Breast milk is essential for infant health, but the transfer of xenobiotic chemicals poses significant risks. Ethical challenges in clinical trials necessitate the use of in vitro predictive models to assess chemical exposure risks in breastfeeding i...
p-phenylenediamine antioxidants (PPDs) are extensively used in rubber manufacturing for their potent antioxidative properties, but PPDs and 2-anilino-5-[(4-methylpentan-2yl)amino]cyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (6PPDQ) pose potential environmental and ...
BACKGROUND: Environmental metal exposure has been implicated in the development of digestive tract cancers, although the specific associations remain poorly defined. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between blood metal levels and the ...

Machine learning exhibits excellent performance in terms of predictive power. We aimed to construct an interpretable machine learning model utilizing National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data to investigate the relationship between heavy ...
The lack of high-resolution, long-term PM observations in Greece and the Eastern Mediterranean hampers the development of spatial models that are crucial for providing representative exposure estimates to health studies. This work presents a spatial ...
Pesticides typically co-occur in agricultural surface waters and pose a potential threat to human and ecosystem health. As pesticide screening in global agricultural surface waters is an immense analytical challenge, a detailed risk picture of pestic...
IN BRIEF: Clinical drug trials often do not include pregnant people due to health risks; therefore, many medications have an unknown effect on the developing fetus. Machine learning QSAR models have been used successfully to predict the fetal risk of...
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in older people in developed countries. It has been suggested that heavy metal exposure may be associated with the development of AMD, but most studies have focused on the effec...
