The effects of air pollution on asthma hospital admissions in Adelaide, South Australia, 2003–2013: time‐series and case–crossover analyses

Abstract

Findings suggest that children are more vulnerable and the associations between exposure to air pollutants and asthma hospitalizations tended to be stronger in the cool season compared to the warm season, with the exception of ozone. This study has important public health implications and provides valuable evidence for the development of policies for asthma management.
