Scope

Exposure-response function for short-term (acute) exposure to ambient air particulate matter (PM) with an aerodynamic diameter < 10 µm and lower respiratory symptoms (LRS). Lower respiratory symptoms include wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and cough.

Dimensions and boundaries relevant for the variable

  • Age of exposed population
  • Health status of the exposed population
  • Country/other geographic area

Data

CAFE CBA, CAFE-NEEDS[1][2]

  • Annual change of 1.30 (95% Cl 0.15, 2.43) in symptom days per adult with chronic respiratory symptoms per 10 µg/m3 PM10
    • Approximately 30% of adult population are estimated to have chronic respiratory symptoms
  • Annual change of 1.86 (95% Cl 0.92, 2.77) in symptom days per child (general population) aged 5-14 per 10 µg/m3 PM10
