Short-term effects of different PM2.5 ranges on daily all-cause mortality in Jinan, China
To examine the effects of different PM(2.5) concentration ranges on daily all-cause mortality, 8768 all-cause deaths were recorded in the database of the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University. Data of air pollutants (PM(2.5) and O(3)) concentration were provide...

Sumario: | To examine the effects of different PM(2.5) concentration ranges on daily all-cause mortality, 8768 all-cause deaths were recorded in the database of the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University. Data of air pollutants (PM(2.5) and O(3)) concentration were provided by the Jinan Environment Monitoring Center. The relative risk of all-cause mortality was assessed using a quasi-Poisson regression model after adjusting for confounding factors. The concentrations of PM2.5 were divided into four ranges 0–35 μg/m(3); 35–75 μg/m(3); 75–115 μg/m(3); 115–150 μg/m(3). There was no significant relationship between PM2.5 exposure and all-cause deaths in individuals aged < 60 years. However, for individuals aged ≥ 60 years, there was a significant positive association between exposure concentrations and all-cause deaths within the ranges 0–35 μg/m(3), 35–75 μg/m(3), and 115–150 μg/m(3) with a mortality increase of 1.07 (1.01, 1.13), 1.03 (1.00, 1.05), and 1.05 (1.01, 1.08), respectively. When the population aged ≥ 60 years was stratified into gender groups, exposure to PM2.5 in the range 0–35 μg/m(3) increased the mortality risk in men but not women. All-cause mortality in women, but not men, increased significantly with exposure to PM2.5 in the ranges of 35–75, 75–115, and 115–150 μg/m(3). |
