Journal ArticleDOI
Confounding and effect modification in the short-term effects of ambient particles on total mortality: Results from 29 European cities within the APHEA2 project
Klea Katsouyanni,Giota Touloumi,Evangelia Samoli,Alexandros Gryparis,Alain Le Tertre,Yannis Monopolis,Giuseppe Rossi,Denis Zmirou,Ferran Ballester,Azedine Boumghar,Hugh Ross Anderson,Bogdan Wojtyniak,Anna Páldy,Rony Braunstein,Juha Pekkanen,Christian Schindler,Joel Schwartz +16 more
TL;DR: The results confirm those previously reported on the effects of ambient particles on mortality and show that the heterogeneity found in the effect parameters among cities reflects real effect modification, which is explained by specific city characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short term effects of air pollution on health: a European approach using epidemiologic time series data: the APHEA protocol.
Klea Katsouyanni,Joel Schwartz,C Spix,Giota Touloumi,Denis Zmirou,Antonella Zanobetti,Bogdan Wojtyniak,Judith M. Vonk,Aurelio Tobias,A Ponka,Sylvia Medina,L Bacharova,Hugh Ross Anderson +12 more
TL;DR: This methodology enabled results from many different European settings to be considered collectively and represented the best available compromise between feasibility, comparability, and local adaptibility when using aggregated time series data not originally collected for the purpose of epidemiological studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Air pollution and daily admissions for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in 6 European cities: Results from the APHEA project
H R Anderson,C Spix,Sylvia Medina,Jan P. Schouten,J Castellsague,Giuseppe Rossi,Denis Zmirou,Giota Touloumi,Bogdan Wojtyniak,A Ponka,L Bacharova,Joel Schwartz,Klea Katsouyanni +12 more
TL;DR: The results confirm that air pollution is associated with daily admissions for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in European cities with widely varying climates, and the evidence points to a causal relationship.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating the Exposure-Response Relationships between Particulate Matter and Mortality within the APHEA Multicity Project
Evangelia Samoli,Antonis Analitis,Giota Touloumi,Joel Schwartz,Hugh Ross Anderson,Jordi Sunyer,Luigi Bisanti,Denis Zmirou,Judith M. Vonk,Juha Pekkanen,Pat Goodman,Anna Páldy,Christian Schindler,Klea Katsouyanni +13 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the association between ambient particles and mortality in the cities included in the present analysis, and in the range of the pollutant common in all analyzed cities, could be adequately estimated using the linear model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-Term Effects of Ambient Particles on Cardiovascular and Respiratory Mortality
Antonis Analitis,Klea Katsouyanni,Konstantina Dimakopoulou,Evangelia Samoli,Aristidis K. Nikoloulopoulos,Yannis Petasakis,Giota Touloumi,Joel Schwartz,Hugh Ross Anderson,Koldo Cambra,Francesco Forastiere,Denis Zmirou,Judith M. Vonk,Luke Clancy,B Kriz,János Bobvos,Juha Pekkanen +16 more
TL;DR: The estimated effects of ambient particle concentrations on cardiovascular and respiratory mortality, from 29 European cities, within the Air Pollution and Health: a European Approach (APHEA2) project are appropriate for health impact assessment and standard-setting procedures.
