Syphilis Control in Populations Previously Exposed to Yaws
International Journal of Epidemiology, 1982Application of an epidemiologic strategy, involving repeated annual screening, public relations activities and treatment to selected groups, for syphilis control in four communities is described. The predictive value of the VDRL screening test was influenced by the titre of the test and the age and location of individuals on whom it was performed.

Investigation of a Population Exposed to Organomercurial Seed Dressings
Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 1969Urinary mercury and protein output rates, together with serum phosphoglucose isomerase activity, in 33 cereal seed dressers in East Scotland, employed seasonally, were compared with 33 age-matched controls. Increased mercury urinary concentrations, significant low-grade proteinuria, and inhibition of serum phosphoglucose isomerase were found.

Cytogenetic Biomonitoring of the Mzamza Population Exposed to Untreated Wastewaters
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2007A cytogenetic biomonitoring study was performed on people from the Mzamza community near Settat, Morocco. These subjects live in and near the Bou Moussa valley where wastewaters from a great number of industries are discharged without any treatment. This wastewater is used as a source of drinking water for their cattle and irrigation of their land. The

In the aftermath of psychological trauma, many individuals experience perturbations in interoception, a term that broadly references the ability to accurately detect body signals and integrate these signals with emotional states. These interoceptive disruptions can manifest in different ways, including blunting or amplification of sensitivity to ...Negar, Fani +2 more

Efficacy of praziquantel in a schistosome-exposed population
2023Urogenital schistosomiasis, caused by the Schistosoma haematobium parasite, is a global cause of morbidity and mortality and affects millions of people each year. The mass drug administration (MDA) of praziquantel (PZQ) is a vital intervention to treat schistosome infections and eliminate schistosomiasis as a public health problem. After decades of use,

Antigenotoxic Activity of Carotenoids in Carcinogen-Exposed Populations
1990Although epidemiological studies suggest the presence of anticarcinogenic agents in the diet, it is difficult to obtain actual proof for the activity of such agents in humans. One approach is to develop and validate potential quantifiable indicators of antigenotoxic/anticarcinogenic agents which can be used in humans belonging to populations at ...
