Abstract

An intervention reducing particle exposure was conducted in 27 apartments of 50+ year olds in Denmark. Two recirculating particle filtration units were installed in each apartment. They operated for two weeks in active filtration mode and for two weeks in sham mode in a randomized cross-over design. The intervention resulted in 54% reduction of PM2.5 (median value) and 47% reduction of modified average concentration of UFP. Improved microvascular function was associated with actual PM2.5 reduction, suggesting a positive effect of filtration at substantial exposure contrasts.
