A Pathway to Linking Risk and Sustainability Assessments [PDF]

Toxics, 2014
The US National Research Council recently released a report promoting sustainability assessment as the future of environmental regulation. Thirty years earlier, this organization (under the same senior author) had issued a similar report promoting risk assessment as a new method for improving the science behind regulatory decisions.

Virtual risk assessment pathway for deep venous thrombosis: a preliminary model [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2020
AbstractBackgroundCOVID-19 has necessitated the reduction in conventional face-to-face patient consultation to reduce the risk of novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Traditional pathways to risk assess for deep venous thrombosis (DVT) would involve face-to-face assessment to formulate an appropriate management plan following an initial ...

Sustainability and risk assessment matrix (SRAM): pathway to water security [PDF]

Water Supply, 2020
AbstractWater security, as a Sustainable Development Goal, ensures that sustainable water supply is consistently available to every individual. A water supply systems (WSS) assessment matrix was designed as a tool for assessing WSS in low-income countries; with selected urban, peri-urban and rural Nigerian communities as case studies. Sustainability of

Aggregate exposure pathways in support of risk assessment

Current Opinion in Toxicology, 2018
Over time, risk assessment has shifted from establishing relationships between exposure to a single chemical and a resulting adverse health outcome, to evaluation of multiple chemicals and disease outcomes simultaneously. As a result, there is an increasing need to better understand the complex mechanisms that influence risk of chemical and non ...

Pest risk assessment of Amyelois transitella for the European Union

EFSA Journal, 2022
Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest risk assessment of Amyelois transitella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), the navel orangeworm, for the EU. The quantitative assessment considered two scenarios: (i)

Human health risk assessment of lead (Pb) through the environmental-food pathway

Science of The Total Environment, 2022
Drinking water and farm-to-fork pathways have been identified as the predominant environmental pathways associated with human exposure (HE) to Pb. This study integrates a GIS-based survey of metal concentrations in soil and a probabilistic quantitative risk assessment of Pb through the food chain. The case study area was selected in the east of Ireland.
