Short term association between ozone and mortality: global two stage time serie...
Vicedo-Cabrera, Ana M.; Sera, Francesco; Liu, Cong; Armstrong, Ben; Milojevic, A.i.; Guo, Yuming; Tong, Shilu; Lavigne, Eric; Kyselý, Jan; Urban, AlešObjective: To assess short term mortality risks and excess mortality associated with exposure to ozone in several cities worldwide. Design: Two stage time series analysis. Setting: 406 cities in 20 countries, with overlapping periods between 1985 and 2015, collected from the database of Multi-City Multi-Country Collaborative Research Network. Population: Deaths for all causes or for external causes only registe...
Ambient particulate air pollution and daily mortality in 652 cities
Liu, Cong; Chen, Renjie; Sera, Francesco; Vicedo-Cabrera, Ana M.; Guo, Yuming; Tong, Shilu; Coelho, Micheline S.Z.S.; Saldiva, Paulo H.N.; Lavigne, EricThe systematic evaluation of the results of time-series studies of air pollution is challenged by differences in model specification and publication bias. We evaluated the associations of inhalable particulate matter (PM) with an aerodynamic diameter of 10 μm or less (PM10) and fine PM with an aerodynamic diameter of 2.5 μm or less (PM2.5) with daily all-cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory mortality across m...
Predicted temperature-increase-induced global health burden and its regional va...
Lee, Jae Young; Kim, Ho; Gasparrini, Antonio; Armstrong, Ben; Bell, Michelle L.; Sera, Francesco; Lavigne, Eric; Abrutzky, Rosana; Tong, ShiluAn increase in the global health burden of temperature was projected for 459 locations in 28 countries worldwide under four representative concentration pathway scenarios until 2099. We determined that the amount of temperature increase for each 100 ppm increase in global CO2 concentrations is nearly constant, regardless of climate scenarios. The overall average temperature increase during 2010-2099 is largest ...
