We have previously reported an apparent absence of afor

Risk of obesity in immigrants compared with Swedes in two deprived neighbourhoods

Few studies are actually based on objectively measured data using random sampling of residents in deprived neighbourhoods. In addition, most studies use a crude measure, the body mass index, to estimate obesity. This is of conc

Chiral signatures of chlordanes indicate changing sources to the atmosphere over the past 30 years

Chlordane was used as an insecticide for half a century until its withdrawal from the world market in 1997. Trans- and cis-chlordane (TC, CC) are racemic in the technical product, but undergo enantio selective degradation in soil to leave nonracemic residues. In most cases, the (+) enantiomer of TC and the (-) enantiomer of CC are depleted, leading to enantiomer fractions, EF = (+)/[(+) + (-)], th

Genetic probes of three theories of maternal adjustment: II. Genetic and environmental influences
