요약 | Many factors within a water system can influence drinking water quality. One example is the presence of cyanobacteria, which can naturally occur in surface water sources of drinking water and produce toxins associated with harmful algal blooms. |
요약 | In Aim 1, Poisson regression models were used to estimate the associations between daily measures of cyanobacteria concentration in the water source and emergency department (ED) visits for acute gastrointestinal illness (AGI), respiratory illne |
요약 | In Aim 2, case-crossover methods were used to examine the associations between water pipe breaks and ED visits for AGI. The first part (Aim 2a) examined 385 water main breaks in the City of Boston over a 10-year period (10/1/2002 -- 9/30/2012). |
요약 | This dissertation identified potential health risks related to cyanobacteria in the water source and water pipe breaks in the distribution system. These associations are important to consider given the consequences of a changing climate and agi |
