Abstract
The objective of this study was to estimate the health effects attributed to PM2.5 exposure in southwest of Iran. In order to estimate HA-CVD, HA-RD, LC-M, I-As in children, RAD, and WDL, the exposure-response function method was used. The annual mean of PM2.5 regularly exceeded 5.26-8.5 times from 2021 annual limit value established by the WHO. The dominance of PM2.5 in PM2.5/PM10 ratio decreased -34.6% from 2015 to 2020. The results showed that the risks of HA-CVD (- 51. 9), HA-RD (- 68.7%), LC-M (- 43.6%), I-As (- 52.1%), RAD (- 56.8%), and WDL (- 58.7%) declined per 105 inhabitants between 2018 and 2020 . Reducing the particulate emissions from industries and road traffic led to lower exposure to PM2.5, which will be effective in decrease of mortality rate.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Environmental Health Research ( IJEHR ) is devoted to the rapid publication of research in environmental health, acting as a link between the diverse research communities and practitioners in environmental health. Published articles encompass original research papers, technical notes and review articles. IJEHR publishes articles on all aspects of the interaction between the environment and human health. This interaction can broadly be divided into three areas: the natural environment and health – health implications and monitoring of air, water and soil pollutants and pollution and health improvements and air, water and soil quality standards; the built environment and health – occupational health and safety, exposure limits, monitoring and control of pollutants in the workplace, and standards of health; and communicable diseases – disease spread, control and prevention, food hygiene and control, and health aspects of rodents and insects. IJEHR is published in association with the International Federation of Environmental Health and includes news from the Federation of international meetings, courses and environmental health issues.
