Journal Article
Nunez-de la Mora, A., Napolitano, D., Uddin, F., Choudhury, O., & Bentley, G. (2007). Betel nut use among first and second generation Bangladeshi women in London, UK. Journal of Immigrant and Minority Health, 9(4), 299-306. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10903-007-9041-2

This study evaluated the effects of socio-economic variables and migration history on the prevalence of betel nut and smokeless tobacco use in both UK- and Bangladeshi born migrant women resident in London. No significant difference in betel nut use... Read More about Betel nut use among first and second generation Bangladeshi women in London, UK..

The impact of developmental conditions on adult salivary estradiol levels: Why this differs from progesterone? (2007)
Journal Article
Nunez de la Mora, A., Bentley, G., Choudhury, O., Napolitano, D., & Chatterton, R. (2008). The impact of developmental conditions on adult salivary estradiol levels: Why this differs from progesterone?. American Journal of Human Biology, 20(1), 2-14. https://doi.org/10.1002/ajhb.20698

Women living in energetically stressful conditions have significantly lower baseline salivary steroid levels compared to those in affluent environments. Developmental hypotheses suggest that interpopulation variation in ovarian function results from...

Potential Use of Biomarkers for Analyzing Inter-Population and Cross-Cultural Variability in Reproductive Aging. (2007)
Journal Article
Bentley, G., & Muttukrishna, S. (2007). and Cross-Cultural Variability in Reproductive Aging. Menopause, 14(4), 669-679. https://doi.org/10.1097/gme.0b013e318093df43

Objective: The aims of this study were (1) to document the extent of variability in physiological aspects of reproductive aging; (2) to outline those areas where more work is needed to expand our knowledge of this variability; (3) to outline availa...

Childhood conditions influence adult progesterone levels (2007)
Journal Article
Nunez-de-la-Mora, A., Chatterton, R., Choudhury, O., Napolitano, D., & Bentley, G. (2007). Childhood conditions influence adult progesterone levels. PLoS Medicine, 4(5), 813-821. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.0040167

Background Average profiles of salivary progesterone in women vary significantly at the inter- and intrapopulation level as a function of age and acute energetic conditions related to energy intake, energy expenditure, or a combination of both. In ad... Read More about Childhood conditions influence adult progesterone levels.
