Article Synopsis
- The study compares indoor and outdoor air quality's impact on lung function in patients with asthma and COPD, monitoring fine particulate matter (PM) levels for a year.
- Over 5 million data points were collected, revealing that indoor PM sources (like tobacco, fireplaces, and cooking) led to higher concentrations exceeding WHO guidelines.
- Results show a link between ambient PM and decreased lung function, highlighting the importance of addressing indoor air quality in public health strategies and the need for personalized approaches based on living conditions.
