Changing risk factors that contribute to premature mortality from ambient air pollution between 2000 and 2015

Changing risk factors that contribute to premature mortality from ambient air pollution between 2000 and 2015

Exposure to ambient air pollution is a major global health risk factor. Using recently updated hazard ratio functions, we estimate that the global premature mortality burden attributable to ambient PM _2.5 and O _3 exposure increased by about 30% and 17%, respectively, from 2000 to 2015. We analyzed...
