TL;DR: PM2.5 exposure may be related to additional causes of death than the five considered by the GBD and that incorporation of risk information from other, nonoutdoor, particle sources leads to underestimation of disease burden, especially at higher concentrations.

Air pollution and emergency department visits for cardiac and respiratory conditions: a multi-city time-series analysis
David M. Stieb,David M. Stieb,Mieczyslaw Szyszkowicz,Brian H. Rowe,Judith A. Leech,Judith A. Leech +5 more
TL;DR: In this large multicenter analysis, daily average concentrations of CO and NO2 exhibited the most consistent associations with ED visits for cardiac conditions, while ozone exhibited the largest associations with visits for respiratory conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Air Pollution and Emergency Department Visits for Suicide Attempts in Vancouver, Canada
TL;DR: Positive and statistically significant associations among carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2), and particulate matter (PM10) for all suicide attempts in the cold period are confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Air pollution and daily emergency department visits for depression.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that ED visits for depressive disorder correlate with ambient air pollution is supported, and that a large majority of this pollution results from combustion of fossil fuels (e.g. in motor vehicles).
Journal ArticleDOI
Air pollution and emergency department visits for depression in Edmonton, Canada
TL;DR: The findings provide support for the hypothesis that ED visits for depression are associated with exposure to ambient air pollution.
