Non-Linear Concentration-Response Relationships between Ambient Ozone and Daily Mortality
BACKGROUND Ambient ozone (O3) concentration has been reported to be significantly associated with mortality. However, linearity of the relationships and the presence of a threshold has been controversial. OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to examine the concentration-response relationship and threshold of the association between ambient O3 concentration and non-accidental mortality ...
متن کاملOzone and Daily Mortality in Shanghai, China
BACKGROUND Controversy remains regarding the relationship between ambient ozone and mortality worldwide. In mainland China, the largest developing country, there has been no prior study investigating the acute effect of O3 on death risk. Given the changes in types of air pollution from conventional coal combustion to the mixed coal combustion/motor vehicle emissions in China's large cities, it ...
متن کاملConcentration–Response Function for Ozone and Daily Mortality: Results from Five Urban and Five Rural U.K. Populations
BACKGROUND Short-term exposure to ozone has been associated with increased daily mortality. The shape of the concentration-response relationship-and, in particular, if there is a threshold-is critical for estimating public health impacts. OBJECTIVE We investigated the concentration-response relationship between daily ozone and mortality in five urban and five rural areas in the United Kingdom...
متن کاملThe concentration-response relation between PM(2.5) and daily deaths.
Particulate air pollution at commonly occurring concentrations is associated with daily deaths. Recent attention has focused on the shape of the concentration-response curve, particularly at low doses. Several recent articles have reported that particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter < or = 10 microm (PM(10)) was associated with daily deaths with no evidence of a threshold. These reports h...
متن کاملThe concentration-response relation between air pollution and daily deaths.
Studies on three continents have reported associations between various measures of airborne particles and daily deaths. Sulfur dioxide has also been associated with daily deaths, particularly in Europe. Questions remain about the shape of those associations, particularly whether there are thresholds at low levels. We examined the association of daily concentrations of black smoke and SO(2) with...
