Abstract:
Objective To estimate the adverse effects of total suspended particles exposure on cardiovascular disease mortality.Methods Cardiovascular disease mortality and TSP monitoring data from1996to2000in Shenyang were collected.The association between TSP concentration and the mortality of cardiovascular diseases was analyzed using Poisson regression model adjusted for season,temperature and humidity variation using a parametric method.Results It was found that each50?g /m 3 increment of TSP was associated with an OR of1.0122(95%CI =1.0036-1.0209)of cardiovascular disease mortality in the general population,an OR of1.0278(95%CI =1.0160-1.0398)in the male group,1.0406(95%CI =1.0294-1.0519)in the female group,1.0430(95%CI =1.0343-1.0519)in the general aged group,1.0577(95%CI =1.0452-1.0703)in the aged male group and1.0427(95%CI =1.0284-1.0572)in the aged female group.Conclusion The results showed that there was an association between TSP concentration and the cardiovascular disease mortality in Shenyang.It was considered that TSP might be one of the risk factors related to the increase of cardiovascular disease mortality.
