OCCUPATIONS AND THE VENEREAL DISEASES [PDF]

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1915
Venereal diseases are, of course, not directly related to occupations, and are therefore in no sense to be considered as occupational diseases. There is ample evidence, however, to prove that the character of certain occupations and the environment of certain industries are important predisposing factors in their spread.

RKIP overexpression reduces lung adenocarcinoma aggressiveness and sensitizes cells to EGFR‐targeted therapies

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RKIP, a metastasis suppressor protein, modulates key oncogenic pathways in lung adenocarcinoma. In silico analyses linked low RKIP expression to poor survival. Functional studies revealed RKIP overexpression reduces tumor aggressiveness and enhances sensitivity to EGFR‐targeted therapies, while its loss promotes resistance.

Occupational Diseases in Korea

Journal of Korean Medical Science, 2010
Korea has industrialized since the 1970s. Pneumoconiosis in coal miners was the most common occupational disease in the 1970s to 1980s. With the industrialization, the use of many chemicals have increased since the 1970s. As a consequence, there were outbreaks of occupational diseases caused by poisonous chemicals, such as heavy metal poisoning ...

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis as a Multistep Process in the United States: A Population‐Based Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal, progressive neurodegenerative disease that typically results in death within 3–5 years from symptom onset. However, little is known about the environmental exposures, clinical aspects, or social determinants of health factors that may be associated with the disease.

Active Seizures Predict Worse Instrumental Activities of Daily Living in Individuals With Normal Cognition and Dementia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Cognitive disorders are common in older persons with seizures (PWS). Cognitive disorders are often associated with impaired Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs). However, the effects of seizures on IADLs remain unexplored.

Genetic polymorphisms of metabolic enzyme genes associated with leukocyte mitochondrial DNA copy number in PAHs exposure workers

Cancer Reports, 2021
Background Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) exposure had been reported to be a risk factor of mtDNAcn in our early study. However, the effect of metabolic enzymes' genetic polymorphisms on mtDNAcn in PAHs‐Exposure workers has not been fully ...

Ageism in Rheumatology: The Health Care Professional's Perspective

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Ageism (age‐based stereotypes, prejudice, or discrimination) is prevalent and linked to prolonged disability and reduced lifespan in older adults. Little is known about ageism within rheumatology. This study explores the health care professional's (HCP) perception of the care of older adults and how ageist attitudes or perspectives may impact

An Optoelectrically Switched, Dual‐Mode Neuromorphic Sensor for Transient and Accumulative Gas Detection

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A transistor‐type carbon nanotube gas sensor with dual‐mode detection capability has been proposed. By simply adjusting the gate voltage and UV illumination, this sensor enables both real‐time detection and accumulation‐based sensing of toxic gases within a single device, providing a compact and adaptable platform for environmental monitoring ...

Consequences and Mechanisms of Noise‐Induced Cochlear Synaptopathy and Hidden Hearing Loss, With Focuses on Signal Perception in Noise and Temporal Processing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Noise‐induced synaptopathy (NIS) is largely reversible due to self‐repair. NIS and noise‐induced hidden hearing loss are two concepts with similarities and differences. The major hearing deficits in NIHHL are temporal processing disorders. The translation of animal data in NIS studies to humans is hindered by many factors.
