Abstract
⺠We investigated the effects of smaller particles on cardiovascular mortality in Beijing, China. ⺠Emphasis was on whether associations are due to particle number, mass, or surface area. ⺠Particle number concentrations in the size range 0.03-0.1 μm showed most consistent associations. ⺠Surface and mass concentrations may be modified by air mass origin. ⺠Effects of particle number concentrations were not modified by air mass origin.
