Abstract

Long-term ozone exposure is a significant public health concern. To mitigate its impact, it is crucial to identify diseases, populations, and regions that are particularly sensitive to ozone. In this study, we used high-quality data and updated relative risk estimates to investigate subgroup differences in mortality burden due to ozone exposure in China. In 2020, nationwide ozone-associated deaths totaled 276,800 (95 % CI: 106,700–451,900), representing 3.2 % of all deaths, with respiratory and cardiovascular diseases accounting for 16.8 % and 83.2 %, respectively. The per capita ozone-associated mortality in China was 20 per 100,000 person-years, with a significantly higher rate observed in elderly individuals aged ≥75 years (189 deaths per 100,000) compared to young individuals aged 30–44 years (1 death per 100,000). There were notable spatial patterns of ozone-associated deaths among the regions, indicating a critical response to ozone levels and population density. Interestingly, urban areas exhibited a 22.4 % lower mortality rate related to ozone compared to rural areas. This difference was attributed to the combined influence of ozone exposure (+19.9 %), population size (+17.7 %), age structure (−39.2 %), and baseline mortality (−20.8 %). By emphasizing subgroup differences and driving factors, these findings significantly enhance the understanding of the ozone-associated mortality burden, providing valuable insights for policymakers.

利用多源数据评估中国臭氧相关死亡负担的亚组差异和根本原因
长期接触臭氧是一个重大的公共健康问题。为了减轻其影响,识别对臭氧特别敏感的疾病、人群和地区至关重要。在这项研究中,我们利用高质量的数据和最新的相对风险估计值,调查了中国因暴露于臭氧而导致死亡的亚组差异。2020 年,全国与臭氧相关的死亡总人数为 27.68 万人(95 % CI:10.67 万-45.19 万),占总死亡人数的 3.2%,其中呼吸系统疾病和心血管疾病分别占 16.8%和 83.2%。中国与臭氧相关的人均死亡率为每 10 万人年 20 例,与 30-44 岁的年轻人(每 10 万人年 1 例)相比,年龄≥75 岁的老年人的死亡率明显更高(每 10 万人年 189 例)。各地区与臭氧相关的死亡人数存在明显的空间模式,这表明臭氧水平和人口密度对死亡人数有重要影响。有趣的是,城市地区与臭氧相关的死亡率比农村地区低 22.4%。这一差异是由于臭氧暴露(+19.9%)、人口规模(+17.7%)、年龄结构(-39.2%)和基线死亡率(-20.8%)的综合影响造成的。通过强调亚组差异和驱动因素,这些研究结果大大提高了人们对臭氧相关死亡负担的认识,为政策制定者提供了宝贵的见解。
