Abstract
In recent years, the impact of PM2.5 on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has become a new concern. In the present review, we firstly summarized the domestic and international cohort studies about the effects of PM2.5 on the incidence and mortality of T2DM. Secondly, we discussed population-based studies on the variations of physical and chemical indicators among T2DM patients with PM2.5 concentration. Thirdly, we took land-use regression model and satellite remote sensing as two examples to review PM2.5 exposure assessment methods. Finally, we pointed out current research limitations in this field in China, especially on prospective cohort studies, aiming to provide an insight for further studies on the effects of PM2.5 on T2DM.
