Global estimates of mortality associated with long-term exposure to outdoor fine particulate matter

Richard T. Burnett, +54 more
TL;DR: PM2.5 exposure may be related to additional causes of death than the five considered by the GBD and that incorporation of risk information from other, nonoutdoor, particle sources leads to underestimation of disease burden, especially at higher concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-Term Ozone Exposure and Mortality in a Large Prospective Study

TL;DR: Findings derived from this large-scale prospective study suggest that long-term ambient O3 contributes to risk of respiratory and circulatory mortality and substantial health and environmental benefits may be achieved by implementing further measures aimed at controlling O3 concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of 23 new prostate cancer susceptibility loci using the iCOGS custom genotyping array

Rosalind A. Eeles, +156 more
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a custom Illumina array (iCOGS) was used to genotype 211,155 SNPs in blood DNA from 25,074 prostate cancer cases and 24,272 controls from the international PRACTICAL Consortium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association analysis of more than 120,000 individuals identifies 15 new susceptibility loci for breast cancer

Kyriaki Michailidou, +283 more
- 09 Mar 2015 - 
TL;DR: 15 new loci associated with breast cancer at P < 5 × 10−8 are identified, and one association appears to be driven by an amino acid substitution encoded in EXO1, which is found in women of European ancestry.
