Abstract
Chronic respiratory diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, interstitial lung diseases, and pneumoconiosis, are the third leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for 4 million deaths in 2019. Inhaled particulate matter (PM) from environmental and occupational sources introduces exogenous pro-oxidants to the respiratory space, increasing the risk of pulmonary disease development and exacerbation.
