1 A simulation model of building intervention impacts on indoor environmental quality, pediatric asthma, and costs  Maria Patricia Fabian, ScD, Gary Adamkiewicz, PhD, Natasha Kay Stout, PhD, Megan Sandel, MD, Jonathan Ian Levy, ScD  Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  Volume 133, Issue 1, Pages (January 2014) DOI: /j.jaci Copyright © 2013 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Percentage change in pollutant concentrations for each intervention scenario compared with the baseline scenario: A, NO2; B, PM2.5. HEPA, High-efficiency particulate air.

4 Fig 3 Percentage change in health outcomes for each intervention compared with the baseline scenario. A, Asthma symptom days include days with any symptom, including wheeze, cough, and nighttime awakenings. B, Serious events include asthma hospitalizations, ED visits, and clinic visits. Asthma outcomes reflect changes in exposure to NO2, PM2.5, cockroach allergen, and damp homes. HEPA, High-efficiency particulate air.

5 Fig 4 Changes in costs of health care use for each intervention compared with baseline averaged over all asthmatic patients. HEPA, High-efficiency particulate air.
