Presented at Annual Conference of the International Society of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology, Utrecht, NETHERLANDS, October 09 - 13, 2016.
Impact/Purpose:
The inability to explain the city-to-city heterogeneity in PM2.5 mortality risk estimates observed in multi-city studies remains a key uncertainty in the examination of the relationship between short-term PM2.5 exposures and mortality.One possibility is city-specific differences in overall population exposure to PM2.5.
