Figure 3. Association between daily hospital referral for venous thromboembolism (VTE) and coarse particulate matter (PM10-2.5) concentration at different time-lags.

Figure 3

The association was estimated by using distributed lag non-linear models with VTE risk as outcome and time-lags expressed as the number of previous days. Only the current-day (lag 0) PM2.5-10 levels presented a significant association with VTE risk.
