Modeling spatial effects of PM₂.₅ on term low birth weight in Los Angeles County

Creator:: Coker, Eric, Ghosh, Jokay, Jerrett, Michael, Gomez-Rubio, Virgilio, Beckerman, Bernardo, Cockburn, Myles, Liverani, Silvia, Su, Jason, Li, Arthur, Kile, Molly L., Ritz, Beate, and Molitor, John
Abstract:: Air pollution epidemiological studies suggest that elevated exposure to fine particulate matter (PM₂.₅) is associated with higher prevalence of term low birth weight (TLBW). Previous studies have generally assumed the exposure–response of PM₂.₅ on TLBW to be the same throughout a large geographical area. Health effects related to PM₂.₅ exposures,...

Ambient PM₂.₅, O₃, and NO₂ Exposures and Associations with Mortality over 16 Years of Follow-Up in the Canadian Census Health and Environment Cohort (CanCHEC)

Creator:: Crouse, Dan L., Peters, Paul A., Hystad, Perry, Brook, Jeffrey R., van Donkelaar, Aaron, Martin, Randall V., Villeneuve, Paul J., Jerrett, Michael, Goldberg, Mark S., Pope, C. Arden, Brauer, Michael, Brook, Robert D., Menard, Richard, and Burnett, Richard T.
Abstract:: Background: Few studies examining the associations between long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and mortality have considered multiple pollutants when assessing changes in exposure due to residential mobility during follow-up. Objective: We investigated associations between cause-specific mortality and ambient concentrations of fine particulate matter (≤ 2.5 μm; PM₂.₅), ozone (O₃),...

Social Determinants to Real FreedomsAn Empirical Development of the Capabilities Approach

Creator:: Trujillo, Michael A.
Abstract:: In the Capabilities Approach literature “capabilities” are the real freedoms individuals possess to achieve certain “functionings,” which are the doings and beings that constitute a good life. I argue that this approach requires, or at least can benefit from, an account of the psychosocial mechanisms involved in capability limitation. The...

Examination of Multiple Air Pollutant Exposure, the Food Environment, and Low Birth Weight in Los Angeles, County

Creator:: Coker, Eric S.
Abstract:: Exposure to urban outdoor air pollution is ubiquitous and low birth weight represents an important health disparity in the United States. While previous research suggests that exposure to outdoor air pollutants are associated with term low birth weight, few studies have evaluated the effects of multipollutant outdoor air exposures or...

Characterizing PM2.5 with Different Source Contributions

Creator:: Perez, Allison Mae S.
Abstract:: Ubiquitous fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposures significantly impact global public health, yet little is known about the mechanisms causing these known adverse health effects. Oxidative stress due to PM2.5 associated chemical constituents, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), is a proposed possible mechanism for PM2.5 mediated health effects. Variations in...

The Impacts of Urban Environmental Policies on Infant Birth Weight : Integrating Health and Sorting Models

Creator:: Long, Deng
Abstract:: Environmental regulations have contributed to environmental quality improvements over the past century in the U.S. Potential consequences of environmental regulations for economic growth and productivity have been widely examined in the economics literature. However, there’s limited research on how such policies affect human health, fetuses and infants especially. In this...

Utilization of the Zebrafish Model for Investigating Nitrated Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Developmental Toxicity

Creator:: Chlebowski, Anna C.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are among the most widely known and studied environmental contaminants, originating from a range of natural and anthropogenic sources. PAHs are known to occur in the environment as complex mixtures, containing both unsubstituted PAHs, as well as a range of PAH derivatives. Among the less-studied of...
