空气质量健康影响评估(HIA)综合了有关空气污染暴露、健康影响和人口脆弱性的信息，以供监管决策和公众参与。HIAS经常使用年度平均县或区域数据来估计健康结果发病率，这些发病率因季节和县以下一级的不同而有很大差异。以纽约市为例，我们评估了由于环境细颗粒物(PM2.5)和臭氧而估计的全市发病率和死亡率对卫生发病率数据的地理(县与社区)和时间(季节与年平均)分辨率的敏感性。我们还使用社区水平分析来评估社区贫困集中度对估计的空气污染影响的差异。估计可归因于PM2.5和臭氧的全市健康影响对健康发病率数据的地理分辨率相对不敏感。然而，社区层面的分析表明，随着社区贫困水平的提高，影响越来越大，特别是对于PM2.5可归因于哮喘的急诊科就诊，高贫困社区的影响是低贫困社区的4.5倍。使用季节和年度平均发病率，PM2.5可归因于健康的影响相似。全市臭氧可归因于哮喘的发病率估计从季节性计算比年平均发病率低15%，因为夏季臭氧季节的哮喘发病率低于年平均发病率。在臭氧季节内，估计臭氧导致的儿童哮喘急诊科57%发生在4-6月期间，此时平均基线发病率高于7-9月期间，因为7-9月期间臭氧浓度较高。这些分析强调了在当地空气质量影响评估中利用空间和时间分辨数据的重要性，以确定城市总体负担的特征并确定易受影响的地区。
Air quality health impact assessment (HIA) synthesizes information about air pollution exposures, health effects, and population vulnerability for regulatory decision-making and public engagement. HIAs often use annual average county or regional data to estimate health outcome incidence rates that vary substantially by season and at the subcounty level. Using New York City as an example, we assessed the sensitivity of estimated citywide morbidity and mortality attributable to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone to the geographic (county vs. neighborhood) and temporal (seasonal vs. annual average) resolution of health incidence data. We also used the neighborhood-level analysis to assess variation in estimated air pollution impacts by neighborhood poverty concentration. Estimated citywide health impacts attributable to PM2.5 and ozone were relatively insensitive to the geographic resolution of health incidence data. However, the neighborhood-level analysis demonstrated increasing impacts with greater neighborhood poverty levels, particularly for PM2.5-attributable asthma emergency department visits, which were 4.5 times greater in high compared to low-poverty neighborhoods. PM2.5-attributable health impacts were similar using seasonal and annual average incidence rates. Citywide ozone-attributable asthma morbidity was estimated to be 15 % lower when calculated from seasonal, compared to annual average incidence rates, as asthma morbidity rates are lower during the summer ozone season than the annual average rate. Within the ozone season, 57 % of estimated ozone-attributable emergency department for asthma in children occurred in the April–June period when average baseline incidence rates are higher than in the July–September period when ozone concentrations are higher. These analyses underscore the importance of utilizing spatially and temporally resolved data in local air quality impact assessments to characterize the overall city burden and identify areas of high vulnerability.
