Association between emergency admission for peptic ulcer bleeding and air pollution: a case-crossover analysis in Hong Kong's elderly population Linwei Tian, PhD, Hong Qiu, PhD, Shengzhi Sun, MPhil, Hilda Tsang, MPhil, King-Pan Chan, MPhil, Prof Wai K Leung, MD The Lancet Planetary Health Volume 1, Issue 2, Pages e74-e81 (May 2017) DOI: /S (17) Copyright © 2017 The Author(s).

Figure 1 Map of Hong Kong showing the location of the general or background air pollution monitoring stations and Hong Kong Observatory NO2, SO2, and O3 concentrations were averaged from ten stations except TM, whereas PM2·5 concentrations were computed from three stations (TW, YL, and TC) during the study period of 2005–10. PM2·5=particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less than 2·5 μm. NO2=nitrogen dioxide. SO2=sulfur dioxide. O2=ozone.
