Exposure to three primary xenoestrogens (XEs), including phthalates, parabens, and phenols, has been strongly associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). An interpretable machine learning (ML) model was developed to predict CKD using data from the ...
The increasing prevalence of environmental pollutants has raised public concern about their potential role in diseases such as atherosclerosis (AS). Existing studies suggest that chemicals, including bisphenol S (BPS), may adversely affect cardiovasc...

Contaminants capable of crossing the placental barrier (PB) adversely affect female reproduction and fetal development. The rapid identification of PB-permeable contaminants is urgently needed due to the inefficiencies of conventional cell-based tran...
Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)

Over the past decades, exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a group of synthetic chemicals notorious for their environmental persistence, has been shown to pose increased health risks. Despite that some PFAS were reported to have e...
Respiratory toxicity of chemicals is a common clinical and environmental health concern. Currently, most in silico prediction models for chemical respiratory toxicity are often based on a single or vague toxicity endpoint, and machine learning models...
Early pregnancy loss (EPL) may result from exposure to emerging contaminants (ECs), although the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This case-control study measured over 2000 serum features, including 37 ECs, 6 biochemicals, and 2057 end...
Environmental science. Processes & impacts

The nano-self-assembly of natural organic matter (NOM) profoundly influences the occurrence and fate of NOM and pollutants in large-scale complex environments. Machine learning (ML) offers a promising and robust tool for interpreting and predicting t...
We investigated the impacts of personal care products (PCPs) on dermal exposure to semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), including phthalates, organophosphate esters, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), ultraviolet filters, and p-phenylenedia...
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 ...
