major study methods and progress of the health effects of PM through comprehensive studies in environmental science,exposure science,environmental epidemiology,and environmental toxicology,which aims to offer the reference to studies of PM health effects and the revision of environmental air quality standard in China.At present in China,PM10 pollution has not been effectively controlled,and the fine particle (PM2.5) begins to raise public concern.Systematical studies concerning the health effects caused by PM pollution need to be conducted in different areas in China.%大气颗粒物一直是影响我国大多数城市空气质量的首要污染物,且呈现出与欧美不同的煤烟、机动车尾气以及开放源复合型污染并存的高浓度污染态势,已有研究发现颗粒物的短期或长期暴露均会对人体产生不良的健康效应.本文从环境科学、暴露科学、环境流行病学和环境毒理学研究等方面系统综述了大气颗粒物健康效应研究的方法和进展,可为我国的大气颗粒物健康效应研究与大气颗粒物环境质量标准的修订提供方法学参考和经验借鉴.目前我国PM10污染尚未得到有效控制,细颗粒物(PM2.5)的污染也已引起关注,建议在不同区域开展空气污染健康效应的系统研究.
