Chronic exposure to biomass fuel is associated with increased carotid artery intima-media thickness and a higher prevalence of atherosclerotic plaque

Effect of urbanisation on the relationship between total serum IgE and asthma

Checkley, William; Robinson, Colin L.; Baumann, Lauren M.; Romero Rivero, Karina Maribel; Combe, Juan M.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Wise, Robert A.; Hamilton, Robert G.; Gonzalvez, Guillermo; Cama, Vitaliano; Hansel, Nadia N. (European Respiratory Society, 2013)

It is unclear if the relationship of total serum IgE with asthma varies with degree of urbanisation. We hypothesised that the relationship of total serum IgE to asthma is more pronounced in an urban versus a rural environment. ...

BACKGROUND: Chronic lung disease is a leading contributor to the global disease burden; however, beyond tobacco smoke, we do not fully understand what risk factors contribute to lung function decline in low-income and ...
Epidemiology and risk factors of asthma-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease overlap in low- and middle-income countries

Morgan, Brooks W.; Grigsby, Matthew R.; Siddharthan, Trishul; Chowdhury, Muhammad; Rubinstein, Adolfo; Gutierrez, Laura; Irazola, Vilma; Miranda, J. Jaime; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Alam, Dewan; Wise, Robert A.; Checkley, William (Elsevier, 2018)

BACKGROUND: Asthma-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) overlap (ACO) represents the confluence of bronchial airway hyperreactivity and chronic airflow limitation and has been described as leading to worse lung ...
The health and social implications of household air pollution and respiratory diseases

Simkovich, Suzanne M.; Goodman, Dina; Roa, Christian; Crocker, Mary E.; Gianella, Gonzalo E.; Kirenga, Bruce J.; Wise, Robert A.; Checkley, William (Springer, 2019)

Approximately three billion individuals are exposed to household air pollution (HAP) from the burning of biomass fuels worldwide. Household air pollution is responsible for 2.9 million annual deaths and causes significant ...
Increased Cardiometabolic Risk and Worsening Hypoxemia at High Altitude

Miele, Catherine H.; Schwartz, Alan R.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Pham, Luu; Wise, Robert A.; Davila-Roman, Victor G.; Jun, Jonathan C.; Polotsky, Vsevolod Y.; Miranda, J. Jaime; León-Velarde, Fabiola; Checkley, William (Mary Ann Liebert, 2016)

Vyas, Kaetan J., David Danz, Robert H. Gilman, Robert A. Wise, Fabiola Leon-Velarde, J. Jaime Miranda, and William Checkley. Noninvasive assessment of excessive erythrocytosis as a screening method for chronic mountain ...
Patterns of Body Composition Relating to Chronic Respiratory Diseases Among Adults in Four Resource-Poor Settings in Peru

Trompeter, Grace; Grigsby, Matthew R.; Miele, Catherine H.; Wise, Robert A.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Miranda, J. Jaime; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Checkley, William; CRONICAS Cohort Study Group (Springer, 2018)

PURPOSE: Body composition is known to influence the development and progression of chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs). We sought to characterize the unique anthropometric phenotypes that present with asthma, chronic ...
Prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and variation in risk factors across four geographically diverse resource-limited settings in Peru

Jaganath, Devan; Miranda, J. Jaime; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Wise, Robert A.; Diette, Gregory B.; Miele, Catherine H.; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Checkley, William (BioMed Central, 2015)

BACKGROUND: It is unclear how geographic and social diversity affects the prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We sought to characterize the prevalence of COPD and identify risk factors across four ...
Prevalence, clinical profile, iron status, and subject-specific traits for excessive erythrocytosis in andean adults living permanently at 3,825 meters above sea level

De Ferrari, Aldo; Miranda, J. Jaime; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Davila-Roman, Victor G.; León-Velarde, Fabiola; Rivera Chira, Maria Concepcion; Huicho Oriundo, Luis; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Wise, Robert A.; Checkley, William (Elsevier, 2014)

BACKGROUND: Excessive erythrocytosis (EE) is a prevalent condition in populations living at high altitudes (> 2,500 m above sea level). Few large population-based studies have explored the association between EE and ...
Previous tuberculosis disease as a risk factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a cross-sectional analysis of multicountry, population-based studies.

Kamenar, Katarina; Hossen, Shakir; Gupte, Akshay N.; Siddharthan, Trishul; Pollard, Suzanne; Chowdhury, Muhammad; Rubinstein, Adolfo L.; Irazola, Vilma E.; Gutierrez, Laura; Miranda, J. Jaime; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Alam, Dewan; Kirenga, Bruce; Jones, Rupert C.; van Gemert, Frederik; Wise, Robert A.; Checkley, William (BMJ Publishing Group, 2021)

BACKGROUND: Risk factors for COPD in high-income settings are well understood; however, less attention has been paid to contributors of COPD in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) such as pulmonary tuberculosis. ...
Relationship between daily exposure to biomass fuel smoke and blood pressure in high-altitude Peru

Burroughs Pena, Melissa; Romero Rivero, Karina Maribel; Velazquez, Eric J.; Davila-Roman, Victor G.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Wise, Robert A.; Miranda, J. Jaime; Checkley, William (Wolters Kluwer Health, 2015)

Household air pollution from biomass fuel use affects 3 billion people worldwide; however, few studies have examined the relationship between biomass fuel use and blood pressure. We sought to determine if daily biomass ...
Urbanisation but not biomass fuel smoke exposure is associated with asthma prevalence in four resource-limited settings

Gaviola, Chelsea; Miele, Catherine H.; Wise, Robert A.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Jaganath, Devan; Miranda, J. Jaime; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Hansel, Nadia N.; Checkley, William (BMJ Publishing Group, 2015)

BACKGROUND: Urbanisation is an important contributor to the prevalence of asthma worldwide, and the burden of this effect in low-income and middle-income countries undergoing rapid industrialisation appears to be growing. ...
