quality problems encountered when working with variables related to social determinants of …

At the start of the postgenomics era, most Parkinson's disease (PD) etiology cannot be
explained by our knowledge of genetic or environmental factors alone. For more than a …

Background Epidemiological findings are inconsistent regarding the associations between
air pollution exposure during pregnancy and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Several …

Background: The prevalence of autistic disorder (AD), a serious developmental condition,
has risen dramatically over the past two decades, but high-quality population-based …

Evidence from animal and cell models suggests that pesticides cause a neurodegenerative
process leading to Parkinson's disease (PD). Human data are insufficient to support this …

Parkinson disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder particularly characterized by the

alterations of neuronal aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) enzymes were associated with …

Objectives: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) increased risk of Parkinson disease (PD) in many but
not all epidemiologic studies, giving rise to speculations about modifying factors. A recent …
