“…Близкие значения получены и в городе Лос-Анджелес, где на каждые 10 мкг/м 3 риск смертности от рака легкого, бронхов, носа, гортани увеличивался на 1.48% (95%ДИ: 1.48-1.52) после стандартизации показателей по полу, стадии рака и локализации . В последующем комментарии указывалось, что в других странах (Китай, Индия) за пределами Европы и США с более высоким уровнем загрязнения атмосферного воздуха РМ риск от воздействия РМ еще более значителен (Yorifuji et al, 2013). Глобальные расчетные оценки дополнительной смертности населения от воздействия РМ варьируют в пределах 800 тыс.…”

Реферат. Мелкодисперсные взвешенные частицы (РМ) разного размера-10 и 2.5 мкм являются основным индикатором качества атмосферного воздуха. В статье представлен обзор основных результатов эпидемиологических исследований о воздействии РМ на различные показатели здоровья населения (заболеваемость, репродуктивное здоровье, смертность). На основании данных Росгидромета о содержании общих взвешенных частиц в атмосферном воздухе городов России с использованием расчетных коэффициентов для РМ10 и РМ2.5 определены показатели дополнительной смертности населения в 219 городах, составившие 67.9 тыс. случаев/год при воздействии РМ10 и 88.2 тыс. случаев/год с учетом воздействия РМ2.5. Эти показатели соответствуют данным по Европейскому региону ВОЗ. Наиболее высокий уровень загрязнения атмосферного воздуха характерен для российских городов, расположенных в азиатской части страны. Систематические натурные определения РМ10 в атмосферном воздухе проводятся только в Москве, Санкт-Петербурге и Красноярске. Показана эффективность природоохранной деятельности в Москве, приведшая к снижению концентраций РМ10 в атмосферном воздухе. Отсутствие системы наблюдений в атмосферном воздухе других населенных пунктов затрудняет объективную оценку качества атмосферного воздуха и определение наиболее загрязненных территорий. Анализ данных о содержании РМ в атмосферном воздухе различных городов мира показал их связь с влиянием аридных территорий и транспортной нагрузки. Эффективность экологической политики в европейских городах подтверждается снижением уровня загрязнения РМ атмосферного воздуха. Ключевые слова.

“…A more comprehensive picture of the health effects of air pollution, which include cancer [58,59], metabolic diseases [60], maternal and birth outcomes [61,62], developmental effects [63], cognitive impairment [64] and central nervous system (CNS) diseases [65]. All these additional diseases have a progression that is consistent with cumulative exposure and progressive mechanisms of damage, such as chronic or degenerative diseases; 3.…”

Despite the increased attention given to the health impact assessment of air pollution and to the strategies to control it in both scientific literature and concrete interventions, the results of the implementations, especially those involving traffic, have not always been satisfactory and there is still disagreement about the most appropriate interventions and the methods to assess their effectiveness. This state-of-the-art article reviews the recent interpretation of the concepts that concern the impact assessment, and compares old and new measurements of attributable risk and attributable fraction. It also summarizes the ongoing discussion about the designs and methods for assessing the air pollution impact with particular attention to improvements due to spatio-temporal analysis and other new approaches, such as studying short term effects in cohorts, and the still discussed methods of predicting the values of attributable risk (AR). Finally, the study presents the more recent analytic perspectives and the methods for directly assessing the effects of not yet implemented interventions on air quality and health, in accordance with the suggestion in the strategic plan 2020−2025 from the Health Effect Institute.

“…Heavy traffic roads have been considered an independent source of OAP linked to elevated lung cancer risk [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Studies conducted mainly in large cities and their surroundings found a direct association between lung cancer risk and residential proximity to major roadways, though the magnitude of the risk estimates varied among studies.…”

Background: Air pollution from road traffic has been associated to an increased risk of lung cancer. Herein, we investigated the association between lung cancer mortality and residence near Italian highways or national major roads. Methods: Information on deaths for lung cancer registered from 1990 to 2010 and stratified by age, gender, and urban or rural municipality of residence at death were obtained from the National Institute of Statistics. Distance between the centroid of the municipality of residence and closest major roadways was considered as a proxy of pollution exposure. Relative Risks (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were computed using Poisson log-linear models adjusted for age, calendar period, deprivation index, North/South gradient, and urban/rural status. Results: A gradient in risk for lung cancer mortality was seen for residents within 50 meters (m) of national major roads. In particular, in rural municipalities a statistically significant increased risk for lung cancer death was observed in both sexes (RR = 1.27 for distance <25 m vs. 500–1999 m, 95% CI 1.17–1.42, in men; RR = 1.97, 95% CI 1.64–2.39, in women). In urban municipalities, weak risks of borderline significance were documented in both sexes (RR = 1.06, 95% CI 0.99–1.15 in men; and RR = 1.09, 95% CI 0.97–1.22 in women). No statistically significant association emerged between residence within 100 to 500 m from highways and RRs of death for lung cancer. Conclusions: In Italy, residing near national major roads, in particular in rural municipalities, was related to elevated risks of death for lung cancer.
