Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term air pollution exposure and cardio- respiratory mortality: a review.

TL;DR: In subjects with lower education and obese subjects a larger effect estimate for mortality related to fine PM was found, though the evidence for differences related to education has been weakened in more recent studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Air pollution and lung cancer incidence in 17 European cohorts : Prospective analyses from the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE)

TL;DR: The meta-analyses showed a statistically significant association between risk for lung cancer and PM10 and PM2·5, and no association between lungcancer and nitrogen oxides concentration or traffic intensity on the nearest street.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of land-use regression models to assess spatial variation of outdoor air pollution

TL;DR: Land-use regression (LUR) models have been increasingly used in the past few years to assess the health effects of long-term average exposure to outdoor air pollution as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the association between natural-cause mortality and long-term exposure to several air pollutants, such as PM2.5, nitrogen oxides, and NOx.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of Land Use Regression Models for PM2.5, PM2.5 Absorbance, PM10 and PMcoarse in 20 European Study Areas; Results of the ESCAPE Project

TL;DR: Careful selection of monitoring sites, examination of influential observations and skewed variable distributions were essential for developing stable LUR models, which are used to estimate air pollution concentrations at the home addresses of participants in the health studies involved in ESCAPE.
