Journal ArticleDOI
Lung function decline in relation to mould and dampness in the home: the longitudinal European Community Respiratory Health Survey ECRHS II
Dan Norbäck,Jan-Paul Zock,Estel Plana,Joachim Heinrich,Cecilie Svanes,Jordi Sunyer,Nino Künzli,Simona Villani,Mario Olivieri,Argo Soon,Deborah Jarvis +10 more
TL;DR: Dampness and indoor mould growth is common in dwellings, and the presence of damp is a risk factor for lung function decline, especially in women, which was significant when excluding those with asthma at baseline.
Journal ArticleDOI
Allergic sensitization owing to 'second-hand' cat exposure in schools.
TL;DR: This study has shown that cat allergens can be found in school dust samples, and no study has provided evidence that public places contribute to increased atopic sensitization rates in children.
Journal ArticleDOI
Residential radon and risk of lung cancer in Eastern Germany.
Michaela Kreuzer,Joachim Heinrich,Gabi Wölke,Angelika Schaffrath Rosario,Michael Gerken,Juergen Wellmann,Gert Keller,Lothar Kreienbrock,H-Erich Wichmann +8 more
TL;DR: A case-control study in Thuringia and Saxony in Eastern Germany during 1990-1997 indicates a small increase in lung cancer risk as a result of residential radon that is consistent with the findings of previous indoor radon and miner studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Health effects of chronic noise exposure in pregnancy and childhood: A systematic review initiated by ENRIECO
Cynthia Hohmann,Linus Grabenhenrich,Yvonne de Kluizenaar,Christina Tischer,Joachim Heinrich,Chih-Mei Chen,Carel Thijs,Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen,Thomas Keil +8 more
TL;DR: Chronic noise exposure during pregnancy was not associated with birth weight, preterm birth, congenital anomalies, perinatal and neonatal death, and associations between chronic noise and health in children were based mainly on cross-sectional studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determinants of house dust endotoxin in three European countries – the AIRALLERG study
Mariëlla Giovannangelo,Ulrike Gehring,Emma Nordling,Marieke Oldenwening,G. Terpstra,Tom Bellander,Tom Bellander,Gerard Hoek,Joachim Heinrich,Bert Brunekreef +9 more
TL;DR: Housing characteristics did not accurately predict the endotoxin concentrations in house dust, and could only partly explain the differences between countries, according to a standardized sampling, storage, and analysis protocol.
