TLDR
Air quality modeling and cost-benefits analysis of emission reduction scenarios and corresponding health benefits in meeting the site-specific annual PM2.5 concentrations in China are expected to be 24.0%, 44.8%, 70.8, and 85.2% of the total current mortalities when the PWA PM3.5 meets the WHO IT-1,IT-2, IT-3, and AQG, respectively.

Seasonal variation of window opening behaviors in two naturally ventilated hospital wards

TL;DR: Logistic regression models in different seasons (cooling, transition and heating seasons) are developed to predict the window opening/closing state and are verified to be promisingly adaptable with results of accuracy bigger than 70%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Socioeconomic factors and regional differences of PM2.5 health risks in China.

TL;DR: This research enriches PM2.5-health-risk theory and provides some theoretical support for PM2- health-risk diversity management in China.

Health loss attributed to PM2.5 pollution in China's cities: Economic impact, annual change and reduction potential

TL;DR: The spatial distribution and temporal variation characteristics of health loss in Chinese cities based on ground-monitoring PM2.5 concentration data and annual real-time population data are highlighted to provide a measurable assessment of health losses to policymakers for effective allocating their efforts on air quality improvement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating health burden and economic loss attributable to short-term exposure to multiple air pollutants in China

TL;DR: It is suggested that the adverse health effects attributable to short-term exposure to air pollutant should not be neglected in China and each city should develop air pollution prevention and control measures based on existing scientific evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial association between outdoor air pollution and lung cancer incidence in China

TL;DR: The influence of SO2 and PM2.5 on lung cancer should be focused on in north China, and in the south, the impact of O3 and CO as well as their interaction with SO2 need to be paid more attention.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimated deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs; sum of years lived with disability [YLD] and years of life lost [YLL]) attributable to the independent effects of 67 risk factors and clusters of risk factors for 21 regions in 1990 and 2010.

An Association between Air Pollution and Mortality in Six U.S. Cities

TL;DR: It is suggested that fine-particulate air pollution, or a more complex pollution mixture associated with fine particulate matter, contributes to excess mortality in certain U.S. cities.

TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factor study 2013 (GBD 2013) as discussed by the authors provides a timely opportunity to update the comparative risk assessment with new data for exposure, relative risks, and evidence on the appropriate counterfactual risk distribution.

Global, regional, and national life expectancy, all-cause mortality, and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes of death, 1980–2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015

TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease 2015 Study provides a comprehensive assessment of all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes in 195 countries and territories from 1980 to 2015, finding several countries in sub-Saharan Africa had very large gains in life expectancy, rebounding from an era of exceedingly high loss of life due to HIV/AIDS.
