Grahame T, Klemm R, Schlesinger R
J Air Waste Manag Assoc . 2014 Jul; 64(6):620-60. PMID: 25039199
Unlabelled: In 2012, the WHO classified diesel emissions as carcinogenic, and its European branch suggested creating a public health standard for airborne black carbon (BC). In 2011, EU researchers found...

Grahame T, Schlesinger R
Part Fibre Toxicol . 2012 Jun; 9:21. PMID: 22713210
Particulate matter (PM) pollution is responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths worldwide, the majority due to cardiovascular disease (CVD). While many potential pathophysiological mechanisms have been proposed, there is...

Grahame T, Schlesinger R
Air Qual Atmos Health . 2010 Apr; 3(1):3-27. PMID: 20376169
A major public health goal is to determine linkages between specific pollution sources and adverse health outcomes. This paper provides an integrative evaluation of the database examining effects of vehicular...

Schlesinger R
Inhal Toxicol . 2007 Aug; 19(10):811-32. PMID: 17687714
Ambient air particulate matter (PM) originates as either primary particles emitted directly into the atmosphere from a specific source or as secondary particles produced from atmospheric chemical reactions between precursor...

Grahame T, Schlesinger R
Inhal Toxicol . 2007 May; 19(6-7):457-81. PMID: 17497526
Researchers and regulators have often considered preferentially regulating the types of ambient airborne particulate matter (PM) most relevant to human health effects. While few would argue the inherent merits of...

Cohen M, Sisco M, Baker K, Bowser D, Chen L, Schlesinger R
J Toxicol Environ Health A . 2003 Feb; 66(1):39-55. PMID: 12587290
A health hazard to welders is development of lung cancer. It is believed that this is likely due, in part, to the presence in welding fumes of several hexavalent chromium...

Schlesinger R, Cassee F
Inhal Toxicol . 2003 Feb; 15(3):197-235. PMID: 12579454
Epidemiological studies have provided evidence for an association between exposure to ambient particulate matter and increased mortality and morbidity. However, the exact physicochemical nature of the responsible components is not...

Zelikoff J, Chen L, Cohen M, Fang K, Gordon T, Li Y, et al.
Inhal Toxicol . 2003 Jan; 15(2):131-50. PMID: 12528043
Respiratory-tract infection, specifically pneumonia, contributes substantially to the increased morbidity and mortality among elderly individuals exposed to airborne particulate matter of <10 microm diameter (PM(10)). These epidemiological findings suggest that...

Zelikoff J, Schermerhorn K, Fang K, Cohen M, Schlesinger R
Environ Health Perspect . 2002 Nov; 110 Suppl 5:871-5. PMID: 12426150
Epidemiologic studies demonstrate that infection, specifically pneumonia, contributes substantially to the increased morbidity and mortality among elderly individuals following exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM). This laboratory has previously demonstrated...

Schlesinger R, Cohen M, Gordon T, Nadziejko C, Zelikoff J, Sisco M, et al.
Res Rep Health Eff Inst . 2002 Sep; (109):1-40; discussion 41-51. PMID: 12322853
Although acute exposure to ozone (03*) has been shown to influence the severity and prevalence of airway hyperresponsiveness, information has been lacking on effects due to long-term exposure at relatively...
