Association Between Heavy Metal Exposure and Autism Spectrum Disorders: Discrepancies, Research Gaps, and Future Priorities of Human Epidemiological Studies

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children is a major public health challenge. The potential epidemiological links between heavy metal exposure and ASD remains a controversial issue. This critical review examines the epidemiological discrepancies, including variations in exposure assessment, study design, and population differences that ...

Physiological and Behavioural Characterisation of a Novel Steroid Sulfatase‐Deficient Mouse

Genes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 25, Issue 4, August 2026.
STS‐deficient mice are grossly healthy and breed as expected, but are mildly hyperactive and have heavier hearts compared with sex‐matched wildtype controls. ABSTRACT Steroid sulfatase (STS) cleaves sulphate groups from steroid hormones. In humans, STS deficiency is associated with X‐linked ichthyosis, an increased predisposition to neurodevelopmental ...

Interindividual variability in static apnoea performance is partly explained by genetic factors

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 8, Page 3718-3730, 1 August 2026.
Abstract A large interindividual variability exists in maximal apnoea duration and the physiological adjustments that occur during apnoea. Although a few genes have been found to be associated with some of the cardiovascular responses during apnoea, the extent to which genetic and environmental factors contribute to individual differences in apnoea ...

Very low‐amplitude muscle activity increases probability of motor evoked potentials in healthy individuals and in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 8, Page 3492-3501, 1 August 2026.
Abstract Muscle contraction increases motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitude, decreasing motor threshold (MT). Correspondingly, trials where baseline EMG amplitude exceeds a specified threshold are often rejected. We aimed to investigate the influence of motor activity below such a threshold of MEP amplitude.
