2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo- p -dioxin ( TCDD ) is a by-product of polychlorinated phenol manufacture, especially the germicide hexachlorophene and the herbicide 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (TCP) and is considered one of the most powerful man-made toxic molecules....
When our cohort reached 3 years of age, we performed a health impact survey to determine whether there was an association between perinatal dioxin exposure and autistic traits measured using the Autism Spectrum Rating Scales (ASRS), and found that perinatal TCDD exposure increased social emotional di...
Dioxin exposure at significant dose levels has been linked to a large number of adverse health effects. Large acute exposures, resulting from chemical accidents or occupational exposure to dioxins, have caused a severe skin condition known aschloracne. A variety of other skin effects,...
the concentration of dioxin in the air and soil, the exposure routes, dose and health impact of dioxin in the surrounding environment in China. The existing studies show that the concentration of dioxin emitted from MSWI in China is
Dioxin exposure at significant dose levels has been linked to a large number of adverse health effects. Large acute exposures, resulting from chemical accidents or occupational exposure to dioxins, have caused a severe skin condition known as chloracne. A variety of other skin effects, such as ras...
More information on topics such as mechanism of interaction, effects at low levels of exposure, interspecies differences, and sensitive populations is needed. Some differences exist between USEPA's approach to dioxin assessment and that of other health organizations around the world. The authors ...
First, we adopted the external exposure and blood level of TCDD to thoroughly assess the association between TCDD and cancer incidence and mortality. Second, subgroup analyses and dose-response analyses were applied, which further strengthened the conclusions and emphasized the TCDD effects on some ...
Human exposure to polychlorinated dibenzodioxins (PCDD) and dibenzofurans (PCDF), especially 2,3,7,8 tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), was investigated in Vietnam since initial severe adverse health effects were reported in the late 1970s. The purpose of this study was to determine the ...

We found that these levels were approximately 4-fold greater than those of lactating mothers residing in non-exposure regions (Anh et al., 2017). We have followed up on a birth cohort in Bien Hoa and Kim Bang, Vietnam, since 2010–2011, and investigated the effects of exposure to ...
