Abstract:
Objective To assess the association of air pollution with daily mortality among residents of Zhabei district in Shanghai. Methods Case,crossover analysis and conditional Logistic regression model were used to analyze the association of air pollution with daily mortality of residents in Zhabei district of Shanghai from June 2000 to December 2002. Results Using a symmetric bi,directional control sampling approach, the results obtained from a conditional logistic regression model with four reference periods after controlling for weather conditions showed that the OR of non,accidental mortality associated with each 10 ?g/m3 increment of PM10, SO2 and NO2 over a 48,hr moving average were 1.007(95%CI 1.003-1.011),1.011(95%CI 1.001-1.021),1.010(95%CI 1.000-1.020)respectively. Similar associations were observed between mortality of cardiovascular diseases and PM10, mortality of respiratory diseases and NO2. Also, PM10 was associated with mortality in a sensitivity analysis. Conclusion The acute effect of air pollution on mortality of the general population was established in Zhabei district of Shanghai.
