Our current manuscript describes the aims and methods of a clustered randomized control trial (cRCT) on how sunlight-reflecting roof coatings, “cool roofs,” affect health, indoor climate, economic and behavioral outcomes in rural sub-Saharan Africa. This region currently suffers the largest disease...
Health effects: In humans and animals, prolonged exposure to solar UV radiation may result in acute and chronic health effects on the skin, eye, and immune system. UVB exposure induces the production of vitamin D in the skin. The majority of positive health effects are related to this vitamin...
People have always considered the exposure to non-ionising radiation with scepticism. The prospect that exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF) can have a deleterious effect or any effect on cellular behaviour has been debated in scientific and journali
Environmental health effects refer to the impacts on human health resulting from exposure to environmental factors such as air, water, soil, and food, which can lead to disparities in health outcomes based on social, economic, and environmental disadvantage. ...
