Lack of Association of Alcohol and Tobacco with HPV16-Associated Head and Neck Cancer

Journal ArticleDOI

Comparing smoothing techniques in Cox models for exposure-response relationships.

TL;DR: A measure of the difference between a pair of curves based on the area between them, standardized by the average of the areas under the couple of curves is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cotton dust and endotoxin exposure-response relationships in cotton textile workers.

TL;DR: No dose-response relationships were demonstrated comparing dust concentration to any pulmonary function or symptom variable and a dose- response trend was seen with the current endotoxin level and FEV1, delta FEV 1%, and the prevalence of byssinosis and chronic bronchitis, except for the highest exposure level group in which a reversal of the trend wasseen.
Journal ArticleDOI

The healthy worker effect in asthma: work may cause asthma, but asthma may also influence work.

TL;DR: The HWE is described as it relates to asthma research, and the significance of taking HWE bias into account in designing and interpreting asthma studies is discussed, as well as the importance of understanding Hwe bias for public health practitioners and for clinicians.
