Retirement and perceived social inferiority strongly link with health inequalities in older age: decomposition of a concentration index of poor health... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Identifying mechanisms that generate and sustain health inequalities is a prerequisite for developing effective policy response, but little is known about factors contributing to health in
Historic air pollution exposure and long-term mortality risks in England and Wales: prospective longitudinal cohort study (Publications)
INTRODUCTION: Long-term air pollution exposure contributes to mortality but there are few studies examining effects of very long-term (> 25 years) exposures. METHODS: This study investigated modelled
