Population studies suggest that persons with diabetes are more sensitive to the effects of particulate matter (PM) air pollution. However, the biological mechanisms of a possible prothrombotic effect underlying this enhanced susceptibility remain largely unknown. The authors hypothesized that exposure to PM causes prothrombotic changes in persons with diabetes, possibly via systemic inflammation.
