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
Definition
Data
- 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
Causality
Unit
Annual change in symptom days per person per 10 µg/m3 exposure
Formula
Result
| Age group | Population | LRS days | 95% Cl |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5-14 | General population | 1.86 | 0.92, 2.77 |
| Adult | People with chronic respiratory symptoms | 1.30 | 0.15, 2.43 |
