Predicting airborne particle levels aboard Washington State school buses (Publications)
School buses contribute substantially to childhood air pollution exposures yet they are rarely quantified in epidemiology studies. This paper characterizes fine particulate matter (PM2.5) aboard schoo
Home versus hospital deliveries: follow up study of matched pairs for procedures and outcome (Publications)
OBJECTIVE: To assess procedures and outcomes in deliveries planned at home versus those planned in hospital among women choosing the place of delivery. DESIGN: Follow up study of matched pairs. SETTIN
Estimated hourly personal exposures to ambient and nonambient particulate matter among sensitive populations in Seattle, Washington (Publications)
Epidemiological studies of particulate matter (PM) routinely use concentrations measured with stationary outdoor monitors as surrogates for personal exposure. Despite the frequently reported poor corr
The role of <em>Trypanosoma brucei</em> MRPA in melarsoprol susceptibility (Publications)
We previously showed that over-expression of Trypanosoma brucei MRPA, a member of the multidrug resistance protein family in T. brucei, reproducibly resulted in resistance to the anti-trypanosomal dru
Short-term effects of ambient particles on mortality in the elderly: results from 28 cities in the APHEA2 project (Publications)
Within the framework of the APHEA2 (Air Pollution on Health: a European Approach) project, the effects of ambient particles on mortality among persons > or = 65 yrs were investigated. Daily measuremen
Effect of mutation and genetic background on drug resistance in <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</em> (Publications)
Bacterial factors may contribute to the global emergence and spread of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB). Only a few studies have reported on the interactions between different bacterial factors. We st
