Epidemiology of green space and health: a walk in the park?
The age-adjusted incidence of many non-communicable diseases (NCDs: allergies, asthma, autoimmune disease, some cancers, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and so on) is rising.1 They are leading causes of hospitalisation and death and many have reached epidemic proportions, with marginalised populations most affected. Causes remain unclear and prevention options are thus often scant or not optimally effective. However, as increases have occurred in recent decades, environmental and lifestyle factors are probably central. Some risk factors are well studied (tobacco, air pollution, diet, phys...

Allergen immunotherapy, cancer, and immune disorders
Purpose of review The purpose of this review is to provide an update on the intriguing relationships between allergies, allergen immunotherapy, cancer, and immune disorders. Allergic diseases and cancer are increasing in incidence and prevalence and a potential relationship, or not, between these diseases have been suggested for many years. Recent findings Recent findings suggest that there may be some causative effects between certain types of cancer and allergic diseases, as described in the text. Some types of cancer may be more linked to the presence of an allergic disease, than others. However, epigenetic f...

Health risk assessment of particulate matter 2.5 in an academic metallurgy workshop
This study highlights the importance of exposure and health studies in academic micro-environments such as metallurgy workshops which are often less researched, and exposure is underestimated. The results also indicated the need to implement control measures to protect the health of the occupants and ensure that the workshop rules are adhered to.PMID:36168227 | DOI:10.1111/ina.13111

Lymph node mapping in gastric cancer: a pilot study in Western patients
Can J Surg. 2022 Sep 21;65(5):E630-E634. doi: 10.1503/cjs.019821. Print 2022 Sep-Oct.ABSTRACTSummaryIn East Asia, the role of lymph node (LN) mapping in assisting surgical lymphadenectomy, which is integral to the management of gastric cancer, has been explored. We sought to evaluate its safety and utility in Western patients. Thirteen patients with nonmetastatic gastric adenocarcinoma received endoscopic, peritumoural, submucosal indocyanine green fluorescence (ICG) injections before surgery, and ICG was assessed intraoperatively using a laparoscopic detection system. All patients underwent a laparoscopic subtotal gastrec...

These chemical compounds are used in a variety of sectors like food, forestry, agriculture and aquaculture. Pesticides shows their toxicity into the living systems. The World Health Organization (WHO) categorizes them based on their detrimental effects, emphasizing the relevance of public health. The usage can be minimized to a least level by using them sparingly with a complete grasp of their categorization, which is beneficial to both human health and the environment.
