Personal exposure to traffic-related air pollutants and relationships with respiratory symptoms and oxidative stress: A pilot cross-sectional study among urban green space workers.
8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine [8- OH dG]). Associations between exposure and health outcomes were investigated using comparison tests and linear regression models, after stratification by present-day smoking status. Spatial ...
Impact of the human papillomavirus status on the development of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in women negative for intraepithelial lesions or malignancy at the baseline: A 9-year Swedish nested case-control follow-up study.
Baseline liquid-based cytology samples were tested for HPV. Conditional logistic regression analysis was used to calculate odds ratios (OR s) with confidence intervals (CI s). RESULTS The risk of future ...
Socioeconomic factors contributing to under-five mortality in sub-Saharan Africa: a decomposition analysis
using a regression-based decomposition of a Gini-type index. Results The Gini index – measuring the variability in U5M related to the four socioeconomic factors – varied from 0.006 (95% CI: 0.001–0.010) ...
Temperature-related changes in airborne allergenic pollen abundance and seasonality across the northern hemisphere: a retrospective data analysis
associated with anthropogenic climate change. Seasonal regressions (slopes) of variation in pollen load and pollen season duration over time were compared to Tmax, cumulative degree day Tmax, Tmin, cumulative ...
Personal exposure to traffic-related air pollutants and relationships with respiratory symptoms and oxidative stress: A pilot cross-sectional study among urban green space workers
respiratory/urinary biomarkers (exhaled nitric oxide [NO], 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine [8- OH dG]). Associations between exposure and health outcomes were investigated using comparison tests and linear regression models, ...
Estimating the Reliability of Low-Abundant Signals and Limited Replicate Measurements through MS2 Peak Area in SWATH
appears to be largely insensitive to variation in samples or acquisition conditions, suggesting a device-intrinsic property. By using a power regression, it is shown that the MS2 peak area can be used to ...
Neonatal factors predictive for respiratory and gastro-intestinal morbidity after esophageal atresia repair.
until only significant variables remained in the model. Multinomial logistic regression was used to assess risk factors for different evolutions of complication. Model parameter estimates were used to ...
Decreasing rates of major lower-extremity amputation in people with diabetes but not in those without: a nationwide study in Belgium.
amputation rate (first per year) in the populations with and without diabetes for major and minor LEA s, and the corresponding relative risks. To test for time trends, Poisson regression models were fitted. ...
Relationships between aeroallergen levels and hospital admissions for asthma in the Brussels-Capital Region: a daily time series analysis.
were performed. Effects up to 6 days after exposure were captured by combining quasi-Poisson regression with distributed lag models, adjusting for seasonal and long-term trends, day of the week, public ...
Short-term effects of nitrogen dioxide on hospital admissions for cardiovascular disease in Wallonia, Belgium.
hospitals. Analyses were performed using the quasi-Poisson regression model adjusted for seasonality, long-term trend, day of the week, and temperature. Our study confirms the existence of an association ...
