Abstract

Ambient air pollution could be associated with poor mental health. Black carbon (BC) has been highlighted as a crucial component of particulate matter; however, its isolated role independent from the total particulate matter mass has been poorly studied. Our study aimed to examine the associations between long-term exposure to particulate matter with a diameter
