目前的知识表明，在较高的暴露水平下，颗粒物与心血管和呼吸系统死亡率之间的关系趋于平缓。1 Newell及其同事的系统审查5涵盖了PM2·5平均水平从56微克/立方米到179微克/立方米(PM10为43-142微克/立方米)的城市。作者本可以进一步研究在这个大范围内暴露-反应关系的形状，揭示平均浓度在多大程度上对跨研究报告的实质性异质性做出了贡献。
Present knowledge suggests the relation between particulate matter and cardiovascular and respiratory mortality flattens out at higher exposure levels. 1 The systematic review by Newell and colleagues5 covered cities with mean PM2· 5 levels ranging from 56 µg/m³ to 179 µg/m³ (43–142 µg/m³ for PM10). The authors could have taken their analysis further to investigate the shape of the exposure–response relationship over this broad range, shedding light on the extent to which mean concentration contributed to the substantial heterogeneity reported across studies.
