Daily respiratory mortality and PM10 pollution in Mexico City.
We would like to thank FILLEUL et al. [1] for their thoughtful comments on our paper [2] which discusses some limitations of time-series analyses. The main objective of our study was to evaluate the impact of air pollution on respiratory mortality accounting for primary and underlying causes of death, as accounting for primary causes only may underestimate the real impact of air pollution on re...
متن کاملDaily respiratory mortality and PM10 pollution in Mexico City: importance of considering place of death.
Significant associations have been reported between particles with a 50% cut-off aerodynamic diameter of 10 mm (PM10) and ozone ambient concentrations, and daily number of deaths from respiratory causes. The aim of the present study was to assess such associations among elderly (> or =65 yrs) residents of Mexico City. Ambient air pollution data were provided by the Metropolitan Monitoring Netwo...
متن کاملOzone, suspended particulates, and daily mortality in Mexico City.
To investigate acute, irreversible effects of exposure to ozone and other air pollutants, the authors examined daily death counts in relation to air pollution levels in Mexico City during 1990-1992. When considered singly in Poisson regression models accounting for periodic effects, the rate ratio for total mortality associated with a 100-ppb increment in 1-hour maximum ozone concentration was ...
متن کاملAir pollution and daily mortality in a city with low levels of pollution.
The concentration-response relationship between daily ambient inhalable particle (particulate matter less than or equal to 10 micro m; PM(10)) concentrations and daily mortality typically shows no evidence of a threshold concentration below which no relationship is observed. However, the power to assess a relationship at very low concentrations of PM(10) has been limited in studies to date. The...
