He, C; Breitner-Busch, S; Huber, V; Chen, K; Zhang, S; Gasparrini, A; Bell, M; Kan, H; Royé, D; Armstrong, B; Schwartz, J; Sera, F; Vicedo-Cabrera, AM"Objective: To examine the associations between characteristics of daily rainfall (intensity, duration, and frequency) and all cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory mortality. Design: Two stage time series analysis. Setting: 645 locations across 34 countries or regions. Population: Daily mortality data, comprising a total of 109 954 744 all cause, 31 164 161 cardiovascular, and 11 817 278 respiratory deaths fr...
Ozone-related acute excess mortality projected to increase in the absence of cl...
Domingo, NGG; Fiore, AM; Lamarque, J-F; Kinney, PL; Jiang, L; Gasparrini, A; Breitner, S; Lavigne, E; Madureira, J; Masselot, P; Silva, SDNPDShort-term exposure to ground-level ozone in cities is associated with increased mortality and is expected to worsen with climate and emission changes. However, no study has yet comprehensively assessed future ozone-related acute mortality across diverse geographic areas, various climate scenarios, and using CMIP6 multi-model ensembles, limiting our knowledge on future changes in global ozone-related acute mort...
Impact of population aging on future temperature-related mortality at different...
Chen, K; de Schrijver, E; Sivaraj, S; Sera, F; Scovronick, N; Jiang, L; Roye, D; Lavigne, E; Kyselý, J; Urban, A; Schneider, A; Huber, V; Madureira, JOlder adults are generally amongst the most vulnerable to heat and cold. While temperature-related health impacts are projected to increase with global warming, the influence of population aging on these trends remains unclear. Here we show that at 1.5 °C, 2 °C, and 3 °C of global warming, heat-related mortality in 800 locations across 50 countries/areas will increase by 0.5%, 1.0%, and 2.5%, respectively; amon...
Ambient carbon monoxide and daily mortality: a global time-series study in 337 ...
Chen, K; Breitner, S; Wolf, K; Stafoggia, M; Sera, F; Vicedo-Cabrera, AM; Guo, Y; Tong, S; Lavigne, E; Matus, P; Valdés, N; Kan, H; Jaakkola, JJKBackground. Epidemiological evidence on short-term association between ambient carbon monoxide (CO) and mortality is inconclusive and limited to single cities, regions, or countries. Generalisation of results from previous studies is hindered by potential publication bias and different modelling approaches. We therefore assessed the association between short-term exposure to ambient CO and daily mortality in a ...
