Ischemic heart disease mortality due to fine particulate matter in Seoul between 2016 and 2020
Our study assessed the burden of IHD mortality attributable to ambient PM<sub>2.5</sub> and the potential health benefits associated with its reduction in Seoul between 2016 and 2020. The findings suggest that continued efforts to reduce PM<sub>2.5</sub> concentrations could significantly mitigate IHD mortality, particularly in the context of an aging population.
