European Community Respiratory Health Survey II : final report of work package 6 : PM2.5 assessment in 21 European cities of ECRHS II (Publications)
respiratory diseases, in particular asthma and decline in lung function. The purpose of this report is to present the annual mean PM2.5 mass concentrations in the participating centres and to describe the methodology [...] Sampling was conducted for seven days per month for a year. Annual mean PM2.5 mass concentrations varied substantially, with Iceland reporting the lowest value (3.7 µg/m3) and northern Italy the highest

Prevalence, incidence, and reported global distribution of noma: a systematic literature review (Publications)
Noma (cancrum oris) is a severely debilitating orofacial disease. The global annual incidence and prevalence figures of noma are outdated and were not based on epidemiological studies. Therefore, we s [...] systematically reviewed the scientific literature about the prevalence, incidence, and reported global distribution of noma. We searched ten databases and Google Scholar from 1950 up to Sept 23, 2020. We [...] countries in the past decade. Additionally, we identified a strong focality, with...
