Percentage changes with 95% confidence intervals for the increase in daily cardiovascular admissions with a 2-day moving average (lag 0–1) based on particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations with and without adjustment for copollutants in Beijing, 2013–2017
| Pollutants | CVD | AF | CHD | HF |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unadjusted PM2.5 | 0.30 (0.2,0.39) | 0.29 (0.03,0.55) | 0.34 (0.22,0.45) | 0.10 (− 0.07,0.26) |
| Adjusted for SO2 | 0.23 (0.11,0.36) | 0.12 (−0.21,0.45) | 0.27 (0.13,0.42) | 0.09 (− 0.12,0.3) |
| Adjusted for CO | 0.26 (0.12–0.40) | 0.28 (−0.19–0.75) | 0.30 (0.14,0.46) | 0.14 (− 0.24,0.52) |
| Adjusted for NO2 | 0.29 (0.16,0.42) | 0.26 (−0.17,0.7) | 0.95 (0.75,1.15) | 0.13 (−0.18,0.39) |
| Adjusted for O3 | 0.31 (0.22,0.40) | 0.31 (0.05,0.57) | 0.35 (0.24,0.46) | 0.11 (−0.05,0.27) |
Data are percentage changes (%) and 95% confidence intervals
CO = carbon monoxide. PM2.5 = particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 μm. SO2 = sulfur dioxide. NO2 = nitrogen dioxide. O3 = ozone
CVD: Cardiovascular disease. CHD: Coronary Heart Disease
HF: Heart Failure. AF: Atrial Fibrillation
