Mineworkers' Perspectives on Whole‐Body Vibration Exposures in the Ghanaian Mining Industry

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Across most industries, there appears to be greater commitment to occupational safety than to occupational health, largely because safety effects are readily observable, whereas health effects are hard to notice, as they take prolonged exposure to become apparent.

Study on Classification and Detection of Operational Fatigue in Deep‐Well Mining Truck Drivers Based on GSWOA‐LSSVM

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effectively detecting the operational fatigue of miners can identify safety risks in mines. As the executors of auxiliary transportation in mines, the operational fatigue status of mining truck drivers deserves particular attention and detection.

Cyanogenic Compounds, Physicochemical Parameters and Metals in Water From Cassava Processing Areas: A Study in the Brazilian Amazon, Using Multivariate Analysis

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the water quality of artesian wells and effluents generated in cassava processing in a rural area of Bragança, Pará, with emphasis on physicochemical parameters, multielement composition, and cyanogenic compounds. The well water presented specific nonconformities, highlighting pH values below the recommended level and high

Hearing impairment caused by occupational noise.

South African medical journal = Suid-Afrikaanse tydskrif vir geneeskunde, 1972
Occupational noise-induced hearing impairment is an insidiously developing injury which only becomes apparent when it affects the hearing of conversational speech. As no remedy is possible, prevention is the only answer. In view of the impending legislation in South Africa a review of the literature is presented.

PFOA Exposure Elicits Quantitative Lipidomic Changes in the Pancreas in a Mouse Model of Pancreatic Cancer

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the US and predicted to rise to second by 2030. Several risk factors have been identified as potential contributors to pancreatic cancer development including lifestyle factors and long‐term exposure to occupational and environmental carcinogens.

Integrative Bioinformatics, Experimental Validation, and Interpretable Machine Learning Reveal Oxyresveratrol‐Mediated Protection Against Cadmium‐Induced Lung Adenocarcinoma‐Related Transcriptional Dysregulation

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal strongly implicated in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) through mechanisms involving oxidative stress, epigenetic dysregulation, and chronic inflammation. This study aimed to identify Cd‐responsive genes associated with LUAD and to evaluate the protective effects of oxyresveratrol (O‐RES) against Cd‐induced ...

Establishment of a Human Cell‐Based In Vitro Test System for Investigating and Evaluating Cytotoxic and Immunomodulatory Effects of Indoor Mold

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mold growth in damp indoor environments is a widespread problem associated with respiratory health effects, though causal mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We established a human cell‐based in vitro test system using bronchial epithelial cells (NuLi‐1) and macrophages (THP‐1) to assess inhalation toxicity and immunomodulatory effects ...

An Experimental Study on the Protective Effect of Memantine in Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study examined the potential protective effects of memantine, an N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, against acoustic trauma (AT) in guinea pigs, using electrophysiological and histopathological analyses. Methods Thirty guinea pigs with normal hearing were divided into six groups (n = 5 per group): Group 1 (control),
