<em>Strongyloides stercoralis</em> larvae excretion patterns before and after treatment (Publications)
SUMMARY The variability of larval excretion impedes the parasitological diagnosis of Strongyloides stercoralis in infected individuals. We assessed the number of larvae excreted per gram (LPG) stool i
High prevalence and spatial distribution of <em>Strongyloides stercoralis</em> in rural Cambodia (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The threadworm, Strongyloides stercoralis, endemic in tropical and temperate climates, is a neglected tropical disease. Its diagnosis requires specific methods, and accurate information on
Classification of personal exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) for epidemiological research: Evaluation of different exposure... (Publications)
The use of personal exposure meters (exposimeters) has been recommended for measuring personal exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) from environmental far-field sources in every
Problematic mobile phone use in adolescents: derivation of a short scale MPPUS-10 (Publications)
OBJECTIVES: Our aim was to derive a short version of the Mobile Phone Problem Use Scale (MPPUS) using data from 412 adolescents of the Swiss HERMES (Health Effects Related to Mobile phonE use in adole
A model for radiofrequency electromagnetic field predictions at outdoor and indoor locations in the context of epidemiological research (Publications)
We present a geospatial model to predict the radiofrequency electromagnetic field from fixed site transmitters for use in epidemiological exposure assessment. The proposed model extends an existing mo
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
A personal, distributed exposimeter: procedure for design, calibration, validation, and application (Publications)
This paper describes, for the first time, the procedure for the full design, calibration, uncertainty analysis, and practical application of a personal, distributed exposimeter (PDE) for the detection
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
Estimating malaria transmission intensity from <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> serological data using antibody density models (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Serological data are increasingly being used to monitor malaria transmission intensity and have been demonstrated to be particularly useful in areas of low transmission where traditional m
