Associations between ultrafine and fine particles and mortality in five central European cities - Results from the UFIREG study

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Evidence on health effects of ultrafine particles (UFP) is still limited as they are usually not monitored routinely. The few epidemiological studies on UFP and (cause-specific) mortality so far have reported inconsistent results. The main objective of the UFIREG project was to investigate the short-term associations between UFP and fine particulate matter (PM) b 2.5 μm(PM2.5) and daily (cause-specific)mortality in five European Cities. Wenalso examined the effects of PM b 10 μm (PM10) and coarse particles (PM2.5–10).nMethods: UFP (20–100 nm), PM and meteorological data were measured in Dresden and Augsburg (Germany), Prague (Czech Republic), Ljubljana (Slovenia) and Chernivtsi (Ukraine). Daily counts of natural and cardiorespiratory mortalitywere collected for all five cities. Depending on data availability, the following study periods were chosen: Augsburg and Dresden 2011–2012, Ljubljana and Prague 2012–2013, Chernivtsi 2013–Marchn2014. The associations between air pollutants and health outcomes were assessed using confounder-adjusted Poisson regression models examining single (lag 0–lag 5) and cumulative lags (lag 0–1, lag 2–5, and lag 0–5). City-specific estimates were pooled using meta-analyses methods. nResults: Our results indicated a delayed and prolonged association between UFP and respiratory mortality (9.9% [95%-confidence interval: 6.3%; 28.8%] increase in association with a 6-day average increase of 2750 particles/cm3 (average interquartile range across all cities)). Cardiovascular mortality increased by 3.0% [2.7%; 9.1%] andn4.1% [0.4%; 8.0%] in association with a 12.4 μg/m3 and 4.7 μg/m3 increase in the PM2.5- and PM2.5–10-averages of lag 2–5.
