  • Association between Bone Lead Concentration and Aggression in Youth from a Sub-Cohort of the Birth to Twenty Cohort

    Open AccessNonhlanhla Tlotleng, Nisha Naicker et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

    Background: An association between blood-lead levels and aggression has been demonstrated in children and adolescent youth in South Africa. However, there are limited studies that have assessed aggression as an outcome for cumulative lead exposure using bone lead concentration. This study aims to assess the association between bone lead concentration and aggressive behaviour among a sample of youth in South Africa. Methods: Bone lead in 100 parti…

  • Race/ethnic differences in prevalence and correlates of posttraumatic stress disorder in World Trade Center responders

    Julia M Whealin, Dianne Ciro et al.ARTICLEPsychological Trauma Theory…2021

    Collectively, results of this study underscore the burden of differential vulnerability that can contribute to higher prevalence of PTSD in certain cultural subgroups following large magnitude traumatic events. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)

  • Combining Three Cohorts of World Trade Center Rescue/Recovery Workers for Assessing Cancer Incidence and Mortality

    Open AccessRobert M Brackbill, Robert Brackbill et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2021

    Three cohorts including the Fire Department of the City of New York (FDNY), the World Trade Center Health Registry (WTCHR), and the General Responder Cohort (GRC), each funded by the World Trade Center Health Program have reported associations between WTC-exposures and cancer. Results have generally been consistent with effect estimates for excess incidence for all cancers ranging from 6 to 14% above background rates. Pooling would increase sampl…

  • Development and Validation of a Clinical Frailty Index for the World Trade Center General Responder Cohort

    Open AccessGhalib Bello, Katherine Ornstein et al.ARTICLEJournal of Aging and Health2021References: 1

    Objectives: To develop and validate a clinical frailty index to characterize aging among responders to the 9/11 World Trade Center (WTC) attacks. Methods: This study was conducted on health monitoring data on a sample of 6197 responders. A clinical frailty index, WTC FI-Clinical, was developed according to the cumulative deficit model of frailty. The validity of the resulting index was assessed using all-cause mortality as an endpoint. Its associ…

  • Retrospective Assessment of Risk Factors for Head and Neck Cancer Among World Trade Center General Responders

    Open AccessMichelle T B Manderski, Kathleen Black et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2020

    Objective: To assess the reliability of a questionnaire designed to reconstruct risk factors for head and neck cancer relative to the 9/11 World Trade Center (WTC) response and over the lifetime. Methods: As part of a nested case-control study, 200 WTC Health Program (WTCHP) General Responder Cohort (GRC) members completed a newly-developed study questionnaire via telephone (with a trained interviewer) or online (self-administered). We assessed a…

  • Gender and Race/Ethnicity Differences in Lead Dose Biomarkers

    Keson Theppeang, Thomas A Gla et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2008References: 61

    Objectives. We sought to identify predictors of lead concentrations in the blood, tibias, and patellae of older adults and to describe differences by gender, race/ethnicity, and other factors that can influence lead toxicokinetics and, thus modify health effects. Methods. Participants aged 50 to 70 years (N=1140) were randomly identified from selected neighborhoods in Baltimore, Maryland. We measured lead concentrations by anodic stripping voltam…
