Ambient fine particulate matter and daily mortality: a comparative analysis of ...
Yu, W; Huang, W; Gasparrini, A; Sera, F; Schneider, A; Breitner, S; Kyselý, J; Schwartz, J; Madureira, J; Gaio, V; Guo, YL; Xu, R; Chen, G; Yang, ZBackground: Model-estimated air pollution exposure products have been widely used in epidemiological studies to assess the health risks of particulate matter with diameters of ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5). However, few studies have assessed the disparities in health effects between model-estimated and station-observed PM2.5 exposures. Methods: We collected daily all-cause, respiratory and cardiovascular mortality data in 34...
Global and Regional Cardiovascular Mortality Attributable to Nonoptimal Tempera...
Hundessa, S; Huang, W; Zhao, Q; Wu, Y; Wen, B; Alahmad, B; Armstrong, B; Gasparrini, A; Sera, F; Tong, S; Madureira, J; Kyselý, J; Schwartz, JBackground: The association between nonoptimal temperatures and cardiovascular mortality risk is recognized. However, a comprehensive global assessment of this burden is lacking. Objectives: The goal of this study was to assess global cardiovascular mortality burden attributable to nonoptimal temperatures and investigate spatiotemporal trends. Methods: Using daily cardiovascular deaths and temperature data from...
Mortality risks associated with floods in 761 communities worldwide: time serie...
Yang, Z; Huang, W; McKenzie, JE; Xu, R; Yu, P; Ye, T; Wen, B; Gasparrini, A; Armstrong, B; Tong, S; Lavigne, E; Madureira, J; Kyselý, J; Guo, Y; Li, SObjective To evaluate lag-response associations and effect modifications of exposure to floods with risks of all cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory mortality on a global scale. Design Time series study. Setting 761 communities in 35 countries or territories with at least one flood event during the study period. Participants Multi-Country Multi-City Collaborative Research Network database, Australian Cause o...
