Risk excess for house calls for asthma, upper and lower respiratory diseases following a 10 μg/m3 increase in NO2, PM2.5 and PM10 levels (lag 0–3)
| Risk excess (%) | URD (95% CI) | LRD (95% CI) | Asthma (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|---|
| NO2, nitrogen dioxide; LRD, lower respiratory disease; URD, upper respiratory disease. | |||
| NO2 (µg/m3) | 0.7 (−0.9 to 2.3) | 1.1 (−0.7 to 2.9) | −0.3 (−3.3 to 2.7) |
| PM25. (µg/m3) | 6.0 (3.1 to 9.1) | 5.8 (2.8 to 8.9) | 4.4 (−1.3 to 10.4) |
| PM10 (µg/m3) | 2.9 (0.8 to 5.1) | 3.1 (0.9 to 5.4) | 2.5 (−1.7 to 6.8) |
