Biomarkers of host response predict primary end-point radiological pneumonia in Tanzanian children with clinical pneumonia: a prospective cohort study (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Diagnosing pediatric pneumonia is challenging in low-resource settings. The World Health Organization (WHO) has defined primary end-point radiological pneumonia for use in epidemiological
Experience and lessons from health impact assessment for human rights impact assessment (Publications)
As globalisation has opened remote parts of the world to foreign investment, global leaders at the United Nations and beyond have called on multinational companies to foresee and mitigate negative imp
Elemental constituents of particulate matter and newborn's size in eight European cohorts (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The health effects of suspended particulate matter (PM) may depend on its chemical composition. Associations between maternal exposure to chemical constituents of PM and newborn's size hav
Distribution of malaria exposure in endemic countries in Africa considering country levels of effective treatment (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Malaria prevalence, clinical incidence, treatment, and transmission rates are dynamically interrelated. Prevalence is often considered a measure of malaria transmission, but treatment of c
Spatial variation and land use regression modeling of the oxidative potential of fine particles (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Oxidative potential (OP) has been suggested to be a more health-relevant metric than particulate matter (PM) mass. Land use regression (LUR) models can estimate long-term exposure to air p
