Abstract

The objective of this study was to estimate the health effects attributed to PM2.5 exposure in southwest of Iran. In order to estimate HA-CVD, HA-RD, LC-M, I-As in children, RAD, and WDL, the exposure-response function method was used. The annual mean of PM2.5 regularly exceeded 5.26-8.5 times from 2021 annual limit value established by the WHO. The dominance of PM2.5 in PM2.5/PM10 ratio decreased -34.6% from 2015 to 2020. The results showed that the risks of HA-CVD (- 51. 9), HA-RD (- 68.7%), LC-M (- 43.6%), I-As (- 52.1%), RAD (- 56.8%), and WDL (- 58.7%) declined per 105 inhabitants between 2018 and 2020 . Reducing the particulate emissions from industries and road traffic led to lower exposure to PM2.5, which will be effective in decrease of mortality rate. Keywords: PM2.5; exposure–response function; health effect; mortality.
