Exposure to ambient air pollution is a major global health risk factor. Using recently updated
hazard ratio functions, we estimate that the global premature mortality burden attributable to …

Since the publication of the first epidemiological study to establish the connection between
long‐term exposure to atmospheric pollution and effects on human health, major efforts …

Air pollution is a major global health concern, with substantial impacts in high, middle and
low income countries throughout the world. More than 85% of the world's population lives in …

Environmental pollution in the era of sustained economic development is an inevitable
occurrence. However, the rising levels of pollutant emissions hamper air quality, hence …

Background Air pollution has been associated with increased mortality. However, updated
evidence from cohort studies with detailed information on various risk factors is needed …

Ambient air pollution is one of the leading environmental risk factors to human health,
largely offsetting economic growth. This study evaluated health burden and cost associated …

Air pollution by fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) and ozone (O 3) has increased strongly with
industrialization and urbanization. We estimate the premature mortality rates and the years …

Background Long-term exposure to ambient air pollution has been associated with
premature mortality, but associations at concentrations lower than current annual limit …

Recent risk assessments have characterized the overall burden of recent PM2. 5 and ozone
levels on public health, but generally not the variability of these impacts over time or by …

Background The health impacts of ambient air pollution impose large costs on society.
Although all people are exposed to air pollution, the older population (ie, those aged≥ 60 …
