The effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields exposure on tinnitus, migraine and non-specific symptoms in the general and working population: A protocol for a systematic review on human observational studies
Environ Int. 2021 Sep 6;157:106852. doi: 10.1016/j.envint.2021.106852. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Applications emitting radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF; 100 kHz to 300 GHz) are widely used for communication (e.g. mobile phones), in medicine (diathermy) and in industry (RF heaters). Concern has been raised that RF-EMF exposure affects health related quality of life, because a part of the population reports to experience a variety of symptoms related to low exposure levels below regulatory limits.OBJECTIVES: To systematically review the effects of longer-term or repeated local and whole human bod...

Identifying and Describing the Impact of Cyclone, Storm and Flood Related Disasters on Treatment Management, Care and Exacerbations of Non-communicable Diseases and the Implications for Public Health
Conclusion Cyclone, flood and storm related disasters impact on treatment management and overall care for people with NCDs. This results in an increased risk of exacerbation of illness or even death. The interruption may be caused by a range of factors, such as damaged transport routes, reduced health services, loss of power and evacuations. The health impact varies according to the NCD. For people with chronic respiratory diseases, a disaster increases the risk of acute exacerbation. Meanwhile, for people with cancer, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes there is an increased risk of their illness exacerbating, which can ...

A new paradigm to search for allergenic proteins in novel foods by integrating proteomics analysis and in silico sequence homology prediction: Focus on spirulina and chlorella microalgae
Talanta. 2021 Dec 30;240:123188. doi: 10.1016/j.talanta.2021.123188. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSince novel nutrient sources with high protein content, such as yeast, fungi, bacteria, algae, and insects, are increasingly introduced in the consumer market, safety evaluation studies on their potentially allergenic proteins are required. A pipeline for in silico establishing the sequence-based homology between proteins of spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) and chlorella (Chlorella vulgaris) micro-algae and those included in the AllergenOnline (AO) database (AllergenOnline.org) is described. The extracted proteins were first...

Intergovernmental engagement on health impacts of climate change
CONCLUSION: Our analysis indicated a higher engagement in countries that carry the heaviest climate-related health burdens, but lack necessary resources to address the impacts of climate change. These countries are shouldering responsibility for reminding the global community of the implications of climate change for people's health.PMID:33551504 | PMC:PMC7856366 | DOI:10.2471/BLT.20.270033
