Maria José Rosa,Adnan Divjan,Lori Hoepner,Beverley J. Sheares,Diurka Diaz,Kevin Gauvey-Kern,Frederica P. Perera,Rachel L. Miller,Matthew S. Perzanowski +8 more
TL;DR: To determine the feasibility of using a multiple flow offline fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) collection method in an inner‐city cohort and determine this population's alveolar and conducting airway contributions of NO, it is hypothesized that the flow independent NO parameters would be associated differentially with wheeze and seroatopy.
Journal Article

TL;DR: This exploratory study demonstrates the usefulness of the immunoperoxidase method to detect PAH-DNA adducts in stored breast tissue and suggests further research on a larger population, including patients from both high- and low-pollution environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comment on the significance of positive carcinogenicity studies using gavage as the route of exposure.
TL;DR: A review of a nonrandom sample of 117 chemicals or chemical processes listed as known or reasonably anticipated to be carcinogenic in the National Toxicology Program's Third Annual Report on Carcinogens provides support for the validity of the gavage route in such studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of prenatal exposure to fine particulate matter and intake of Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) in pregnancy on eczema occurrence in early childhood

TL;DR: The findings of the study suggest that Paracetamol use by mothers in pregnancy is not an independent risk factor for eczema in children, however, even very small doses of Par acetamol taken in pregnancy may contribute to the occurrence of allergic symptoms in early childhood if there is prenatal co-exposure to higher airborne fine particulate matter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methods for detecting interactions between imprinted genes and environmental exposures using birth cohort designs with mother-offspring pairs.
TL;DR: It is shown that the proposed imprinting test using the birth cohort design with mother-offspring pairs is an efficient test for testing the interactions between imprinted genes and environmental exposures.
