Early in 2006, Dr. BAUMGARTNER and Dr. ZHANG have started their exploration in rural Yunnan. They recruited school-aged children from 180 rural households cooking with biomass in Yunnan, China. The associations between personal PM_2.5 and BC exposures and BP were investigated using one- and two- pollutant multivariate regression models. Interestingly, their new findings do not support their previous study of older women in this setting, showing a positive relationship between PM exposure and BP.
