Multi-Continental Multimedia Model of Pollutant Intake and Application to Impacts of Global Emissions and Globally Traded Goods.
(2011)
Decision-makers seeking to more comprehensively assess and mitigate the environmental health impacts of products and chemicals require a tool to quantify the impacts associated with global emissions, global supply chains, ...
A Gene-environment Study of Metallothionein Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms, Mercury Biomarker Levels and Peripheral Nerve Function.
(2011)
Mercury (Hg) is a potent neurotoxicant. Recent studies have suggested that several genes that mediate mercury metabolism are polymorphic in humans. We hypothesized that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in metallothionein ...
Multiple Imputation for Measurement Error Correction Based on a Calibration Sample.
(2010)
In much of applied statistics variables of interest are measured with error. In particular, regression with covariates that are subject to measurement error requires adjustment to avoid biased estimates and invalid inference. ...
Linkages Between Extreme Precipitation, Water Quality, and Gastrointestinal Illness.
(2012)
Background: The frequency, intensity, and duration of extreme weather events are expected to increase based on current climate model projections. Such changes, particularly those associated with extreme precipitation, will ...
Mimicking partial to total placental insufficiency in a rabbit model of cerebral palsy
(Springer International PublishingWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-12)
All placental abruptions begin as partial abruptions, which sometimes manifest as fetal bradycardia. The progression from partial to total abruption was mimicked by a new rabbit model of placental insufficiency, and we ...
