Fine Particulate Air Pollution and Mortality: Response to
                Enstrom's Reanalysis of the American Cancer Society Cancer
                Prevention Study II Cohort

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
The first analysis of long-term exposures to air pollution and
risk of mortality using the American Cancer Society Cancer
Prevention Study II (ACS CPS-II) cohort was published in
1995.1 Subsequently, extensive independent reanalysis2 and
multiple extended analyses3-7 were conducted. These studies
have consistently demonstrated that exposure to fine particulate
matter air pollution (PM2.5) is associated with increased
risk of mortality, especially cardiopulmonary or cardiovascular
disease mortality. A recent analysis by Enstrom, based on early
data from the ACS CPS-II cohort, reports no significant relationship
between PM2.5 and total mortality.8 The author asserts
that the original analyses, reanalyses, and the extended analyses
found positive PM2.5–mortality relationships because of
selective use of CPS-II and PM2.5 data.
