Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis: Plant‐Based Therapy for Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder of brain‐gut interaction that presents with abdominal pain, bloating associated with variable stool consistency. Many IBS patients prefer plant‐based preparations to pharmacological therapy; however, the utility of this approach is not well established.

Variation on Toxic and Inflammatory Potential of Coal Smoke of Different Sources From a Region With High Lung Cancer Risk

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess lung cancer risk in Xuanwei and Fuyuan, China, has been attributed to household air pollution from use of a locally sourced smoky (bituminous) coal. However, the carcinogenic mechanisms remain unclear. Given the important role of inflammation in lung cancer development, this study compared the proinflammatory potentials of the ...

Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Maternal Lead Exposure Induces Glandular Alterations in the Salivary Glands of Rat Male Offspring

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lead (Pb) is a widely distributed environmental pollutant that is highly noxious due to its toxicokinetic characteristics. Pb exposure can damage vital organ systems, including the central nervous and stomatognathic systems. As salivary glands play an important role in oral homeostasis, this study aimed to investigate the effects of maternal ...

From Consumer Plastics to Aquatic Toxicants: Oxidative and Endocrine Effects of Microplastics on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) Larvae

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.
