Armstrong B, Gasparrini A, Tobias A, Sera F
BMC Med Res Methodol
. 2020 Jan;
20(1):15.
PMID: 31992211
Background: Regression analyses of time series of disease counts on environmental determinants are a prominent component of environmental epidemiology. For planning such studies, it can be useful to predict the...

Lee W, Bell M, Gasparrini A, Armstrong B, Sera F, Hwang S, et al.
Environ Int
. 2017 Nov;
110:123-130.
PMID: 29089167
Although diurnal temperature range (DTR) is a key index of climate change, few studies have reported the health burden of DTR and its temporal changes at a multi-country scale. Therefore,...

Guo Y, Gasparrini A, Armstrong B, Tawatsupa B, Tobias A, Lavigne E, et al.
Environ Health Perspect
. 2017 Sep;
125(8):087006.
PMID: 28886602
Background: Few studies have examined variation in the associations between heat waves and mortality in an international context. Objectives: We aimed to systematically examine the impacts of heat waves on...

Butland B, Atkinson R, Milojevic A, Heal M, Doherty R, Armstrong B, et al.
Open Heart
. 2016 Sep;
3(2):e000429.
PMID: 27621827
Objectives: To investigate associations between daily concentrations of air pollution and myocardial infarction (MI), ST-elevation MI (STEMI) and non-ST-elevation MI (NSTEMI). Methods: Modelled daily ground-level gaseous, total and speciated particulate...

Guo Y, Gasparrini A, Armstrong B, Tawatsupa B, Tobias A, Lavigne E, et al.
Environ Health Perspect
. 2016 Jun;
124(10):1554-1559.
PMID: 27258598
Background: The evidence and method are limited for the associations between mortality and temperature variability (TV) within or between days. Objectives: We developed a novel method to calculate TV and...

Gasparrini A, Guo Y, Hashizume M, Lavigne E, Tobias A, Zanobetti A, et al.
Am J Epidemiol
. 2016 May;
183(11):1027-36.
PMID: 27188948
Few studies have examined the variation in mortality risk associated with heat during the summer. Here, we apply flexible statistical models to investigate the issue by using a large multicountry...

Methods to Estimate Acclimatization to Urban Heat Island Effects on Heat- and Cold-Related Mortality
Milojevic A, Armstrong B, Gasparrini A, Bohnenstengel S, Barratt B, Wilkinson P
Environ Health Perspect
. 2016 Feb;
124(7):1016-22.
PMID: 26859738
Background: Investigators have examined whether heat mortality risk is increased in neighborhoods subject to the urban heat island (UHI) effect but have not identified degrees of difference in susceptibility to...

Lopez-Espinosa M, Mondal D, Armstrong B, Eskenazi B, Fletcher T
Environ Health Perspect
. 2016 Jan;
124(8):1269-75.
PMID: 26794451
Background: Exposure to some perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), such as perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHxS), perfluorooctanoate (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), and perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA), may alter levels of sex hormones and insulin-like growth...

Gasparrini A, Guo Y, Hashizume M, Kinney P, Petkova E, Lavigne E, et al.
Environ Health Perspect
. 2015 May;
123(11):1200-7.
PMID: 25933359
Background: Recent investigations have reported a decline in the heat-related mortality risk during the last decades. However, these studies are frequently based on modeling approaches that do not fully characterize...

Armstrong B, Gasparrini A, Tobias A
BMC Med Res Methodol
. 2014 Nov;
14:122.
PMID: 25417555
Background: The time stratified case cross-over approach is a popular alternative to conventional time series regression for analysing associations between time series of environmental exposures (air pollution, weather) and counts...
