TL;DR: Individually-tailored interventions offer promise for changing behavior and further research is needed to understand barriers to HPD use and how to maximize the benefits of individually tailored interventions in this setting.

TL;DR: In this paper, an air quality study was conducted in an international airshed encompassing Detroit, Michigan, USA, and Windsor, Ontario, Canada, where active and passive samplers were used to measure nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), 26 volatile organic compounds (VOCs), 23 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and pesticides, and three size fractions of particulate matter (PM) over a two-week period in September 2008.

TL;DR: Investigation of ambient air quality across the international border between Detroit and Windsor and its association with acute asthma events in 5- to 89-year-old residents of these cities demonstrates that intra-urban air quality variations are related to adverse respiratory events in both cities.

TL;DR: The researchers distributed an anonymous survey to classical orchestra musicians in the southwestern United States and suggested low health care-seeking behaviors relative to self-reported signs and symptoms of morbidity.
