Environ Health Perspect 107:475-80. 1999..Seasonal factors, one of the other possible explanations, is less probable. More investigation is required to examine these findings and alternative explanations...- Fecundability and parental exposure to ambient sulfur dioxideJ Dejmek
Laboratory of Genetic Ecotoxicology, Regional Institute of Hygiene of Central Bohemia and Institute of Experimental Medicine, Academy of Sciences of Czech Republic, Prague
Environ Health Perspect 108:647-54. 2000..Alternative explanations of our results are also possible... - The impact of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and fine particles on pregnancy outcomeJ Dejmek
Laboratory of Genetic Ecotoxicology, Regional Institute of Hygiene of Central Bohemia and Institute of Experimental Medicine, Academy of Science of the Czech Republic, Prague, Czech Republic
Environ Health Perspect 108:1159-64. 2000..The results prove that exposure to c-PAHs in early gestation may influence fetal growth. The particulate matter-IUGR association observed earlier may be at least partly explained by the presence of c-PAHs on particle surfaces... 
Vitamin C, E and A levels in maternal and fetal blood for Czech and Gypsy ethnic groups in the Czech RepublicJan Dejmek
Laboratory of Genetic Ecotoxicology, Regional Inst of Hygiene of Central Bohemia, Institute of Experimental Medicine, Academy of Sciences CR, Prague, Czech Republic
Int J Vitam Nutr Res 72:183-90. 2002..Significantly decreased vitamin C levels were observed in Gypsy mothers and their babies; this may be attributed to unfavorable diet and smoking habits: about 78% of Gypsy mothers admitted smoking as compared with 31% of Czech mothers...- DNA adducts in human placenta as related to air pollution and to GSTM1 genotypeJ Topinka
Laboratory of Genetic Ecotoxicology, Regional Institute of Hygiene of Central Bohemia, Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague, Czech Republic
Mutat Res 390:59-68. 1997.... - Single cell gel electrophoresis assay: sensitivity of peripheral white blood cells in human population studiesR J Sram
Institute of Experimental Medicine of the Academy of Science of the Czech Republic, Prague, Czech Republic
Mutagenesis 13:99-103. 1998..According to our results it seems that the Comet assay was not a particularly sensitive technique to determine the effects of environmental pollution at the DNA level if peripheral WBC are used... - Adverse reproductive outcomes from exposure to environmental mutagensR J Sram
Laboratory of Genetic Ecotoxicology, Regional Institute of Hygiene of Central Bohemia, c o Institute of Experimental Medicine, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Videnska 1083, 142 20, Prague, Czech Republic
Mutat Res 428:203-15. 1999..Pregnancy outcome and semen studies imply that relatively low air pollution (higher than 40 microg PM10/m(3)) can significantly increase the adverse reproductive outcomes affecting both genders... - Association of DNA adducts and genotypes with birth weightRadim J Sram
Laboratory of Genetic Ecotoxicology, Institute of Experimental Medicine, AS CR, Videnska 1083, 142 20 Prague, Czech Republic
Mutat Res 608:121-8. 2006..This means that in the future, the impact of air pollution on children's health should be studied together with their genetic polymorphisms... - Childhood morbidity and air pollution in the Teplice programM Dostal
Institute of Exp Medicine, Academy of Sciences, Prague, Czech Republic
Cas Lek Cesk 140:658-61. 2001..Comparisons were made between children living in Teplice district, known for its high air pollution, and children living in Practice, a district with consistently lower particulate and SO2 exposures... - Unfavourable birth outcomes of the Roma women in the Czech Republic and the potential explanations: a population-based studyMartin Bobak

Epidemiology 13:172-83. 2002..Heavy air pollution may affect the immune system in pregnant women and/or fetuses, reflecting an acute and/or chronic effect, although unmeasured confounders could also play a role... - The impact of plasma folate levels of mothers and newborns on intrauterine growth retardation and birth weightRadim J Sram
Institute of Experimental Medicine Academy of Sciences of Czech Republic, Health Institute of Central Bohemia, Videnska 1083, 14220 Prague 4, Czech Republic
Mutat Res 591:302-10. 2005..It would be warranted to study the effect of folate levels on pregnancy outcomes in the relationship to different environmental pollution and life styles of mothers... - Coal home heating and environmental tobacco smoke in relation to lower respiratory illness in Czech children, from birth to 3 years of ageRebecca J Baker
Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA
Environ Health Perspect 114:1126-32. 2006..Relevance: Few studies have described effects of coal heating fuel on children's health in a Western country. Breast-feeding may attenuate adverse effects of prenatal and childhood exposures to combustion products...
