Evidence of effect and exposure-response functions for PM2.5 and NO2 linked to morbidity

Oudin, Anna LU ; Flanagan, Erin LU orcid ; Malmqvist, Ebba LU orcid and Forsberg, Bertil (2022)
Abstract
Health impact assessments (HIA) have largely focused on mortality; this report, therefore, examines and evaluates which morbidity impacts are appropriate to include in HIAs. The task was assigned by Swedish Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the original report (written in Swedish) was performed by Anna Oudin (AO), Erin Flanagan (EF), and Ebba Malmqvist (EM). The original report also includes a section on mortality conducted by Bertil Forsberg (BF), but this is not included here due to time constraints for translation. The outcomes to be evaluated were pre-defined by researchers AO, EM and BF during the first project meeting. Among adults, these were chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cardiovascular diseases, including... (More)
Health impact assessments (HIA) have largely focused on mortality; this report, therefore, examines and evaluates which morbidity impacts are appropriate to include in HIAs. The task was assigned by Swedish Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the original report (written in Swedish) was performed by Anna Oudin (AO), Erin Flanagan (EF), and Ebba Malmqvist (EM). The original report also includes a section on mortality conducted by Bertil Forsberg (BF), but this is not included here due to time constraints for translation. The outcomes to be evaluated were pre-defined by researchers AO, EM and BF during the first project meeting. Among adults, these were chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cardiovascular diseases, including ischemic heart disease (IHD) and stroke, diabetes, dementia, cognitive decline. For outcomes during pregnancy and childhood, we included preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, low birth weight, premature births, lung function, asthma, bronchitis, infections, autism, cognition, and type 1 diabetes.
