A COVID-19 vaccine can be an important key for mitigating the spread of pandemic, provided that it is accepted by a sufficient proportion population. This study investigated parents' intention to get vaccinated and have one's child against COVID-19. In May 2020, 612 parents participating with their in KUNO-Kids health completed online survey. Multivariable logistic regression models were calculated analyze predictors vaccinate. Fifty-eight percent intended COVID-19, 51% vaccinated....
One of the aims European Human Biomonitoring Initiative, HBM4EU, was to provide examples and good practices for effective use human biomonitoring (HBM) data in health risk assessment (RA). The need such information is pressing, as previous research has indicated that regulatory assessors generally lack knowledge experience HBM RA. By recognising this gap expertise, well added value incorporating into RA, paper support integration Based on work we different approaches including RA estimations...
Background: Elemental mercury (Hg0) is widely used in small-scale gold mining. Persons working or living mining areas have high urinary concentrations of Hg (U-Hg). Differences genes encoding potential Hg-transporters may affect uptake and elimination Hg.Objective: We aimed to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) Hg-transporter that modify U-Hg.Methods: Men women (1,017) from Indonesia, the Philippines, Tanzania, Zimbabwe were classified either as controls (no exposure mining)...
Artisanal small-scale gold mining (ASGM) is a poverty-driven activity practiced in over 70 countries worldwide. Zimbabwe amongst the top ten using large quantities of mercury to extract from ore. This analysis was performed check data availability and derive preliminary estimate disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) due use ASGM Zimbabwe.Cases chronic intoxication were identified following an algorithm mercury-related health effects human specimens. The sample prevalence miners controls...
The main exposure of these miners is therefore to elemental mercury.Mercury shows acute and chronic toxicity which may result in severe neurological damage affecting especially the cerebellum [1,2].The described practice ASGM very common; it estimated that up 10-15 million work areas [3][4][5].The mercury vapor causes health problems among people mining communities .Most publications focused on concentration human samples, only few studies included physical examinations revealed relevant...
Phthalates are a group of widely used chemicals and humans exposed to them in their daily life. Some phthalates may affect the hormonal balance both children adults. The aim this study was assess phthalate exposure its determinants among at age 7 years from Polish Mother Child Cohort Study (REPRO_PL). 250 urine samples collected 2014-2015 were analysed for 21 metabolites 11 parent using on-line high performance liquid chromatography coupled tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS).

Abstract Lead exposure can have serious consequences for health and development. The neurological behavioral effects of lead are considered irreversible. Young children particularly vulnerable to poisoning. In 2020, Pure Earth UNICEF estimated that one in three had elevated blood levels above 5 µg/dL. sources vary around the world range from household products, such as spices or foodware, environmental pollution nearby industries. aim this study was analyze common products markets low-...
While modeled estimates and studies in contaminated areas indicate high lead exposure among children Bihar, India, local data on the child population is limited.
