1. Long-term exposure to air pollution and cardiovascular mortality: an analysis of 22 european cohorts (Publications)

   Long-term exposure to air pollution and cardiovascular mortality: an analysis of 22 european cohorts

   Relevance:

   BACKGROUND: Air pollution has been associated with cardiovascular mortality, but it remains unclear as to whether specific pollutants are related to specific cardiovascular causes of death. Within the

2. Arterial blood pressure and long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution: an analysis in the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution... (Publications)

   Arterial blood pressure and long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution: an analysis in the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE)

   Relevance:

   BACKGROUND: Long-term exposure to air pollution is hypothesized to elevate arterial blood pressure (BP). The existing evidence is scarce and country-specific. OBJECTIVES: We investigated the cross-sec

3. Cross-sectional associations between air pollution and chronic bronchitis: an ESCAPE meta-analysis across five cohorts (Publications)

   Cross-sectional associations between air pollution and chronic bronchitis: an ESCAPE meta-analysis across five cohorts

   Relevance:

   BACKGROUND: This study aimed to assess associations of outdoor air pollution on prevalence of chronic bronchitis symptoms in adults in five cohort studies (Asthma-E3N, ECRHS, NSHD, SALIA, SAPALDIA) pa

4. Development of land use regression models for particle composition in twenty study areas in Europe (Publications)

   Development of land use regression models for particle composition in twenty study areas in Europe

   Relevance:

   Land Use Regression (LUR) models have been used to describe and model spatial variability of annual mean concentrations of traffic related pollutants such as nitrogen dioxide (NO2), nitrogen oxides (N

5. Development of land use regression models for PM2.5, PM2.5 absorbance, PM10 and PMcoarse in 20 European study areas; results of the ESCAPE project (Publications)

   Development of land use regression models for PM2.5, PM2.5 absorbance, PM10 and PMcoarse in 20 European study areas; results of the ESCAPE project

   Relevance:

   ABSTRACT Land Use Regression (LUR) models have been used increasingly for modeling small-scale spatial variation in air pollution concentrations and estimating individual exposure for participants of

6. Health-related quality of life and risk factors associated with spirometric restriction (Publications)

   Health-related quality of life and risk factors associated with spirometric restriction

   Relevance:

   The restrictive spirometric pattern is associated with a substantial morbidity and mortality burden. We sought to determine to what extent spirometric restriction is associated with impaired quality o

8. Mortality along the continuum of HIV care in Rwanda: a model-based analysis (Publications)

   Mortality along the continuum of HIV care in Rwanda: a model-based analysis

   Relevance:

   BACKGROUND: HIV is the leading cause of death among adults in sub-Saharan Africa. However, mortality along the HIV care continuum is poorly described. We combine demographic, epidemiologic, and health

9. Excretory/secretory products from the gastrointestinal nematode <em>Trichuris muris</em> (Publications)

   Excretory/secretory products from the gastrointestinal nematode <em>Trichuris muris</em>

   Relevance:

   To better control gastrointestinal nematode infections in humans and animals, it is important to understand the strategies used by these parasites to modulate the host immune system. In this regard, m

10. Whole genome sequencing distinguishes between relapse and reinfection in recurrent leprosy cases (Publications)

    Whole genome sequencing distinguishes between relapse and reinfection in recurrent leprosy cases

    Relevance:

    BACKGROUND: Since leprosy is both treated and controlled by multidrug therapy (MDT) it is important to monitor recurrent cases for drug resistance and to distinguish between relapse and reinfection as
