摘要翻译：
本研究调查了日本1992年汽车NOx法对环境空气污染物和胎儿和婴儿健康结果的影响。利用1987年至1997年1500多个监测站的面板数据，我们发现1992年的治理后，治理区的NOx和SO2水平分别下降了87%和52%。此外，利用市级生命统计面板数据集，采用差中差回归方法，我们发现该条例的颁布解释了1991年至1993年间胎儿死亡率的大部分改善。这项研究首次就这一大规模汽车管制政策对胎儿健康的积极影响提供了证据。

英文摘要：
  This study investigates the impacts of the Automobile NOx Law of 1992 on ambient air pollutants and fetal and infant health outcomes in Japan. Using panel data taken from more than 1,500 monitoring stations between 1987 and 1997, we find that NOx and SO2 levels reduced by 87% and 52%, respectively in regulated areas following the 1992 regulation. In addition, using a municipal-level Vital Statistics panel dataset and adopting the regression differences-in-differences method, we find that the enactment of the regulation explained most of the improvements in the fetal death rate between 1991 and 1993. This study is the first to provide evidence on the positive impacts of this large-scale automobile regulation policy on fetal health.
