MicroRNA Changes in Firefighters [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Occupational & Environmental Medicine, 2018
Firefighters have elevated cancer incidence and mortality rates. MicroRNAs play prominent roles in carcinogenesis, but have not been previously evaluated in firefighters.Blood from 52 incumbent and 45 new recruit nonsmoking firefighters was analyzed for microRNA expression, and the results adjusted for age, obesity, ethnicity, and multiple comparisons ...

Toward Long‐Term Reliable Human‐Machine Interaction: A Flexible, Breathable, and Self‐Powered Pressure Sensor System With Firefighting Validation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work develops a breathable potentiometric self‐powered pressure sensor with good wearability, using a non‐woven fabric substrate and hydrogel electrolyte. The sensor is integrated into a five‐channel smart glove to acquire reliable hand motion signals, which are processed by a CNN for identity verification and smart vehicle control in human ...

High‐Temperature Persistent Luminescence and Anti‐Thermal Quenching in LiGa5O8 by Trap Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cu/Zn co‐doping creates deep and thermally stable traps in LiGa5O8, enabling enhanced high‐temperature persistent luminescence, anti‐thermal‐quenching emission, and dynamic blue‐to‐red color evolution. ABSTRACT High‐temperature luminescent materials are essential for applications in displays, information storage, anti‐counterfeiting, and extreme ...

Respiratory Responses during Exercise in Self-contained Breathing Apparatus among Firefighters and Nonfirefighters

open access: yesSafety and Health at Work, 2018
Background: Firefighters are required to use self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), which impairs ventilatory mechanics. We hypothesized that firefighters have elevated arterial CO2 when using SCBA.

Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Exposure Profiles and Their Predictors in a Study of US Volunteer Firefighters

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Firefighters may experience occupational exposure to per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Volunteer firefighters make up 65% of the US fire service, but their serum PFAS profiles have not been well characterized. This study aims to (1) describe PFAS serum profiles among US volunteer firefighters from 9 states enrolled in ...
