Fine Particulate Air Pollution and Hospital Admission for Cardiovascular and Respiratory Diseases
Francesca Dominici,Roger D. Peng,Michelle L. Bell,Luu Pham,Aidan McDermott,Scott L. Zeger,Jonathan M. Samet +6 more
TL;DR: Short-term exposure to PM2.5 increases the risk for hospital admission for cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and was higher in counties located in the Eastern region of the United States, which included the Northeast, the Southeast, the Midwest, and the South.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fine Particulate Air Pollution and Mortality in 20 U.S. Cities, 1987–1994
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of five major outdoor-air pollutants on daily mortality rates in 20 of the largest cities and metropolitan areas in the United States from 1987 to 1994 were assessed, including PM10, ozone, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ozone and short-term mortality in 95 US urban communities, 1987-2000.
TL;DR: A statistically significant association between short-term changes in ozone and mortality on average for 95 large US urban communities, which include about 40% of the total US population, indicates that this widespread pollutant adversely affects public health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure measurement error in time-series studies of air pollution: concepts and consequences.
Scott L. Zeger,Duncan C. Thomas,Francesca Dominici,Jonathan M. Samet,Joel Schwartz,Douglas W. Dockery,Aaron Cohen +6 more
TL;DR: This paper developed a systematic conceptual formulation of the problem of measurement error in epidemiologic studies of air pollution and then considered the consequences within this formulation, and presented new simple analyses of data on exposures of particulate matter < 10 microm in aerodynamic diameter from the Particle Total Exposure Assessment Methodology Study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Air Pollution and Mortality in the Medicare Population.
Qian Di,Yan Wang,Antonella Zanobetti,Yun Wang,Petros Koutrakis,Christine Choirat,Francesca Dominici,Joel Schwartz +7 more
TL;DR: In the entire Medicare population, there was significant evidence of adverse effects related to exposure to PM2.5 and ozone at concentrations below current national standards.
