TL;DR: The exposure to air pollution and its impact on deaths, disease burden, and life expectancy in every state of India in 2017 was estimated to inform action at subnational levels in India.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fungal spores : A critical review of the toxicological and epidemiological evidence as a basis for occupational exposure limit setting
TL;DR: Human challenge and epidemiological studies support fairly consistent LOELs of approximately 105 spores/m3 for diverse fungal species in nonsensitised populations, especially to mycotoxin-producing and pathogenic species, after repeated exposures.

Family size, infection and atopy: the first decade of the "hygiene hypothesis".
TL;DR: Changes in family size over the last 30 years do not appear to explain much of the reported increase in asthma or hay fever prevalence.
