Cotinine as a Sentinel of Canine Exposure to Tobacco Smoke

Animals, 2023
The adverse health effects of both active and passive tobacco smoke have been well-known in humans for a long time. It is presumable that even pets, which intimately share the owner’s lifestyle, may be exposed to the same risks.

Secondhand tobacco smoke exposure among children under 5 years old: questionnaires versus cotinine biomarkers: a cohort study

BMJ Open, 2021
Objectives Cotinine is the gold standard to estimate prevalence of secondhand tobacco smoke (SHS) exposure, and assay limit of detection (LOD) cut-points are typically used regardless of age. Our aim was to compare the concordance between mother-reported

Secondhand smoke is positively associated with pre-frailty and frailty in non-smoking older adults

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
IntroductionEither exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS) or frailty has been linked to adverse health outcomes in nonsmoking adults. However, their relationship is rarely studied.

An ETH‐LAD trip with unfavourable consequences: A case report

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Numerous analogues of the psychedelic and internationally controlled hallucinogen LSD have been described; however, only a limited number have been systematically investigated. This report presents the first case with an analytically confirmed ingestion of ETH‐LAD (6‐ethyl‐6‐nor‐lysergic acid diethylamide), the N‐ethyl derivative of LSD.

Machine Learning–Based Comparative Analysis of Blood Cell–Derived Inflammatory Indices for Predicting MAFLD and Liver Fibrosis: Evidence From NHANES 2017–2020

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This research assesses the correlations and diagnostic efficacy of blood cell‐derived inflammatory indicators in predicting metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and liver fibrosis using NHANES 2017–2020 data. AISI had the highest predictive capability for MAFLD, while PLR served as the most efficacious indicator for fibrosis ...

Smoking effects on root coverage outcomes between 3 and 12 months: A prospective cohort study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate the impact of smoking on root coverage outcomes, comparing healing responses at 3–12 months following coronally advanced flap with a connective tissue graft (CAF+CTG). Methods This prospective cohort study included 27 participants (13 smokers, 14 non‐smokers) who required root coverage for a single Cairo

Joint and Independent Associations of Dietary Antioxidant Intakes With Advanced Stages in Older Patients With Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Metabolic Syndrome

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored the association between the composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) and cardiovascular‐kidney‐metabolic (CKM) progression in an older population. Using data from NHANES 2001–2020, we analyzed 4974 adults aged ≥ 60 years with CKM syndrome. The CDAI was calculated from the intake of six dietary antioxidants.

Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects of Chemical Pollutants and Parasitic Fungi on Cyanobacterial Metabolism

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly impacted by anthropogenic pollutants, including the widely used herbicide metolachlor (MET) and cigarette butt (CB) litter. Parasites represent an additional biotic stressor that can modulate pollutant effects on their hosts.

Assessing smoking status in children, adolescents and adults: cotinine cut-points revisited [PDF]

, 2008
Aims To reassess saliva cotinine cut-points to discriminate smoking status. Cotinine cut-points that are in use were derived from relatively small samples of smokers and non-smokers 20 or more years ago.
