Pollutant exposure and myocardial injury: Protocol and progress report for a toxicological systematic mapping review.
while CVD incidence rises steadily with the aging population. Although numerous experimental studies are now available, the mechanisms through which lifetime exposure to environmental pollutants can ...
Development, Validation and Application of a Targeted LC-MS Method for Quantification of Microcystins and Nodularin: Towards a Better Characterization of Drinking Water
pollutants are some of the causes of the problem. Moreover, due to the increasing human population, water demand is also increasing, while water reserves in aquifers, groundwater and fossil water are ...
Variability in the association between long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and mortality by exposure assessment method and covariate adjustment: A census-based country-wide cohort study
Environmental hazard exposure assessment health effects population-based Survival Analysis Abstract: Background Ambient air pollution exposure has been associated with higher mortality risk in numerous studies. ...
Association between temperature and natural mortality in Belgium: Effect modification by individual characteristics and residential environment
and assessed effect modification by individual characteristics, preexisting chronic health conditions and residential environment (population density, built-up area and air pollutants: PM2.5, NO2, O3 ...
Urban environment and mental health: the NAMED project, protocol for a mixed-method study
Tim; An Van Nieuwenhuyse; Roy Remmen; Nelly Saenen; Isabelle Thomas; Keune, Hans Source: BMJ Open, Volume 10, Issue 2 (2020) Abstract: Introduction Mental health issues appear as a growing problem in ...
Association between urban environment and mental health in Brussels, Belgium
surrounding, noise, building morphology and mental health could be demonstrated. Conclusions: These findings have important implications because most of the Brussel’s population resides in areas where ...
Association between local airborne tree pollen composition and surrounding land cover across different spatial scales in Northern Belgium
pollen are important aeroallergens affecting human health. Local airborne pollen compositions can pose health-risks for the sensitized population, but at present little is known about fine-scale pollen ...
Residing in urban areas with higher green space is associated with lower mortality risk: A census-based cohort study with ten years of follow-up
population-based Abstract: Background Epidemiological studies suggest that residing close to green space reduce mortality rates. We investigated the relationship between long-term exposure to residential green space ...
Ecotoxicity profile of heavily contaminated surface water of two rivers in Tunisia
effects observed in the river waters, in particular due to the industrial activity, a fact that could deteriorate the ecosystem and therefore threaten the human health of the population living in the study ...
Environmental exposures and health behavior in association with mental health: a study design.
exposure and biological aging to explain the associations between environmental exposures, health behavior and mental health. Methods: The study population of this cross-sectional study ( = 1168) is ...
