(author)Environmental noise may play a role in the manifestation and severity of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms, but evidence is limited. We investigated the cross-sectional associations between residential and school road traffic noise exposure and ADHD symptoms and diagnosis.

O'Leary, C. (author), de Kluizenaar, Y. (author), Jacobs, P. (author), Borsboom, W. (author), Hall, I. (author), Jones, B. (author)There is growing awareness that indoor exposure to particulate matter with diameterA ≤A 2.5A μm (PM 2.5 ) is associated with an increased risk of adverse health effects. Cooking is a key indoor source of PM 2.5 and an activity conducted daily in most homes. Population scale models can predict occupant exposures to PM 2.5 , but these...article 2019
