Early life stress, air pollution, inflammation, and disease: An integrative review and immunologic model of social-environmental adversity and lifespan health.

TL;DR: How exposure to two risk factors that commonly occur with social disadvantage—early life stress and air pollution—affect health is examined to propose an integrated, multi‐level model that describes how these factors may interact and cause health disparity across individuals based on social disadvantage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stress and Health in Nursing Students: The Nurse Engagement and Wellness Study.

Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
