Global PM2.5-attributable health burden from 1990 to 2017: Estimates from the Global Burden of disease study 2017

Abstract

In conclusion, ambient PM2.5-attributable NCDs have threatened public health in middle and low SDI countries, while household PM2.5-attributable LRI still caused the largest burden in low SDI countries. More positive strategies should be tailored to reduce PM2.5-attributable burdens considering specific settings globally.
