Abstract
Elevated risk of ischemic heart disease (IHD) is associated with exposure to fine particulate matter. However, there is limited data on trends and comparisons in the global burden of IHD due to household air pollution from solid fuels (HAP) and ambient particulate matter pollution (APMP), particularly in regions of varying socio-economic levels. Based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 (GBD 2019), we obtained age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (ASDR) of IHD due to APMP and HAP from 1990 to 2019. Trends in the burden of IHD attributable to APMP and HAP during the period 1990 to 2019 were calculated by Joinpoint models. We estimated the relationship between ASMR with the socio-demographic indexes (SDI) and the health care accessibility and quality (HAQ) index by the Loess regression model. In 2019, the global burden of IHD ASMR attributed to APMP stabilized, but the most significant increases were observed in low-middle SDI regions. The global IHD ASMR attributed to APMP was 16.60 [95% Uncertainty Interval (UI), 13.61 to 19.44] per 100,000 population, with the highest APMP burden in middle SDI regions. From 1990 to 2019, the global ASMR for HAP-attributable IHD declined. The global ASMR of IHD attributable to HAP in 2019 was 6.30 (95% UI, 4.28 to 8.80) per 100,000 population, with the highest burden observed in the low SDI regions. From 1990 to 2019, the global burden of ASMR and ASDR of IHD attributable to APMP showed stabilization, whereas the HAP burden exhibited a decrease. There are a large burden of APMP particularly in middle SDI countries and a higher burden of HAP in low SDI countries. The burden of IHD due to APMP and HAP in men, the elderly, and populations in low, medium, and low SDI regions should be noticed.
