Dioxin contamination in Vietnam has had a long-term impact on the environment and human health, particularly in hotspots of high contamination [1,2,3,4]. This has mainly been related to the use of herbicides, especially Agent Orange, which contains 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD...
For a long time, scientists considered genotoxic effects as the major issue concerning the influence of environmental chemicals on human health. Over the last decades, a new layer superimposed the genome, i.e., the epigenome, tremendously changing this point of view. The term “epigenetics” comp...
Human health can be impacted byclimate changeboth directly and mediated through environmental effects. Empirical literature is mostly focused on health effects associated with exposure to extreme temperatures [75]. The current impact of climate change on human health is not well quantified, but is est...

The short- and medium-term effects of conflict on population health are reasonably well documented. Less considered are its consequences across generations and potential harms to the health of children yet to be born. Looking first at the nature and effe
discussed. These include smoke, Unburned Hydrocarbons (UBH), volatiles, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), other nitrogenous pollutants, sulphur, chlorine compounds and dioxins. Trace metals and particularly the interaction of K–Cl–S chemistry and aerosol emissions are ...
among the blood of the workers who had engaged in maintenance of the furnace, electric dust collection, and the wet scrubber of the incinerator were higher compared with those of residents in surrounding areas, but there were no clinical signs or findings correlated to blood levels of dioxins. ...
