Ambient Particulate Air Pollution and Daily Mortality in 652 Cities

Modeling of the associations between mortality and air pollution data from 652 cities, mostly in the northern hemisphere, showed that concentrations of inhalable and fine particulate matter were associated with daily all-cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory mortality. An interactive map allows the...

Description
Summary:Modeling of the associations between mortality and air pollution data from 652 cities, mostly in the northern hemisphere, showed that concentrations of inhalable and fine particulate matter were associated with daily all-cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory mortality. An interactive map allows the reader to explore the geographic distribution of PM, and a Quick Take summarizes the findings in a short video.
