Jaime; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Smeeth, L.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Checkley, W.; Casas, J.P.; Smith, G.D.; Ebrahim, S.; Gamboa, Raúl; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Huicho Oriundo, Luis; Málaga Rodríguez, Germán Javier; Montori, V.M.; Diette, G.B.; León-Velarde, Fabiola; Rivera, Maria; Wise, R.A.; Sacksteder, K. (BMJ Publishing Group, 2012)
    Background: The rise in non-communicable diseases in developing countries has gained increased attention. Given that around 80% of deaths related to noncommunicable diseases occur in low- and middleincome countries, there ...
  • Clinical, radiological and functional characteristics of pulmonary diseases among htlv-1 infected patients without prior active tuberculosis infection 
    Cachay Figueroa, Rodrigo Antonio; Gil-Zacarias, M.; Watanabe-Tejada, T.; Schwalb Calderon, Alvaro; Mejía Cordero, Fernando Alonso; Gayoso, O.; Gotuzzo Herencia, José Eduardo (MDPI, 2021)
    The lifelong infection with the human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) has been associated with a variety of clinical manifestations; one of the less-explored is HTLV-1-associated pulmonary disease. Imaging of lung ...
  • A cross-sectional study of differences in 6-min walk distance in healthy adults residing at high altitude versus sea level 
    Caffrey, Deirdre; Miranda, J. Jaime; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Davila-Roman, Victor G.; Cabrera, Lilia; Dowling, Russell; Stewart, Talia; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Wise, Robert; León-Velarde, Fabiola; Checkley, William; CRONICAS Cohort (BioMed Central, 2014)
    Background: We sought to determine if adult residents living at high altitude have developed sufficient adaptation to a hypoxic environment to match the functional capacity of a similar population at sea level. To test ...
  • Effect of urbanisation on asthma, allergy and airways inflammation in a developing country setting 
    Robinson, C.L.; Baumann, L.M.; Romero Rivero, Karina Maribel; Combe, J.M.; Gomez, A.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Cabrera, L.; Gonzalvez, G.; Hansel, N.N.; Wise, R.A.; Barnes, K.C.; Breysse, P.N.; Checkley, W. (BMJ Publishing Group, 2011)
    Background: Asthma is a growing public health problem in developing countries. However, few studies have studied the role of urbanisation in this phenomenon. It was hypothesised that children living in a peri-urban setting ...
  • 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. ...
  • Effects of distance from a heavily transited avenue on asthma and atopy in a periurban shantytown in Lima, Peru 
    Baumann, L.M.; Robinson, C.L.; Combe, J.M.; Gomez, A.; Romero Rivero, Karina Maribel; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Cabrera, L.; Hansel, N.N.; Wise, R.A.; Breysse, P.N.; Barnes, K.; Hernandez, J.E.; Checkley, W. (Elsevier, 2011)
    Background: Proximity to roadways increases the risk of asthma in developed countries; however, relatively little is known about this relationship in developing countries, where rapid and uncontrolled growth of cities has ...
  • 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 ...
  • Feasibility intervention trial of two types of improved cookstoves in three resource-limited settings: Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial 
    Klasen, Elizabeth; Miranda, J. Jaime; Khatry, Subarna; Menya, Diana; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Tielsch, JamesM.; Kennedy, Caitlin; Dreibelbis, Robert; Naithani, Neha; Kimaiyo, Sylvester; Chiang, Marilu; Carter, E.Jane; Sherman, Charles B.; Breysse, Patrick N.; Checkley, William; Huaman, A.; Levano, M.; Haustein, D.; Rhodes, E.; Grajeda, L.; Levy, S.; LeClerq, S.; Wise, R.; Mosol, P.; Ogaro, F.; Apaka, C.; Baliddawa, J. (BioMed Central, 2013)
    Background: Exposure to biomass fuel smoke is one of the leading risk factors for disease burden worldwide. International campaigns are currently promoting the widespread adoption of improved cookstoves in resource-limited ...
  • The genetic architecture of chronic mountain sickness in Peru 
    Gazal, Steven; Espinoza, Jose R.; Austerlitz, Frederic; Marchant, Dominique; Macarlupu, Jose Luis; Rodriguez, Jorge; Ju-Preciado, Hugo; Rivera Chira, Maria Concepcion; Hermine, Olivier; León-Velarde, Fabiola; Villafuerte, Francisco C.; Richalet, Jean-Paul; Gouya, Laurent (Frontiers Media, 2019)
    Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is a pathological condition resulting from chronic exposure to high-altitude hypoxia. While its prevalence is high in native Andeans (>10%), little is known about the genetic architecture ...
  • The Peru urban versus rural asthma (PURA) study: Methods and baseline quality control data from a cross-sectional investigation into the prevalence, severity, genetics, immunology and environmental factors affecting asthma in adolescence in Peru 
    Robinson, C.L.; Baumann, L.M.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Romero Rivero, Karina Maribel; Combe, J.M.; Cabrera, L.; Hansel, N.N.; Barnes, K.; Gonzalvez, G.; Wise, R.A.; Breysse, P.N.; Checkley, W. (BMJ Publishing Group, 2012)
    Objectives: According to a large-scale international survey, Peru has one of the highest prevalences of asthma worldwide; however, data from this survey were limited to participants from urban Lima.s sought to characterise ...
  • Role of exhaled nitric oxide as a predictor of atopy 
    Romero Rivero, Karina Maribel; Robinson, Colin L.; Baumann, Lauren M.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Hamilton, Robert G.; Hansel, Nadia N.; Checkley, William (BioMed Central, 2013)
    Background: The fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is a quantitative, noninvasive and safe measure of airways inflammation that may complement the assessment of asthma. Elevations of FeNO have recently been found to ...
  • What is a COPD-Like Spirometry Test Result in Resource Constrained Settings? 
    Gianella, Gonzalo E.; Miranda, J. Jaime; Hurst, John R. (Taylor and Francis, 2019)
    The diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a global health problem, is challenging in resource-constrained settings. Spirometry with an obstructive pattern after the administration of bronchodilators ...
