• Air pollution and child health impacts of decarbonization in 16 global cities: Modelling study 

      Milner, James; Hughes, Robert; Chowdhury, Sourangsu; Picetti, Roberto; Ghosh, Rakesh; Yeung, Shunmay; Lelieveld, Jos; Dangour, Alan D.; Wilkinson, Paul (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Most research on the air pollution-related health effects of decarbonization has focused on adults. We assess the potential health benefits that could be achieved in children and young people in a global sample of 16 cities ...
    • Assessment of short-term heat effects on cardiovascular mortality and vulnerability factors using small area data in Europe 

      Zhang, Siqi; Breitner, Susanne; Rai, Masna; Nikolaou, Nikolaos; Stafoggia, Massimo; de' Donato, Francesca; Samoli, Evangelia; Zafeiratou, Sofia; Katsouyanni, Klea; Rao-Skirbekk, Shilpa; Diz-Lois Palomares, Alfonso; Gasparrini, Antonio; Masselot, Pierre; Aunan, Kristin; Peters, Annette; Schneider, Alexandra (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Short-term associations between heat and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality have been examined mostly in large cities. However, different vulnerability and exposure levels may contribute to spatial heterogeneity. This ...
    • Modification of heat-related effects on mortality by air pollution concentration, at small-area level, in the Attica prefecture, Greece 

      Zafeiratou, Sofia; Samoli, Evangelia; Analitis, Antonis; Dimakopoulou, Konstantina; Giannakopoulos, Christos; Varotsos, Konstantinos V.; Schneider, Alexandra; Stafoggia, Massimo; Aunan, Kristin; Katsouyanni, Klea (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      The independent effects of short-term exposure to increased air temperature and air pollution on mortality are well-documented. There is some evidence indicating that elevated concentrations of air pollutants may lead to ...
