Air Pollution and the microvasculature: a cross-sectional assessment of in vivo retinal images in the population-based multi-ethnic study of atherosclerosis (MESA).
Sara D. Adar,Sara D. Adar,Ronald Klein,Barbara E.K. Klein,Adam A. Szpiro,Mary Frances Cotch,Tien Yin Wong,Tien Yin Wong,Marie S. O'Neill,Sandi Shrager,R. Graham Barr,David S. Siscovick,Martha L. Daviglus,Paul D. Sampson,Joel D. Kaufman +14 more
TL;DR: It is shown that residing in locations with higher air pollution concentrations and experiencing daily increases in air pollution are associated with narrower retinal arteriolar diameters in older individuals, thus providing a link between air pollution and cardiovascular disease.

Andrew E. Moran,Andrew E. Moran,Ana V. Diez Roux,Sharon A. Jackson,Holly Kramer,Teri A. Manolio,Sandi Shrager,Steven Shea +7 more
TL;DR: Acculturation and place of birth are associated with hypertension in a multiethnic sample of 2619 white, 1898 African American, 1,494 Hispanic, and 803 Chinese participants in the Multiethnic Study of Atherosclerosis.

Steven Shea,James H. Stein,Neal W. Jorgensen,Robyn L. McClelland,Liana Tascau,Sandi Shrager,Jay W. Heinecke,Laurent Yvan-Charvet,Laurent Yvan-Charvet,Alan R. Tall +9 more
TL;DR: A role for HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux in an atheroprotective mechanism for coronary heart disease but not stroke is supported, and higher CMEC level was associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease while no association was found with stroke events.

Cecilia Castro-Diehl,Ana V. Diez Roux,Susan Redline,Teresa E. Seeman,Sandi Shrager,Steven Shea +5 more
TL;DR: Shorter sleep duration, lower sleep efficiency, and insomnia are associated with alterations in diurnal cortisol levels consistent with changes in hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal regulation.
