Modification of heat-related effects on mortality by air pollution concentration, at small-area level, in the Attica prefecture, Greece

Abstract Background The independent effects of short-term exposure to increased air temperature and air pollution on mortality are well-documented. There is some evidence indicating that elevated concentrations of air pollutants may lead to increased heat-related mortality, but this evidence is not...
