Relation between prenatal lipid-soluble micronutrient status, environmental pollutant exposure, and birth outcomes
Elizabeth T. Masters,Wieslaw Jedrychowski,Rosemary L. Schleicher,Wei-Yann Tsai,Wei-Yann Tsai,Yi Hsuan Tu,David Camann,Deliang Tang,Frederica P. Perera +8 more
TL;DR: Maternal alpha-tocopherol and cord retinol concentrations were significantly and positively associated with BW and HC, and these micronutrients may have direct effects or may be markers for other underlying determinants of these pregnancy outcomes.

Molecular epidemiology in environmental carcinogenesis.
Frederica P. Perera,La Verne A. Mooney,Chris Dickey,Regina M. Santella,Doug Bell,William S. Blaner,Deliang Tang,Robin M. Whyatt +7 more
TL;DR: This article reviewed molecular evidence that two types of susceptibility factors, common predisposing genetic traits and young age at exposure, convey heightened risk from certain environmental carcinogens such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and aromatic amines.

Co-Benefits to Children's Health of the U.S. Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative.
TL;DR: This innovative analysis indicates that RGGI has provided substantial child health benefits beyond those initially considered, and those health benefits had significant estimated economic value.

Platinum-DNA adducts assayed in leukocytes of patients with germ cell tumors measured by atomic absorbance spectrometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
Robert J. Motzer,Eddie Reed,Frederica P. Perera,Deliang Tang,Hanadi Shamkhani,Miriam C. Poirier,Wei-Yann Tsai,Ricardo J. Parker,George J. Bosl +8 more
TL;DR: This data indicates that high platinum‐DNA adduct levels in peripheral blood cells have previously been correlated with favorable clinical response to platinum‐based therapy in patients with germ cell tumors and ovarian cancer.

Maternal prenatal urinary phthalate metabolite concentrations and visual recognition memory among infants at 27 weeks.
Khristina N. Ipapo,Pam Factor-Litvak,Robin M. Whyatt,Antonia M. Calafat,Diurka Diaz,Frederica P. Perera,Virginia Rauh,Julie B. Herbstman +7 more
TL;DR: Maternal prenatal exposure to some phthalates was negatively associated with visual recognition memory as measured by the FTII among girls at age 27 weeks, and there was evidence of effect modification by infant sex.
