      Samoli, Evangelia; Stafoggia, Massimo; Rodopoulou, Sophia; Ostro, Bart; Declercq, Christophe; Alessandrini, Ester; Díaz, Julio; Karanasiou, Angeliki; Kelessis, Apostolos G.; Le Tertre, Alain; Pandolfi, Paolo; Randi, Giorgia; Scarinzi, Cecilia; Zauli-Sajani, Stefano; Katsouyanni, Klea; Forastiere, Francesco; Study Group, MED-PARTICLES; Agis Cherta, David (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2013-08-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Few studies have investigated the independent health effects of different size fractions of particulate matter (PM) in multiple locations, especially in Europe. We estimated the short-term effects of PM with aerodynamic ...

    • Desert dust outbreaks in Southern Europe: Contribution to daily PM10 concentrations and short-term associations with mortality and hospital admissions 

      Stafoggia, Massimo; Zauli-Sajani, Stefano; Pey, Jorge; Samoli, Evangelia; Agis Cherta, David (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2016-04-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Background: Evidence on the association between short-term exposure to desert dust and health outcomes is controversial. Objectives: We aimed to estimate the short-term effects of particulate matter = 10 µm (PM10) on ...

    • Short-term effects of particulate matter on mortality during forest fires in Southern Europe: results of the MED-PARTICLES Project 

      Faustini, Annunziata; Alessandrini, Ester R.; Pey, Jorge; Perez Lozano, Noemi; Samoli, Evangelia; Querol, Xavier; Cadum, Ennio; Perrino, Cinzia; Ostro, Bart; Ranzi, Andrea; Sunyer, Jordi; Stafoggia, Massimo; Forastiere, Francesco; study group, MED-PARTICLES; Agis Cherta, David (2015-04-14)
      Article
      Open Access
      An association between occurrence of wildfires and mortality in the exposed population has been observed in several studies with controversial results for cause-specific mortality. In the Mediterranean area, forest fires ...

    • The risks of acute exposure to black carbon in Southern Europe: results from the MED-PARTICLES project 

      Ostro, Bart; Tobias Garcés, Aurelio; Karanasiou, Angeliki; Samoli, Evangelia; Querol, Xavier; Rodopoulou, Sophia; Basagaña Flores, Xavier; Eleftheriadis, Kostas; Diapouli, Evangelia; Vratolis, Stergios; Jacquemin, Bénédicte; Katsouyanni, Klea; Sunyer, Jordi; Forastiere, Francesco; Stafoggia, Massimo; Study Group, MED-PARTICLES; Agis Cherta, David (2015-01-09)
      Article
      Open Access
      While several studies have reported associations of daily exposures to PM2.5 (particles less than 2.5 µm) with mortality, few studies have examined the impact of its constituents such as black carbon (BC), which is also a ...
