Invited Commentary Invited Commentary: Heterogeneity of Particulate Matter Health Risks
Ambient particulate matter varies in composition and toxicity; therefore, some heterogeneity in risk per unit mass can be anticipated. In this issue of the Journal (Am J Epidemiol 2007;166:880–888), Dominici et al. explore temporal and spatial effect modification of particulate matter potency with the goal of gaining insights about how differences in the mixture may affect toxicity of the parti...

متن کاملInvited Commentary Invited Commentary: Physical Activity, Mortality, and Genetics
The importance of regular physical activity to human health has been recognized for a long time, and a physically active lifestyle is now defined as a major component of public health policies. The independent contribution of regular physical activity to lower morbidity and mortality rates is generally accepted, and the biologic mechanisms mediating these health effects are actively investigate...
متن کاملInvited Commentary: Stress and Mortality
In this issue of the Journal, Nielsen et al. (Am J Epidemiol 2008;168:481 91) use data from a large Danish study to provide evidence that self-reported stress is associated with increased all-cause mortality over the next 20 years. The finding is remarkable. In this commentary, the authors explore what is really meant by stress; they argue that it would be naı̈ve to view stress as reported in th...
متن کاملEstimating the Exposure–Response Relationships between Particulate Matter and Mortality within the APHEA Multicity Project
Several studies have reported significant health effects of air pollution even at low levels of air pollutants, but in most of theses studies linear nonthreshold relations were assumed. We investigated the exposure-response association between ambient particles and mortality in the 22 European cities participating in the APHEA (Air Pollution and Health--A European Approach) project, which is th...
