Temporal variation in drinking water turbidity and diagnosed gastroenteritis in Milwaukee
Daily counts of diagnosed gastroenteritis (gastrointestinal events) in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, from January 1992 through April 1993 were compared with reported daily turbidity from the two drinking water treatment plants serving the county. Turbidity in both plants was associated with an increased number of gastrointestinal events even after exclusion of a major documented outbreak of cryptosporidiosis. During the 434-day period prior to the…
Ambient air pollution and hospitalization for congestive heart failure among elderly people in seven large US cities
OBJECTIVES. Preexisting data sets were used to investigate the association between hospital admissions for congestive heart failure and air pollutants. METHODS. Medicare hospital admissions data, ambient air pollution monitoring data, and meteorological data were used to create daily values of hospital admissions for congestive heart failure, maximum hourly temperature, and maximum hourly levels of carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxid…
