With the expansion of human industrial activities, heavy metal contamination in groundwater environments has become increasingly severe. Environmental management agencies invest significant financial resources into groundwater monitoring, primarily d...
Heavy metal concentration in pregnant women affects neurocognitive and behavioral development of their infants and children. The majority of existing research focusing on pregnant women's heavy metal concentration has considered individual environmen...
BACKGROUND: Chronic bronchitis (CB), as a core precursor of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), is crucial for global disease burden prevention and control. Although the association between heavy metal exposure and respiratory damage has be...
The accumulation of heavy metal(loid)s (HMs) in the soils of urban parks in industrial cities has raised global concerns because of their environmental and health impacts. However, traditional deterministic assessments commonly overlook uncertainties...
