    • Association of Blood Lead Levels with Onset of Puberty in Russian Boys 

      Hauser, Russ B.; Sergeyev, Oleg; Korrick, Susan Abigail; Lee, Mary M.; Revich, Boris; Gitin, Elena; Burns, Jane S; Williams, Paige L. (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2008)
      Background: Epidemiologic studies suggest a temporal trend of earlier onset and longer duration of puberty, raising concerns regarding the potential impact of environmental factors on pubertal development. Lead exposure ...

    • Associations of Peripubertal Serum Dioxin and Polychlorinated Biphenyl Concentrations with Pubertal Timing among Russian Boys 

      Burns, Jane S.; Lee, Mary M.; Williams, Paige L.; Korrick, Susan A.; Sergeyev, Oleg; Lam, Thuy; Revich, Boris; Hauser, Russ (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2016)
      Background: Dioxins, furans, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dioxin-like and non-dioxin-like, have been linked to alterations in puberty. Objectives: We examined the association of peripubertal serum levels of these ...

    • Genetic Modification of the Association between Peripubertal Dioxin Exposure and Pubertal Onset in a Cohort of Russian Boys 

      Humblet, Olivier; Korrick, Susan Abigail; Williams, Paige L.; Sergeyev, Oleg; Emond, Claude; Birnbaum, Linda S.; Burns, Jane S; Altshul, Larisa M.; Patterson, Donald G.; Turner, Wayman E.; Lee, Mary M.; Revich, Boris; Hauser, Russ B. (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2013)
      Background: Exposure to dioxins has been associated with delayed pubertal onset in both epidemiologic and animal studies. Whether genetic polymorphisms may modify this association is currently unknown. Identifying such ...

    • Predictors of Serum Dioxins and PCBs among Peripubertal Russian Boys 

      Sergeyev, Oleg; Lee, Mary M.; Revich, Boris; Patterson, Donald G.; Turner, Wayman E.; Needham, Larry L.; Saharov, Igor; Burns, Jane S; Williams, Paige L.; Korrick, Susan Abigail; Altshul, Lairsa; Hauser, Russ B. (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2009)
      Background: Although sources and routes of exposure to dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been studied, information regarding exposure among children is limited. Breast-feeding and diet are two important ...

    • Prepubertal Serum Concentrations of Organochlorine Pesticides and Age at Sexual Maturity in Russian Boys 

      Lam, Thuy; Williams, Paige L.; Lee, Mary M.; Korrick, Susan A.; Birnbaum, Linda S.; Burns, Jane S.; Sergeyev, Oleg; Revich, Boris; Altshul, Larisa M.; Patterson, Donald G.; Hauser, Russ (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2015)
      Background: Few human studies have evaluated the impact of childhood exposure to organochlorine pesticides (OCP) on pubertal development. Objective: We evaluated associations of serum OCP concentrations [hexachlorobenzene ...

    • Serum Concentrations of Organochlorine Pesticides and Growth among Russian Boys 

      Sergeyev, Oleg; Lee, Mary M.; Revich, Boris; Del Prato, Julie T.; Humblet, Olivier; Patterson, Donald G.; Turner, Wayman E.; Starovoytov, Mikhail; Burns, Jane S; Williams, Paige L.; Korrick, Susan Abigail; Altshul, Larisa M.; Hauser, Russ B. (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2011)
      Background: Limited human data suggest an association of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) with adverse effects on children’s growth.: Objective: We evaluated the associations of OCPs with longitudinally assessed growth ...
