Children ’s Lead Exposure: A Multimedia Modeling Analysis to Guide Public Health Decision-Making
Conclusions: This methodology advances scientific understanding of the relationship between lead concentrations in drinking water and BLLs in children. It can guide national health-based benchmarks for lead and related community public health decisions. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1605 Received: 12 January 2017 Revised: 09 May 2017 Accepted: 18 May 2017 Published: 12 September 2017 Address correspondence to V.

Association of Low-Moderate Arsenic Exposure and Arsenic Metabolism with Incident Diabetes and Insulin Resistance in the Strong Heart Family Study
Conclusions: Among participants without baseline prediabetes, arsenic exposure was associated with incident diabetes. Low MMA% was cross-sectional and prospectively associated with higher HOMA2-IR. Research is needed to confirm possible interactions of arsenic metabolism with B vitamins and AS3MT variants on diabetes risk. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP2566 Received: 23 July 2017 Revised: 30 October 2017 Accepted: 7 November 2017 Published: 20 December 2017 Address correspondence to M.

Exposure to Perfluoroalkyl Substances and Metabolic Outcomes in Pregnant Women: Evidence from the Spanish INMA Birth Cohorts
Conclusions: Although further confirmation is required, the findings from this study suggest that PFAS exposures during pregnancy may influence lipid metabolism and glucose tolerance and thus may impact the health of the mother and her child. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1062 Received: 7 September 2016 Revised: 5 October 2017 Accepted: 9 October 2017 Published: 13 November 2017 Address correspondence to M.

Recent Trends in Unpasteurized Fluid Milk Outbreaks, Legalization, and Consumption in the United States
Conclusions From a public health perspective, the lack of consistency and comprehensiveness in measuring production or consumption of unpasteurized milk is problematic; however, this analysis provides a current best estimate of the scale of disease outbreaks due to unpasteurized milk. The potential for foodborne illness continues to be a small but real risk from consuming unpasteurized fluid milk, but analysis of data over a twelve year period demonstrates that increased access to this product within the United States has not led to increased outbreak rates. On the contrary, total reported unpasteurized milk-associated out...

Arsenic and Obesity: A Comparison of Urine Dilution Adjustment Methods
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that arsenic exposure is not associated with obesity, and that urinary creatinine and osmolality may be colliders on the causal pathway from arsenic exposure to obesity, as common descendants of hydration and body composition. In studies of urinary biomarkers and obesity or obesity-related outcomes, alternative metrics such as urinary flow rate or analytic strategies such as covariate-adjusted standardization should be considered. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1202 Received: 07 October 2016 Revised: 21 March 2017 Accepted: 30 March 2017 Published: 28 August 2017 Address correspondence t...

Questionnaire Survey to Pharmacists after a Workshop on the Chemical Structural Formula of Drugs.
Abstract  Recently, it has been reported that only a small number of sixth-year students who had undergone a long-term pre-clinical training in the fifth year found organic chemistry useful. To explain this, we hypothesized that pharmacists are unable to utilize the knowledge of organic chemistry to solve clinical problems. With the aim of addressing this problem, we conducted a workshop consisting of a series of lectures and exercises on structural similarity, solubility, absorption, and metabolism of drugs based on a chemical structural formula. Then, we administered a questionnaire survey to 253 participants ...

Oxidative potential of aerosolized metalworking fluids in occupational settings
Int J Hyg Environ Health. 2021 May 28;235:113775. doi: 10.1016/j.ijheh.2021.113775. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe oxidative potential (OP) measures the ability of pollutants to oxidize a chemical/biological probe. Such assays are starting to gain acceptance as integrative exposure metrics associated with inflammatory-based pathologies. Diseases such as asthma, rhinitis or cancers are reported for workers exposed to oil mist, which are aerosols of metal working fluids (MWF) emitted during the machining of metals. Measuring oil mist in the air is challenging, and exposures are often quantified as the mass fraction, which...
