1. Longitudinal data analysis using generalized linear modelsBiometrika · 1986 · 18,348 citations

   This paper proposes an extension of generalized linear models to the analysis of longitudinal data. We introduce a class of estimating equations that give consistent estimates of the regression parameters and of their variance under mild assumptions about the time…

2. Fine Particulate Air Pollution and Hospital Admission for Cardiovascular and Respiratory DiseasesJAMA · 2006 · 2,701 citations

   CONTEXT: Evidence on the health risks associated with short-term exposure to fine particles (particulate matter < or =2.5 microm in aerodynamic diameter [PM2.5]) is limited. Results from the new national monitoring network for PM2.5 make possible systematic research on health…

3. Fine Particulate Air Pollution and Mortality in 20 U.S. Cities, 1987–1994New England Journal of Medicine · 2000 · 2,265 citations

   BACKGROUND: Air pollution in cities has been linked to increased rates of mortality and morbidity in developed and developing countries. Although these findings have helped lead to a tightening of air-quality standards, their validity with respect to public health has…
