Slovakia

Hye-Youn Park, Irva Hertz-Picciotto, Jan Petrik, Lubica Palkovicova,

Anton Kocan, and Tomas Trnovec

Conclusions: This study provides the first evidence to date that PCB

exposure in neonates is associated with a smaller thymic volume,

suggesting possible impaired immunologic development.

Conclusions: This study supports particulate matter air pollution being

a risk factor for respiratory-related postneonatal mortality and

suggests that ozone may be associated with SIDS in the United States.
