Abstract
This study aims at estimating exposure-response functions (SO2, NO2, and SPM-health effects) under five areas of the Pollution-Related Health Damage Prevention system. The study compares two types of exposure functions with indexes of “cumulative air pollution concentration (multi-year, one pollutant)”and “composite air pollution concentration (one year, different pollutants).”The accuracy of the exposure-response functions were improved by both the indexes compared to the function with one year-one pollutant data. Since the exposure-response functions in each city share common features, the results indicate the possibility of an integrated model of “one-fit-for-all.”
