Figure 3.

Figures 3A (1-month mean PM subscript 2.5) and 3B (12-month mean PM subscript 2.5) plot delta per 10 micrograms per cubic meter, ranging from negative 6 to 6 (y-axis) for models 1, 2, and 3 across CD8 plus T, CD4 plus T, nature killer, B, monocyte, and granulocyte (x-axis).

Pooled difference in leukocyte composition (Δ; %) per 10-μg/m3 increase in (A) 1- and (B) 12-month mean PM2.5 concentrations among n=8,457 participants, Women’s Health Initiative (1993–2002) and Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (1990–1995) study. Model 1 adjusted for race/ethnicity, age, sex (in ARIC), randomly assigned treatment group (in WHI), mean temperature, mean dew point, mean barometric pressure, season, and subpopulation-specific covariates. Model 2 also adjusted for individual-level education and neighborhood socioeconomic status. Model 3 additionally adjusted for smoking status, alcohol use, body mass index, and physical activity.
