Decomposition Analysis of Black –White Disparities in Birth Outcomes: The Relative Contribution of Air Pollution and Social Factors in California
Conclusions: Our results suggest that, although the role of individual and neighborhood factors remains prevailing in explaining black–white differences in birth outcomes, the individual contribution of PM2.5 is comparable in magnitude to any single individual- or neighborhood-level factor. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP490 Received: 10 May 2016 Revised: 16 December 2016 Accepted: 03 January 2017 Published: 04 October 2017 Address correspondence to T.

Prenatal and Postnatal PCB-153 and p,p ′-DDE Exposures and Behavior Scores at 5–9 Years of Age among Children in Greenland and Ukraine
Conclusion: Prenatal and early postnatal exposures to p,p′-DDE and PCB-153 were associated with a higher prevalence of abnormal scores for conduct and hyperactivity at 5–9 y of age in our study population. These findings provide further support for the importance of minimizing organochlorine exposures to young children and to women of childbearing age. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP553 Received: 24 May 2016 Revised: 29 August 2017 Accepted: 29 August 2017 Published: 03 October 2017 Address correspondence to A.H.

Plasma Concentrations of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances at Baseline and Associations with Glycemic Indicators and Diabetes Incidence among High-Risk Adults in the Diabetes Prevention Program Trial
Conclusions: At baseline, several PFAS were cross-sectionally associated with small differences in markers of insulin secretion and β-cell function. However, there was limited evidence suggesting that PFAS concentrations are associated with diabetes incidence or changes in glycemic indicators during the follow-up period. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1612 Received: 12 January 2017 Revised: 03 August 2017 Accepted: 04 August 2017 Published: 02 October 2017 Address correspondence to E.

Effects of Orally Ingested Arsenic on Respiratory Epithelial Permeability to Bacteria and Small Molecules in Mice
Conclusions: Peroral arsenic has little effect on local airway immune responses to bacteria but compromises respiratory epithelial barrier integrity, increasing systemic translocation of inhaled pathogens and small molecules. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1878 Received: 09 March 2017 Revised: 14 August 2017 Accepted: 16 August 2017 Published: 28 September 2017 Address correspondence to M.B.

Long-Term Air Pollution Exposure and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in Netherlands: A Population-based Case –control Study
Conclusions: Based on a large population-based case–control study, we report evidence for the association between long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution and increased susceptibility to ALS. Our findings further support the necessity for regulatory public health interventions to combat air pollution levels and provide additional insight into the potential pathophysiology of ALS. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1115 Received: 19 September 2016 Revised: 31 July 2017 Accepted: 03 August 2017 Published: 27 September 2017 Address correspondence to R.C.H.

Sex- and Dose-Specific Effects of Maternal Bisphenol A Exposure on Pancreatic Islets of First- and Second-Generation Adult Mice Offspring
Conclusion: These findings demonstrate that maternal BPA exposure has dose- and sex-specific effects on pancreatic islets of adult F1 and F2 mice offspring. The transmission of these changes across multiple generations may involve either mitochondrial dysfunction and/or epigenetic modifications. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1674 Received: 25 January 2017 Revised: 26 July 2017 Accepted: 26 July 2017 Published: 27 September 2017 Please address correspondence to R.A.
