Differential Health Impacts of Short-Term Particulate Matter Exposure in Arid and Semi-Arid Regions: A Scoping Review.

While the estimated associations between short‐term exposures to PM 2.5 and morbidity were generally slightly higher (and marginally statistically significant) for men compared to women, heterogeneity analyses found no statistically significant difference in respiratory (RRR = 1.00, I 2 = 33%) or cardiovascular morbidity risk (RRR = 1.00, I 2 = 0%) by sex (Table 2 ).
