Preterm birth (PTB) is a primary cause of mortality among newborns globally. Prenatal exposure to environmental pollutants has been suggested to increase the PTB risk. Studies have shown NEOs may be linked to adverse birth outcomes. However, the impa...
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...
Oocyte quality is essential for successful pregnancy, yet no discriminant criterion exists to assess the effects of environmental pollutants on oocyte abnormalities. We developed a stepwise framework integrating deep learning-extracted latent feature...
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...
Research investigating the prenatal chemical exposome and child neurodevelopment has typically focused on a limited number of chemical exposures and controlled for sociodemographic factors and maternal mental health. Emerging machine learning approac...
