"The mitigation potential of local traffic interventions on asthma incidence : Health impact assessement based on real-world data from car-free Sundays"
Bram Vandeninden
This study aims to quantify the potential reduction in (paediatric) asthma incidence in Brussels that could be achieved through policy interventions targeting local traffic.
Combining Exposure-Reponse-Functions (ERF's) from existing meta-analyses, health impact assessement methodologies and real-world NO2 measurement data from official observation stations, we conclude that permanently reducing local traffic level to the car-free days levels in Brussels could lead to a reduction of minimum 27,4% [95% CI: 17,2 - 35,5%], 28,0% [95% CI: 15,6 - 32,2%] and 12,7% [95% CI: 6,7 - 15,1% ] in pediatric asthma incidence in trafficked areas, central urban areas and residential areas respectively.
The study methodology can be easily expanded to other diseases like adult asthma, diabetes incidence etc
