Exposure to ambient PM10 may increase the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung function decline. We evaluated the long-term exposure to PM10 and its relationship with COPD prevalence and lung function in Parisian subway workers. Participants were randomly selected from a 15,000-subway worker cohort. Individual annual external exposure to PM10 (ePM10) was estimated using a company-specific job-exposure-matrix based on PM10 measurements conducted between 2004 and 2019 in the Parisian subway network. Mean annual inhaled PM10 exposure (iPM10) was modeled as function of ePM10 exposure, inhalation rate, and filtration efficiency of the respiratory protection used. COPD diagnosis was performed in March-May 2021 based on post-bronchodilator spirometry. The relationship between iPM10 and outcomes was assessed using logistic and linear regression models, adjusted for exposure duration and potential confounders. Amongst 254 participants with complete data, 17 were diagnosed as COPD. The mean employment duration was 23.2 ± 7.3years, with annual mean ePM10 of 71.8 ± 33.7 μg/m ³ and iPM10 of 0.59 ± 0.27 μg/shift, respectively. A positive but statistically non-significant association was found for COPD prevalence with iPM10 (OR = 1.034, 95%-CI = 0.781; 1.369, per 100 ng/shift) and ePM10 (OR = 1.029, 95%-CI = 0.879; 1.207, per 10 μg/m ³ ). No decline in lung function was associated with PM10 exposure. However, forced expiratory volume during the first second and forced vital capacity lower than normal were positively associated with exposure duration (OR = 1.125, 95%-CI = 1.004; 1.260 and OR = 1.171, 95%-CI = 0.989; 1.386 per year, respectively). Current smoking was strongly associated with COPD prevalence (OR = 6.85, 95%-CI = 1.87; 25.10) and most lung function parameters. This is the first study assessing the relationship between long-term exposure to subway PM10 and respiratory health in subway workers. The risk estimates related with subway PM10 exposure are compatible with those related to outdoor PM10 exposure in the large recent studies. Large cohorts of subway workers are necessary to confirm these findings.
