BACKGROUND: The relationships between air pollutants and mental and behavioral disorders (MBDs) remain unclear. We aimed to identify the primary pollutants affecting mental health and evaluate the short-term effects on emergency ambulance dispatches (EADs) due to MBDs. METHODS: Time-stratified case-crossover study and conditional logistic regression model were adopted to explore the impact of air pollutants on EADs due to MBDs from 2013 to 2020 in Shenzhen, China. In order to clarify the influence of gender and age on association, subgroup analysis was carried out. We also applied binary response surface model and distributed lag interaction model to examine the interaction effects between pollutants and meteorological factors on EADs due to MBDs. RESULTS: Nitrogen dioxide (NO CONCLUSIONS: Short exposure to NO
