Abstract
The purpose of this work assignment was to identify and review recent information regarding the qualitative relationship between exposure to toxic air pollutants and adverse human health effects. Two literature searches were performed, the first aimed at identifying recent (1993 to present) epidemiologic studies of air pollution adverse effects, and the second aimed at identifying studies by key researchers in the field identified through discussions with EPA and through the results of the first literature search. Among the articles and reports provided by EPA and those identified in the computer searches, over 165 were designated for procurement. Thirty-four articles meeting this criterion were reviewed and their results and limitations briefly summarized. Detailed summaries were prepared of twelve of these studies which either described effects of ambient air toxics exposures which had not previously been documented, described effects in geographic regions or populations which had not previously been studied, or which employed novel approaches for assessing toxic air pollutant effects.
