Journal ArticleDOI
Mortality risk and PM2.5 air pollution in the USA: an analysis of a national prospective cohort
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that elevated risks of mortality, especially cardiovascular disease mortality, are associated with long-term exposure to PM2.5 air pollution in US nationwide adult cohorts constructed from public-use NHIS data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identifying vulnerable populations through an examination of the association between multipollutant profiles and poverty.
John Molitor,Jason Su,Nuoo-Ting Molitor,Virgilio Gómez Rubio,Sylvia Richardson,David I. Hastie,Rachel Morello-Frosch,Michael Jerrett +7 more
TL;DR: The modeling approach proposed goes beyond single-pollutant models in that it allows the association between entire multipollutant profiles of exposures with poverty levels in small geographic areas in Los Angeles County to be determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
The association between contextual socioeconomic factors and prevalent asthma in a cohort of Southern California school children.
Ketan Shankardass,Rob McConnell,Joel Milam,Kiros Berhane,Zaria Tatalovich,John Wilson,Michael Jerrett +6 more
TL;DR: There was a consistent inverse association between male unemployment and asthma across the inter-quartile range of community unemployment rates, indicating that asthma rates increase as community SEP increases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hazardous Air Pollutants Associated with Upstream Oil and Natural Gas Development: A Critical Synthesis of Current Peer-Reviewed Literature
TL;DR: This review analyzed recent global peer-reviewed articles to identify HAPs associated with upstream ONG development, identify their specific sources in upstream processes, and examine the potential for adverse health outcomes from H APs emitted during these phases of hydrocarbon development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rob McConnell,Kiros Berhane,Jassy Molitor,Frank D. Gilliland,Nino Künzli,Peter S. Thorne,Duncan Thomas,W. James Gauderman,Edward L. Avol,Fred Lurmann,Edward B. Rappaport,Michael Jerrett,John M. Peters +12 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that dog ownership, a source of residential exposure to endotoxin, may worsen the relationship between air pollution and respiratory symptoms in asthmatic children.
