Multinational prediction of household and personal exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the PURE cohort study

Economic Growth Facilitates Household Fuel Use Transition to Reduce PM2.5-Related Deaths in China

“…38 A similar pattern was observed in the larger PURE cohort predictions. 33 We estimate the concentrations for indoor fuel cooking (C HAP ) from two data sets by subtracting the contributions of outdoor sources (Supporting Information Table 9). The estimated health burden and variable contributions for WHO data set mostly align with the main results in this study because the RR curves for populations using polluting fuels usually reach the exposure threshold by employing high-level C HAP (Supporting Information Table 10).…”

“…With limited HAP measurements, the estimation of HAP PM 2.5 concentration usually relied on compiled PM 2.5 measurements from published studies. , We apply HAP PM 2.5 concentrations from WHO and PURE study to explore the varying health consequence induced by this parameter (Supporting Information Note 5). For WHO data set which simulated HAP PM 2.5 through meta-analysis, the concentrations exhibit high values for coal and biomass fuel users.…”

“…As C HAP in eq 3 is an important factor that influences the health consequences for different fuel use populations, we conducted a series of sensitivity analysis by changing the values from other data sets, including the WHO Global HAP database 32 and the Prospective Urban and Rural Epidemiology (PURE) study 33 (see Supporting Information Note 5). 6.…”

Particulate matter in a lockdown home: evaluation, calibration, results and health risk from an IoT enabled low-cost sensor network for residential air quality monitoring

“…This literature varies greatly due to the heterogenous nature of cooking globally-in economically developed nations cooking typically involves gas or electric ovens and hobs, in designated areas with mechanical ventilation. However, half of the global population rely on solid biomass fuel is for cooking using open stoves with reliance on natural ventilation, often inside (or if outside, near to entrances of ) a multi-purpose or indeed the only room within the home (Nandasena et al, 2018, Shupler et al, 2022, Campbell et al, 2021. Here we focus on households reflective of the setting in which this study took place (cooking with gas/electric oven and stoves in a designated kitchen area in typical UK housing stock).…”
