Effect of residential proximity to traffic on respiratory disorders in school children in upper Silesian Industrial Zone, Poland.
OBJECTIVE A number of studies show an association between traffic-related air pollution and adverse respiratory health effects in children. However, most evidence relates to the regions with low or moderate levels of ambient air pollution. The study was undertaken to assess the impact of traffic-related air pollution on respiratory health status in children living in the area of high levels of ...

Our objective is to estimate time series of BMI values by birth cohorts instead of measurement years. We use five regression models to estimate the BMI trends of non-Hispanic US-born black and white children and adolescents ages 2-19 between 1941 and 2004. The increas...

متن کاملProtein-energy malnutrition contributes to increased structural chromosomal alteration frequencies in Argentinean children.
The relationship between protein-energy malnutrition and genetic damage has been studied in human beings and laboratory animals, but results are still conflicting. The aim of the present study was to assess the induction of structural chromosomal aberrations in peripheral blood lymphocytes of children with primary protein-energy malnutrition. A case-control study was performed. Samples were obt...
