Are passive smoking, air pollution and obesity a greater mortality risk than major radiation incidents? [PDF]
, 2007 Background Following a nuclear incident, the communication and perception of radiation risk becomes a (perhaps the) major public health issue. In response to such incidents it is therefore crucial to communicate radiation health risks in the context of ...

Exposure to moderate air pollution during late pregnancy and cord blood cytokine secretion in healthy neonates. [PDF]
, 2011 Ambient air pollution can alter cytokine concentrations as shown in vitro and following short-term exposure to high air pollution levels in vivo. Exposure to pollution during late pregnancy has been shown to affect fetal lymphocytic immunophenotypes ...

Air pollution modelling for birth cohorts: a time-space regression model [PDF]
, 2016 To investigate air pollution effects during pregnancy or in the first weeks of life, models are needed that capture both the spatial and temporal variability of air pollution exposures.; We developed a time-space exposure model for ambient NO2 ...
