Assessing children's ultraviolet radiation exposure: The use of parental recall via telephone interviews
OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the validity of a parental report measure of children's solar protection behaviors. METHODS: Fifty-eight children had skin color assessed twice with a colorimeter. Between measurement sessions, parents were interviewed by telephone to assess children's indoor-outdoor status and solar protection across 40 hourly intervals. RESULTS: Parental report of child's indoor-outdoor status was significantly correlated with t…
Assessing children's ultraviolet radiation exposure: The potential usefulness of a colorimeter
OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the colorimeter as an objective measure of children's ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure. METHODS: Fifty-eight children, ages 6 to 9 years, attended two summer measurement sessions, with 46 attending a subsequent winter session. RESULTS: Comparisons between summer sessions for the L* scale showed that only the upper arm significantly changed in the tanner direction, while b* scale values indicated significant tan…
Impact of influenza epidemics on mortality in the United States from October 1972 to May 1985
Baseline levels of mortality in the United States in the absence of influenza epidemics were estimated using cyclical regression models applied to national vital statistics from October 1972 to May 1985. Models were developed by age and by region. Results from 1983 to 1985 are preliminary. More mortality than predicted by the theoretical baseline occurred during nine influenza seasons. Epidemics with high morbidity in children and young adults oc…
