Ambient air pollution is potentially harmful pollutants released by industries, households, vehicles, power plants, and biomass burning. Of all of these pollutants, fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has the greatest effect on human health and it is associated with an increased risk of several causes of death which cause cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and cancers. The purpose of this study was to examine the association of air pollution with mortality and to calculate mortality attributed to air pollution. It is an ecological study. The number of deaths attributed to air pollution was calculated with AirQ+ methodology. Twenty-four-hour SO2 measurements in the study region, with its intensive motor traffic, exceeded the national and WHO threshold values on 5 days and 143 days, while PM10 values exceeded those limits on 239 days and 331 days, respectively. According to AirQ+ calculation, 25.2% of deaths were caused by air pollution, with 415 in 100,000 deaths being attributable to air pollution. We recommend that PM2.5 be included among the air quality index evaluation criteria by means of amendment to the existing legislation, and that a national threshold limit for PM2.5 be determined in Turkey.

土耳其Tekirdağ的空气质量和可预防的死亡

环境空气污染是工业,家庭,车辆,发电厂和生物质燃烧释放出的潜在有害污染物。在所有这些污染物中,细颗粒物(PM 2.5)对人类健康的影响最大,并且与导致心血管疾病,呼吸道疾病和癌症的多种死亡原因的风险增加有关。这项研究的目的是检查空气污染与死亡率的关系,并计算归因于空气污染的死亡率。这是一个生态研究。空气污染造成的死亡人数是使用AirQ +方法计算的。二十四小时SO 2在该研究区域,由于交通繁忙,在5天和143天时超过了国家和WHO的阈值,而PM 10值分别在239天和331天时超过了这些限值。根据AirQ +的计算,25.2%的死亡是由空气污染引起的,每100,000例死亡中有415例归因于空气污染。我们建议通过对现有法规的修订将PM 2.5纳入空气质量指数评估标准,并在土耳其确定PM 2.5的国家阈值限值。
