International evaluation of injury rates in coal mining : A comparison of risk and compliance-based regulatory approaches
Gerald S. Poplin,Hugh B. Miller,James Ranger-Moore,Carmel Bofinger,Margaret Kurzius-Spencer,Robin B. Harris,Jefferey L. Burgess +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed annual lost-time injury (LTI) rates for bituminous coal mines in the United States (US) with respect to Queensland (QLD) and New South Wales (NSW), Australia from 1996 to 2003.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silicosis and tuberculosis in Zambian miners
TL;DR: Examining annual cases of these diseases in Zambian miners including comparison of periods before (1960–1970) and after (1992–2002) the arrival of the HIV/AIDS pandemic found a marked increase in cases of TB.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute changes in sputum IL-10 following underground exposure to diesel exhaust
Jefferey L. Burgess,Joy E. Fleming,Emmanuel M. Mulenga,Arun B. Josyula,Tracy A. Hysong,Philip J. Joggerst,Margaret Kurzius-Spencer,Hugh B. Miller +7 more
TL;DR: High levels of diesel exhaust can result in rapid changes in sputum IL-10, suggesting possible protein modification, and there were no significant changes in spirometry, interleukins 1β, 4, and 8, tumor necrosis factor alpha or 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identifying Antecedent Conditions Responsible for the High Rate of Mining Injuries in Zambia
Hugh B. Miller,Thomson Sinkala,Ralph Renger,Erin M. Peacock,Joseph A. Tabor,Jefferey L. Burgess +5 more
TL;DR: A logic model approach was utilized to determine the root causes and broad categories of potential interventions for mining accidents and injuries in Zambia and showed that policy interventions have the greatest potential for substantive change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute changes in sputum collected from exposed human subjects in mining conditions.
TL;DR: The data suggest that changes in NEP activity may be an early, accurate endpoint for airway epithelial injury and provide a new insight into the mechanism of airway effects following particulate exposure.
