Description
Highlights: • DECH was implemented to capture PM2.5-OCVs associations among hypertension. • Comparative risk assessment using DECH, daily mean and hourly peak PM2.5. • Hourly-peak and daily mean PM2.5 measurements were more strongly associated with OCV. • PM2.5 had significant lagged effects of at least 2 days on hypertensive OCVs. The association of ambient fine particulate pollution with daily outpatient clinic visits (OCV) for hypertension in China remains to be investigated.
