Journal ArticleDOI
Health impact assessment of active transportation: A systematic review
Natalie Mueller,David Rojas-Rueda,Tom Cole-Hunter,Audrey de Nazelle,Evi Dons,Regine Gerike,Thomas Götschi,Luc Int Panis,Sonja Kahlmeier,Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen +9 more
TL;DR: Effects of increased PA contributed the most to estimated health benefits, which strongly outweighed detrimental effects of traffic incidents and air pollution exposure on health, irrespective of geographical context.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic review and meta-analysis of reduction in all-cause mortality from walking and cycling and shape of dose response relationship
Paul Kelly,Paul Kelly,Sonja Kahlmeier,Thomas Götschi,Nicola Orsini,Justin Richards,Nia Roberts,Peter Scarborough,Charlie Foster +8 more
TL;DR: The analysis shows that walking and cycling have population-level health benefits even after adjustment for other physical activity (PA), and public health approaches would have the biggest impact if they are able to increase walked and cycling levels in the groups that have the lowest levels of these activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Health Relevance of Ambient Particulate Matter Characteristics: Coherence of Toxicological and Epidemiological Inferences
TL;DR: Progress toward integration of toxicological and epidemiological research results concerning the role of specific physicochemical properties, and associated sources, in the adverse impact of ambient particulate matter (PM) on public health is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Can air pollution negate the health benefits of cycling and walking
Marko Tainio,Audrey de Nazelle,Thomas Götschi,Sonja Kahlmeier,David Rojas-Rueda,Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen,Thiago Hérick de Sá,Paul Kelly,James Woodcock +8 more
TL;DR: PA benefits of active travel outweighed the harm caused by air pollution in all but the most extreme air pollution concentrations, and the results were sensitive to dose–response function (DRF) assumptions for PM2.5 and PA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Term Effects of Ambient Air Pollution on Lung Function: A Review
TL;DR: There is strong support for air pollution effects on the development of lung function in children and adolescents but further research is needed on the relevance of specific pollution sources, particularly with regard to susceptible populations and relevant exposure periods throughout life.
