The relationship between heavy metals and metabolic syndrome using machine learning.

Frontiers in public health
BACKGROUND: Exposure to high levels of heavy metals has been widely recognized as an important risk factor for metabolic syndrome (MetS). The main purpose of this study is to assess the associations between the level of heavy metal exposure and Mets ...

Optimized Bags of Artificial Neural Networks Can Predict the Viability of Organisms Exposed to Nanoparticles.

The journal of physical chemistry. A
Prediction of organismal viability upon exposure to a nanoparticle in varying environments─as fully specified at the molecular scale─has emerged as a useful figure of merit in the design of engineered nanoparticles. We build on our earlier finding th...

Effects of Various Heavy Metal Exposures on Insulin Resistance in Non-diabetic Populations: Interpretability Analysis from Machine Learning Modeling Perspective.

Biological trace element research
Increasing and compelling evidence has been proved that heavy metal exposure is involved in the development of insulin resistance (IR). We trained an interpretable predictive machine learning (ML) model for IR in the non-diabetic populations based on...

The buccal micronucleus cytome assay: New horizons for its implementation in human studies.

Mutation research. Genetic toxicology and environmental mutagenesis
In this report we provide a summary of the presentations and discussion of the latest knowledge regarding the buccal micronucleus (MN) cytome assay. This information was presented at the HUMN workshop held in Malaga, Spain, in connection with the 202...

Application of artificial intelligence in quantifying lung deposition dose of black carbon in people with exposure to ambient combustion particles.

Journal of exposure science & environmental epidemiology
BACKGROUND: Understanding lung deposition dose of black carbon is critical to fully reconcile epidemiological evidence of combustion particles induced health effects and inform the development of air quality metrics concerning black carbon. Macrophag...

Deep Learning-Based Road Traffic Noise Annoyance Assessment.

International journal of environmental research and public health
With the development of urban road traffic, road noise pollution is becoming a public concern. Controlling and reducing the harm caused by traffic noise pollution have been the hot spots of traffic noise management research. The subjective annoyance ...

Associations between trees and grass presence with childhood asthma prevalence using deep learning image segmentation and a novel green view index.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Limitations of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) potentially contributed to the inconsistent findings of greenspace exposure and childhood asthma. The aim of this study was to use a novel greenness exposure assessment method, capable of o...

Developing a short-term prediction model for asthma exacerbations from Swedish primary care patients' data using machine learning - Based on the ARCTIC study.

Respiratory medicine
OBJECTIVE: The ability to predict impending asthma exacerbations may allow better utilization of healthcare resources, prevention of hospitalization and improve patient outcomes. We aimed to develop models using machine learning to predict risk of ex...

Asthma-prone areas modeling using a machine learning model.

Scientific reports
Nowadays, owing to population growth, increasing environmental pollution, and lifestyle changes, the number of asthmatics has significantly increased. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to determine the asthma-prone areas in Tehran, Iran conside...

Performance improvement of machine learning techniques predicting the association of exacerbation of peak expiratory flow ratio with short term exposure level to indoor air quality using adult asthmatics clustered data.

PloS one
Large-scale data sources, remote sensing technologies, and superior computing power have tremendously benefitted to environmental health study. Recently, various machine-learning algorithms were introduced to provide mechanistic insights about the he...
