Surmortalité associée à une vague de chaleur et à la pollution photochimique durant l'été 1994 en Belgique - Rapport préliminaire F. SARTOR, R. SNACKEN, Cl. DEMUTH IHE-Section Épidémiologie et CELINE - IRCEL. Avril 1995.

Temperature, Ambient Ozone Levels, and Mortality during Summer, 1994, in Belgium. F. SARTOR, R. SNACKEN, Cl. DEMUTH and D. WALCKIERS Environmental Research 70, 105-113 (1995)

The number of daily deaths, temperature, relative humidity, and 24-hour concentrations of main air pollutants observed during a heat wave (June 27 - August 7, 1994) in Belgium were compared with those recorded before and after this heat wave. All these variables were averaged over the country. Expected mortality was calculated from daily deaths observed during the summers of 1985-93. The influence of meteorological and air pollution variables on daily mortality was analyzed using generalized least squares method. Mortality recorded during the heat wave was higher than expected : it increased by 9.4 % in the age group 0-64 years (236 excess deaths)

Impact des Episodes de Pollution de l'Air par l'Ozone et des Temperatures Elevees sur la Sante en Belgique F. SARTOR, R. SNACKEN, D. WALCKIERS, S. DE BROE et Cl. DEMUTH Decembre 1996

Mortality in the Elderly and Ambient Ozone Concentration during the Hot Summer, 1994, in Belgium F. SARTOR, Cl. DEMUTH, R. SNACKEN and D. WALCKIERS Environmental Research 72, 109-117 (1997)

Extensive investigations were carried out to study the relationship between daily mortality in the elderly, outdoor air temperature and ozone
concentration observed in Belgium during the hot summer, 1994. The two environmental variables were assessed through mean daily temperature and 24-hr ozone concentration, both measured the day before and averaged over the country. Data were stratified by terciles of mean daily temperature in order to reduce the degree of collinearity between the investigated environmental variables. In the first stratum, which ranged 9.9-15.4°C (41 days), mean daily temperature and 24-hr ozone concentration were not correlated while the mean number of daily deaths was higher when 24-hr ozone concentration raised from 45 to 55 µ/m3
