By contrast, no statistically significant associations were detectable between the other additional highly prevalent social and occupational hazards and SBP; we did, however, find suggestive evidence of an association between SBP and response to unfair treatment, implying that in a context of high exposure, differential susceptibility to the exposure matters.
Deficits in development of central cholinergic pathways caused by fetal nicotine exposure: differential effects on choline acetyltransferase activity and [3H]hemicholinium-3 binding.
Distance from source can be used as a proxy for exposure, although it can be difficult to define what distances reflect a meaningful exposure differential.
Immediately after exposure, differential cell counts and total protein (a marker of lung permeability) were assessed from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF).
In a conceptual framework developed specifically for analyzing those pathways, Diderichsen and colleagues [ 68](p. 14) identify "four main mechanisms – social stratification, differential exposure, differential susceptibility, and differential consequences – that play a role in generating health inequities".
Other mechanisms by which gender inequalities in health can occur have been outlined by Diderichsen.[ 73] His framework delineates four main mechanisms – social stratification, differential exposure, differential susceptibility and differential consequences.
During cold exposure, differential expression of Ucp1 and the number of BAs present in the RP was genetically controlled, whereas the genetic differences were not evident in ING (6, 26).
The biomarkers may also provide valid internal dosimeters to differentiate between groups having smaller exposure differentials, but our data do not permit us to assess this possibility.
Given potential exposure differentials and sensitivity to arsenic exposure, some uncertainty exists in the magnitude of the cancer burden.
Explanations for such inequalities include poverty, variations in environmental and occupational exposures, and differential access to medical care [ 13, 14, 17- 20].
