Heat waves and cause-specific mortality at all ages.
Xavier Basagaña,Claudio Sartini,Jose Barrera-Gómez,Payam Dadvand,J. Cunillera,Bart Ostro,Jordi Sunyer,Mercedes Medina-Ramón +7 more
TL;DR: Heat contributes to an increase in mortality from several causes, and in infants, the first week of life is the most critical window of vulnerability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sasha Khomenko,Marta Cirach,Evelise Pereira-Barboza,Natalie Mueller,Jose Barrera-Gómez,David Rojas-Rueda,Kees de Hoogh,Kees de Hoogh,Gerard Hoek,Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a quantitative health impact assessment for the year 2015 to estimate the effect of air pollution exposure (PM2·5 and NO2) on natural-cause mortality for adult residents (aged ≥20 years) in 969 cities and 47 greater cities in Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences on the effect of heat waves on mortality by sociodemographic and urban landscape characteristics
Yihan Xu,Payam Dadvand,Jose Barrera-Gómez,Claudio Sartini,Marc Marí-Dell’Olmo,Carme Borrell,Mercè Medina-Ramón,Jordi Sunyer,Xavier Basagaña +8 more
TL;DR: Sociodemographic and urban landscape characteristics are associated to mortality risk during heat waves and are useful to build heat vulnerability maps by identifying the most heat-vulnerable areas by mapping heat vulnerability.
Journal ArticleDOI
The association of air pollution and greenness with mortality and life expectancy in Spain: A small-area study
Carmen de Keijzer,David Agis,Albert Ambros,Gustavo Arévalo,José María Baldasano,Stefano Bande,Jose Barrera-Gómez,Joan Benach,Marta Cirach,Payam Dadvand,Stefania Ghigo,Èrica Martínez-Solanas,Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen,Ennio Cadum,Xavier Basagaña +14 more
TL;DR: Air pollution concentrations were associated to important reductions in life expectancy and greenness, a protective effect on mortality and longer life expectancy was only found in areas with lower socioeconomic status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Green space and mortality in European cities: a health impact assessment study.
Evelise Pereira Barboza,Marta Cirach,Sasha Khomenko,Tamara Iungman,Natalie Mueller,Jose Barrera-Gómez,David Rojas-Rueda,Michelle C. Kondo,Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate the number of premature deaths among adult residents that could be prevented in cities in 31 European countries, if the WHO recommendation for universal access to green space was achieved.
