Who is in the near market for bicycle sharing? Identifying current, potential, and unlikely users of a public bicycle share program in Vancouver, Canada
Findings can help inform targeted marketing and outreach to increase public bicycle share uptake in the population
Bicycling crashes on streetcar (tram) or train tracks
Given our results, prevention efforts might be directed at individual knowledge, bicycle tires, or route design, but their potential for success is likely to differ. Although it may be possible to reach a broader audience with continued advice about how to avoid track crashes, the persistence and frequency of these crashes and their unpredictable circumstances indicates that other solutions are needed. Using tires wider than streetcar or train fl…
Bicycling crash circumstances vary by route type
These data supplement our previous analyses of relative risks by route type by indicating the types of crashes that occur on each route type. This information can guide municipal engineers and planners towards improvements that would make cycling safer
Evaluating the impact of environmental interventions across 2 countries
There are scientific and practical challenges in evaluating PBSP. Methodological challenges included: appropriate sample recruitment, exchangeability of treatment and control groups, controlling unmeasured confounding, and specifying exposure. Practical challenges arise in the evaluation of environmental interventions such as a PBSP: one of the companies involved filed for bankruptcy, a Hurricane devastated New York City, and one PBSP was not imp…
Exposure-based Traffic Crash Injury Rates by Mode of Travel in British Columbia
Personal and trip characteristics associated with safety equipment use by injured adult bicyclists
In two of Canada's largest cities, helmets were the most widely used safety equipment. Measures to increase use of visibility aids on both daytime and night-time cycling trips may help prevent crashes
Route Infrastructure and the Risk of Injuries to Bicyclists
Objectives. We compared cycling injury risks of 14 route types and other route infrastructure features. Methods. We recruited 690 city residents injured while cycling in Toronto or Vancouver, Canada. A case-crossover design compared route infrastructure at each injury site to that of a randomly selected control site from the same trip. Results. Of 14 route types, cycle tracks had the lowest risk (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 0.11; 95% confidence in…

Motivators and deterrents of bicycling
Recruitment of Healthy First-Trimester Pregnant Women
Water and sewage systems, socio-demographics, and duration of residence associated with endemic intestinal infectious diseases
This large cohort study, with objective data on exposures and outcomes, demonstrated associations between endemic infectious intestinal diseases and factors related to water supply, sewage disposal, socio-demographics, and duration of residency. The results did not always follow prior expectations based on studies examining outbreaks and single systems, and underscore the importance of studying factors associated with endemic disease across water…
Built Environment Influences on Healthy Transportation Choices
Rates of Congenital Anomalies and Other Adverse Birth Outcomes in an Offspring Cohort of Registered Nurses from British Columbia, Canada
Public Opinions about Participating in Health Research
Participation in health research appears to be viewed favourably by members of the public, and participation may be highest when university or hospital-based researchers are able to contact subjects directly using information from government databases

Effects of de-industrialization on unemployment, re-employment, and work conditions in a manufacturing workforce
This study shows that future health studies should pay particular attention to long-term employees in manufacturing who may have gone through de-industrialization resulting in exposures to a combination of sustained job insecurity, cyclical unemployment, and adverse physical and psychosocial work conditions
Diet Survey of Two Cultural Groups in a Coastal British Columbia Community
Opportunities for a Broader Understanding of Work and Health
Mortality and cancer incidence among sawmill workers exposed to chlorophenate wood preservatives
OBJECTIVES: This study examined the association between exposure to chlorophenates and the risk of soft tissue sarcoma; non-Hodgkin's lymphoma; Hodgkin's disease; and cancers of the lung, nose, and nasopharynx. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was conducted of 26487 workers employed for at least 1 year between 1950 and 1985 in 11 chlorophenate-using and 3 non-using sawmills in British Columbia, Canada. Exposures by job were ascertained with …
