Vajanapoom N, Shy C, Neas L, LOOMIS D
J Expo Anal Environ Epidemiol . 2001 Jun; 11(2):97-102. PMID: 11409010
Lack of daily data on airborne particles has been a common problem in an air pollution research. To deal with this problem, a regression model was developed to estimate daily...

Mortimer K, Tager I, Dockery D, Neas L, Redline S
Am J Respir Crit Care Med . 2000 Nov; 162(5):1838-45. PMID: 11069823
Within a cohort of 846 inner-city asthmatic children aged 4 to 9 yr, we looked for subgroups that were more susceptible to the effects of summer ozone. Daily diaries were...

Laden F, Neas L, Dockery D, Schwartz J
Environ Health Perspect . 2000 Oct; 108(10):941-7. PMID: 11049813
Previously we reported that fine particle mass (particulate matter [less than and equal to] 2.5 microm; PM(2.5)), which is primarily from combustion sources, but not coarse particle mass, which is...

Klemm R, Mason Jr R, Heilig C, Neas L, Dockery D
J Air Waste Manag Assoc . 2000 Aug; 50(7):1215-22. PMID: 10939214
In 1996, Schwartz, Dockery, and Neas reported that daily mortality was more strongly associated with concentrations of PM2.5 than with concentrations of larger particles (coarse mass [CM]) in six U.S....

Laden F, Neas L, Tolbert P, Holmes M, Hankinson S, Spiegelman D, et al.
Am J Epidemiol . 2000 Jul; 152(1):41-9. PMID: 10901328
Electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) have been hypothesized to increase the risk of breast cancer, and electric blankets represent an important source of exposure to EMFs. The authors examined the...

Schwartz J, Neas L
Epidemiology . 2000 Jan; 11(1):6-10. PMID: 10615836
Numerous studies have reported associations between airborne particles and a range of respiratory outcomes from symptoms to mortality. Current attention has been focused on the characteristics of these particles responsible...

Epidemiology . 1999 Sep; 10(5):550-3. PMID: 10468430
We assessed the impact of summertime haze episodes on twice daily peak flow measurements of children in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Height-adjusted peak flows were regressed on weather and air pollution concentrations....
