    Abstract Measuring and monitoring non-pharmaceutical interventions is important yet challenging due to the need to clearly define and encode non-pharmaceutical interventions, to collect geographically and socially representative data, and to accurately document the timing at which interventions are initiated and changed. These challenges highlight the importance of integrating and triangulating across multiple databases and the need to expand and fund the mandate for public health organizations to track interventions systematically.

    Abstract The effect modification of meteorological factors on the association between ambient Sulphur dioxide (SO2) and mortality is critical for designing intervention policy. Existing studies did not result in consistent conclusions on the effect modification, and Years of life lost (YLLs) was rarely used as a health impact indicator to examine the modifying effect. This study aims to estimate the mean air temperature and relative humidity modification effects on the impact of SO2 on daily mortality and YLLs in Chengdu, China. Mortality, YLLs, air pollution and meteorological data were collected for 2011–2014. Three analytical approaches based on generalized additive models (GAMs) were used, including bivariate response surface model, product term model, and stratification model. We found that the effects of SO2 on mortality and YLLs depended on temperature at various lags, but did not depend on relative humidity. SO2 exhibited larger adverse effects on mortality in high temperature level (22.8–29.4°C) days than in low temperature level (−0.3–9.3°C) days, with a 10μg/m3 increment in SO2, non-accidental death increased by 0.8% (0.001, 0.015)at low temperature level, but increased by 1.4% (0.005, 0.024) at high temperature level. On the contrary, SO2 showed greater adverse effects on YLLs in low temperature days than in high temperature days, with a 10μg/m3 increment in SO2, non-accidental YLL increased by 40.580 (31.478, 49.682) at high temperature level, but increased by −2.703 (−14.668, 9.261) at low temperature level. We concluded that the effect of SO2 on mortality and YLLs may depend on temperature in Chengdu, China. Our results highlight the importance of considering the interaction between SO2 and temperature on health outcomes in future research. Also, policy makers should enhance the emission control of SO2 in extreme temperature days in Chengdu.
