Non-dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls in early pregnancy and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus

Environment International, 2018
Several studies support a plausible association of human exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, little is known about the potential link between circulating PCBs levels in early pregnancy and development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).

Determinants of Plastic Waste Awareness, Preventive Practices, and Health Symptoms: An Urban‐Rural Comparative Cross‐Sectional Study in Bangladesh

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Plastic waste is an escalating environmental and public health threat, particularly in Bangladesh, where rapid consumption and inadequate waste management exacerbate associated risks. Evidence on urban‐rural disparities in awareness, preventive practices, and related health outcomes remains limited.

Recent Developments in Sustainable Composites for Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs): A Review

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 4, April 2026.
This review presents the potential of using natural plant fibers and biodegradable polymers as sustainable printed circuit boards (PCBs). This review provides future directions in innovation and sustainable PCBs development. Bio‐composites PCBs are both environmentally friendly and sustainable due to the natural fibres they contain.
