An area-level model of vehicle-pedestrian injury collisions with implications for land use and transportation planning
TL;DR: The development of a multivariate, area-level regression model of vehicle-pedestrian injury collisions based on environmental and population data in 176 San Francisco, California census tracts is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of DDT and DDE with Birth Weight and Length of Gestation in the Child Health and Development Studies, 1959–1967
TL;DR: Given the persistence of DDT in the environment and its continuing role in malaria control, studies using more robust data should continue to assess this relation.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Obesity increases the risk of developing cataract overall, and of posterior subcapsular (PSC) cataracts in particular; the etiology of PSCCataract may be mediated at least in part by glucose intolerance and insulin resistance, even in the absence of clinical diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: There is little evidence that syndromic surveillance mitigates the effects of disease outbreaks through earlier detection and response, and should not be relied upon as a principal outbreak detection tool.
Journal ArticleDOI

June M. Weintraub,Walter C. Willett,Bernard Rosner,Graham A. Colditz,Johanna M. Seddon,Susan E. Hankinson +5 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that any healing from damage due to cigarette smoking occurs at a very modest pace, and they emphasize the importance of never starting to smoke or quitting early in life.
