Caution, Drivers! Children Present: Traffic, Pollution, and Infant Health by Knittel, Christopher R, Miller, Douglas L., Sanders, Nicholas J.

“…Using an instrumental variables approach that exploits the relationship between traffic, ambient weather conditions, and various pollutants, our findings suggest that ambient pollution levels, specifically particulate matter, still have large impacts on weekly infant mortality rates. Our results also illustrate the importance of weather controls in measuring pollution’s impact on infant mortality.…”

Assessment of cardio-respiratory interactions in preterm infants by bivariate autoregressive modeling and surrogate data analysis by Indic, Premananda, Bloch-Salisbury, Elisabeth, Bednarek, Frank, Brown, Emery N., Paydarfar, David, Barbieri, Riccardo

“…Background: Cardio-respiratory interactions are weak at the earliest stages of human development, suggesting that assessment of their presence and integrity may be an important indicator of development in infants. Despite the valuable research devoted to infant development, there is still a need for specifically targeted standards and methods to assess cardiopulmonary functions in the early stages of life. …”
