TL;DR: Exposure to ambient air pollutants and traffic during pregnancy is associated with restricted fetal growth and a substantial proportion of cases of low birthweight at term could be prevented in Europe if urban air pollution was reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of traffic-related air pollution with cognitive development in children
Carmen Freire,Rosa Ramos,Raquel Puertas,Maria-Jose Lopez-Espinosa,Jordi Julvez,Inmaculada Aguilera,Francisco Cruz,Mariana-Fátima Fernández,Jordi Sunyer,Nicolás Olea +9 more
TL;DR: The associations found between exposure to NO2 and cognitive functions suggest that traffic-related air pollution may have an adverse effect on neurodevelopment, especially early in life, even at low exposure levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of the number of measurement sites on land use regression models in estimating local air pollution

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the number of potential predictors and the variable selection algorithm used, and the consequences of the use of LUR predictions in regression models for a health outcome were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association between GIS-based exposure to urban air pollution during pregnancy and birth weight in the INMA Sabadell Cohort.
Inmaculada Aguilera,Mònica Guxens,Raquel Garcia-Esteban,Teresa Corbella,Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen,Carles M. Foradada,Jordi Sunyer +6 more
TL;DR: Time–activity patterns during pregnancy complement GIS-based models in exposure assessment and underscores the negative role of vehicle exhaust pollutants in reproductive health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early-life exposure to outdoor air pollution and respiratory health, ear infections, and eczema in infants from the INMA study.
Inmaculada Aguilera,Marie Pedersen,Raquel Garcia-Esteban,Ferran Ballester,Mikel Basterrechea,Ana Esplugues,Ana Fernández-Somoano,Aitana Lertxundi,Adonina Tardón,Jordi Sunyer +9 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that early-life exposure to ambient air pollution may increase the risk of upper and lower respiratory tract infections in infants is supported.
