Boxes with dashed borders contain brief guidance text for completing the entries for new variables.

Scope

This includes a verbal definition of the spatial, temporal, and other limits
(system boundaries) of the variable. The scope is defined according to the use
purpose of the assessment(s) that the variable belongs to.

Exposure-response function for short-term (acute) exposure to ambient air particulate matter (PM) with an aerodynamic diameter < 10 µm and hospital admissions due to cardiovascular causes.

Dimensions possibly relevant for the variable

  • Age of exposed population
  • Country/other geographic area

Definition

Data

Description of the data used for obtaining the value of the variable
(e.g. measurement data; mathematical method and its parameters).
Please include references (preferably using the <ref></ref> tags)
and links to original data, as appropriate.

APHEIS study of European cities [1]

  • 0.6% (95% Cl 0.3%, 0.9%) increase in cardiac hospital admissions per 10 µg/m3 PM10 in all ages

Causality

List of upstream variables.
The variables can be listed used descriptive (free-format) names or unambiguous identifiers
(e.g. Analytica IDs).

Unit

Unit in which the result is expressed.

Relative risk (RR) per 10 µg/m3 increase in exposure

Formula

Algebra or other explicit methods if possible
(e.g. Analytica code between the ''<anacode></anacode>'' delimiters).

Result

If possible, a numerical expression or distribution.
Age group RR 95% Cl
All ages 1.006 1.003, 1.009
