Efficacy of Fermented Brown Rice by Aspergillus oryzae (FBRA) in Ulcerative Colitis: A Double‐Blind Randomized Trial

JGH Open, Volume 10, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a diffuse, nonspecific inflammation of the colon of unknown cause. Basic and clinical studies suggest that UC may be ameliorated by dietary fiber intake. Fermented brown rice by Aspergillus oryzae (FBRA) is produced by fermenting brown rice and bran with A. oryzae. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of FBRA

Revisiting the Association of Pesticide Exposure and Parkinson's Disease: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 10, Page 875-888, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The association between pesticide exposure and Parkinson's disease (PD) is substantial, but heterogeneity in methodology and lack of categorization according to the type of exposure and pesticide classes in previous meta‐analyses impair the interpretation of data. This study aims to update evidence of the association between pesticide exposure

Dependent Articulation in the Global Pesticide Complex: Argentina's Agrochemical Industry After the Generics Market Revolution

Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 26, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Since the late 1990s, the pesticide industry has undergone a ‘generics revolution’ as the centre of production, and trade has shifted to the global South. China and India have become major producers, capturing Latin American markets from Northern multinationals. As a major pesticide user and a key node in global supply chains, Argentina offers

Satire and Silence under Authoritarian Rule: Cotton and Pesticide Perceptions in Tajikistan

Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 26, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the past 70 years, agricultural chemicals have become a mainstay of cotton farming in Central Asia. This growing reliance on agrochemicals has not remained uncontested. This article analyses the politics of pesticides in Soviet and post‐Soviet Tajikistan by examining how, and to what extent, pesticides have featured in graphic satire, an ...

Residence Near Agricultural Crops at Birth and Risk of Adult Testicular Germ Cell Tumors: A French Nationwide Case–Control Study Using Historical Aerial GIS Data

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 5, Page 1153-1166, 1 September 2026.
As the incidence of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) rises, prenatal exposure to agricultural pesticides may represent an important risk factor. Here, geographic information system‐based measures of farmland proximity at birth were used as a proxy for early‐life pesticide exposure in France, a major pesticide consumer.

Alternative treatments for indoor residual spraying for malaria control in a village with pyrethroid- and DDT-resistant vectors in the Gambia.

PLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundMalaria vector control is threatened by resistance to pyrethroids, the only class of insecticides used for treating bed nets. The second major vector control method is indoor residual spraying with pyrethroids or the organochloride DDT. However,
