FIGURE 23.27  PM 10 total mortality exposure-response curve for the mean of the current and previous day's
PM 10 concentrations for the 20 largest U.S. cities. Thick lines are the mean curve and 95% credible interval.
Dashed lines are Bayesian estimates of the city-speciic exposure-response curves. (From Dominici, F. et al.,
