TL;DR: In this paper , the authors estimate the exposure-lag response between air pollution exposure and risk for ischemic heart disease (IHD) and stroke incidence by applying distributed lag non-linear models (DLNMs).
Journal ArticleDOI
A health economic assessment of air pollution effects under climate neutral vehicle fleet scenarios in Stockholm, Sweden
Hedi Katre Kriit,Johan Nilsson Sommar,Bertil Forsberg,Stefan Åström,Mikael Svensson,Christer Johansson +5 more
TL;DR: In most studies, it is assumed that EVs contribution to urban air pollution is zero due to no tailpipe emissions as discussed by the authors. But this assumption may not be the case, since EVs are widely promoted as beneficial for climate and health.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The authors used location-specific quasi-Poisson regression models with an interaction term between the cross-basis term for mean temperature and quartiles of TV to obtain heat-mortality associations under each quartile of TV, and then pooled estimates at the country, regional, and global levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Near-Source Risk Functions for Particulate Matter Are Critical When Assessing the Health Benefits of Local Abatement Strategies.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the potential health benefits of three air pollution abatement strategies: electrification of light vehicles, reduced use of studded tires, and introduction of congestion charges in Stockholm and Gothenburg, using different ERFs.
