[Application of AirQ+ software in air pollution acute health risk assessment in China].

OBJECTIVE

To promote the application of software AirQ +developed by WHO in the air pollution health risk assessment in China.

METHODS

Introduced the calculation principle, scope of application, required data, results output and application examples of the model. Meta-analysis result of exposure-response relationship coefficients of acute health risks of air pollution in China are also provided in this paper.

RESULTS

The air quality and other related parameters of the study area in China can be input into AirQ+ software to obtain the attributable risk value of the health outcome of the exposed population compared with the reference concentration.

CONCLUSION

The AirQ + software can be used for quantitative assessment of acute health risks of air pollution in China.
