Particulate matter (PM) is a recognized carcinogen, but the effects of PM on liver cancer remain underexplored. This study investigates the long-term association between PM and liver cancer mortality, as well as the contribution of smaller particles ...
BACKGROUND: Evidence about the health effects of ultrafine particles (UFPs) remains limited, especially due to challenges in estimating exposure in epidemiological studies.
Global electronification has driven an unprecedented surge in electronic and electrical waste (e-waste), with approximately 75 % of this e-waste informally managed, releasing hazardous chemicals. Traditional association analyses have limited ability ...
OBJECTIVES: This study investigated association between long-term PM exposure and lung cancer incidence, focusing on Jiangsu Province, China. We aimed to explore the effects of historical PM with time lags and build a prediction model using machine l...
Improving risk evaluation for environmental and human health is of paramount concern for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This includes the identification and assessment of chemical transport from commercial and industrial sources to e...
There is currently a paucity of research on the effects of early life exposure to particulate matter (PM) of various size fractions on pneumonia in preschool-aged children. We explored the connections between antenatal and postnatal exposure to atmos...
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a major global public health concern due to its rising prevalence and association with increased risks of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Emerging evidence suggests that environmental chemical exposures may pl...
As public awareness of environmental and health issues grows, providing accurate and accessible environmental risk information is essential for informed decision-making. Environmental indices simplify the complex impacts of various environmental fact...
BACKGROUND: Exposure to heavy metals has been implicated in adverse auditory health outcomes, yet the precise relationships between heavy metal biomarkers and hearing status remain underexplored. This study leverages a machine learning framework to i...
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of irreversible deterioration of vision in older adults. Previous studies have found that exposure to pesticides can lead to a worsening of AMD. In this paper, information on pesticide e...
