Reproductive and developmental toxicity of phthalates

open access: yes, 2009
The purposes of this review are to (1) evaluate human and experimental evidence for adverse effects on reproduction and development in humans, produced by exposure to phthalates, and (2) identify knowledge gaps as for future studies.

Micro‐Nanoplastics Significantly Increase Adverse Events and Economic Burden Associated With Carotid Endarterectomy: A Health Economic Modelling Evaluation

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Current research reports that micro‐nanoplastics may increase the burden of cardiovascular disease with significant human and economic consequences. The detection of plastic particles in biological matrices is challenging and rigorous research is required to investigate the clinical and broader public health implications of microplastics.

Contact sensitisers activate keratinocytes and induce cytotoxicity via Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 in allergic contact dermatitis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a frequent inflammatory skin disease with limited therapeutic options. While neuronal Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) has been implicated in ACD, the role of keratinocyte TRPA1 remains unclear.

Occurrence and Washout of Health‐Hazardous Chemicals in Children's Clothing

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
A survey of 60 children's garments from the Swedish market showed a varying, often highly complex chemical content. The highest levels were generally found in synthetic materials and the lowest in light‐coloured cotton. Further, the washout effect by laundry and sweat migration of textile chemicals was investigated.

Impact of Environmental Exposure on Infant Sleep : The Exposome Approach

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
This review explores how exposure to environmental pollutants during the first 1000 days of life may affect infant sleep. Evidence suggests potential links between chemical exposures and sleep disturbances, underscoring the need for more research on early‐life vulnerability and the impact of pollutants in air, diet, and breast milk.

Association between urinary phthalates and phthalate metabolites and cancer risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesHeliyon
Phthalates, widely utilized in industrial products, are classified as endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs). Although certain phthalate and their metabolites have been implicated in cancer development, the reported findings have exhibited inconsistencies.

Features of the biological phthalates

open access: yes, 2016
Phthalates – a phthalic acid esters, exogenous substances of human origin violate normal hormonal balance in the body. Once in the body, they bind to receptors of hormones and hormone-like effects have, as well, through a feedback mechanism, violate the ...
