Associations of smoke‐free policies in multi‐unit housing with smoking behavior and second‐hand smoke exposure: A systematic review

Addiction, Volume 120, Issue 4, Page 578-588, April 2025.
Abstract Background and aim Although considerable progress has been made regarding the implementation of smoke‐free policies (SFPs), many people continue to be exposed to second‐hand smoke (SHS) in the home environment. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review on the association of SFPs in multi‐unit housing (MUH) with smoking behavior ...

Modern Fire Safety Protocols in the Archeological Contexts: A New Tool for Studying the Health and Behavioral Effects of Fire Use in Semi‐Closed Spaces

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluates the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, integrated with controlled fire experiments, to investigate combustion processes in semi‐closed spaces. The framework enables systematic modeling of smoke dispersal, particulate transport, and hearth performance under variable morphologies and ventilation ...

Global Trends and Exposure Profiling of Early‐Onset Type 2 Diabetes: An Ecological Analysis Using Machine Learning

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Early‐onset Type 2 diabetes (EOT2D) is an increasing global health concern. We examined global trends in EOT2D incidence and identified robust population‐level exposure correlates. Methods Using the data from the GBD 2021, we analysed EOT2D incidence among individuals aged 15–39 years across 204 countries and territories from 1990 ...
