When a mother unintentionally passes a disease to her child during gestation orchildbirth You drink water directly from a stream and experience intestinal distress. You get a stomach ache from eating expired meat airborne disease When standing close to a ...
Although worker injury and fatalities have decreased since adoption of the Occupational Safety and Health Act in 1970, it remains an important safety issue. This article describes a 27-year-old white male who died from occupational exposure to airborne chemicals. Several trends in the last several...
For example, given an additive or multiplicative scale, exposures A and B may combine synergistically, antagonistically, or without interaction to promote disease, and our conceptualization of joint effects encompasses all of these. Here we refer to “interaction” as statistical interaction or effect ...
Exposure to airborne fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has been associated with a variety of adverse health outcomes. To investigate the linkages between PM2.5 exposure and the health outcomes including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the meet-in-middle strate...
Nor is there consensus regarding which specific types of PM are most likely to affect public health in this regard. One toxicological mechanism linking exposure to airborne PM with CVD outcomes is oxidative stress, a contributor to the development of CVD risk factors including atherosclerosis. Recent...
The working environment of these staff is burdened with numerous risks related to the operation of airports. Natural (objective) threats include weather anomalies and other natural factors preventing airport use (strong wind, heavy rainfall, lightning, heavy snowfall and blizzards, fog, or airborne vo...
In the ALEX2 test performed on the material collected after the inhibition tests (o215-IT and f27-IT), no characteristic changes in individual sensitization profiles to various airborne and food allergens (other than mammalian meat allergens) were observed compared to the ALEX2 results obtained be...
The Removal Efficiencies of Several Temperate Tree Species at Adsorbing Airborne Particulate Matter in Urban Forests and Roadsides. Forests 2019, 10, 960. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef] [Green Version] Jones, M.L.M.; Provins, A.; Harper-Simmonds, L.; Holland, M.; Mills, G.; Hayes, F.;...
These minute sizes cause lung diseases that may lead to the loss of life due to the accumulation of inhalable dust pollutants (100 µ) in the lungs [3]. The total suspended particles (TSPs) or airborne dust particles (ADPs) include the sum of >PM10 + PM10 + PM2.5 and are called ...
