Summary: Analysis of sixteen priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in twenty-one food items consumed by the Pakistani population revealed varying levels of exposure, with fish having the highest and rice the lowest concentrations. The dietary exposure to PAHs showed potential cancer risks for both adults and children, and males generally had higher exposure levels compared to females. Wheat and milk contributed the most to the total dietary exposure of PAHs, while rice and egg contributed the least. Sensitivity analysis identified daily dietary intake, exposure duration, and cancer slope factor as the most influential variables affecting the risk assessment.

Summary: This study evaluated the chronic health risks of residents living near a chemical accident site due to long-term exposure to formaldehyde. Results showed that inhalation exposure to formaldehyde did not cause harmful health impacts for all age groups, but exposure to soil containing formaldehyde did. This study is significant in assessing the residual and temporal concentration changes of a pollutant released in a chemical accident, reflecting the exposure characteristics of the toxic chemical.

Summary: By establishing an effective PPD prediction model, it helps identify high-risk groups and verify if drug intervention benefits these groups. The study showed that the XGB algorithm is more accurate in predicting PPD risk, and early intervention is beneficial for high-risk groups.

Summary: Exposure to toxic air pollutants can increase the lifetime cancer risk among children and adults. It is crucial to raise public awareness, especially among vulnerable groups, about the impact of cancer and reduce exposure to toxic air pollutants to decrease cancer prevalence. Further research using more sophisticated methodology is needed.

Summary: Assessment and treatment pathways based on FRAX-based intervention thresholds in Chile can effectively identify high fracture risk patients and avoid unnecessary treatment for those at low fracture risk. The application of hybrid intervention thresholds helps to address the disparity in fracture probabilities observed with age-dependent thresholds.

Summary: A probabilistic health risk assessment model was proposed to assess the inhalational incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) of cooking oil fume (COF), which revealed that the total ILCR of COF far exceeds the acceptable limit. More attention should be paid to the ILCR of PM2.5, and cooking methods significantly affect the ILCR of carcinogens in COF.

Summary: In risk-stratified cancer screening, incorporating multiple risk factors into risk assessment and using age-dependent absolute risk thresholds are crucial to avoid missing high-risk individuals and ensure accurate risk stratification. Using age-independent risk thresholds may lead to misclassification of individuals with equivalent risk levels and offer them different screening plans. Therefore, age-dependent risk thresholds should be considered for accurate risk assessment and stratification.

Summary: This study quantified the exposure of foundry workers to crystalline silica and associated health risks. The results showed that the concentration of crystalline silica exceeded the occupational exposure limits, and the cancer risks were higher than the standard level. Workers in sand preparation and molding stations faced the highest cancer risks, and all foundry stations had non-cancer health risks beyond the safe level. The use of engineering controls and respirators could significantly reduce the health risks.

Summary: The inability to quantify the difference between ambient temperature (AT) and personal exposure temperature (PET) is a common limitation in environmental health research. This study aims to explore a more reasonable temperature exposure calculation method to relate PET to AT and links heat exposure to adverse health events. The results showed that hourly PET was significantly related to AT, meteorological factors, and individual behavior. Daily AT(DHAT) was closely associated with PETDHAT in different regions, especially in respiratory diseases.

Summary: This study evaluated the developmental toxicity of oxaliplatin (OXA) on zebrafish embryos. The results showed that OXA exposure caused developmental abnormalities, reduced hatching rate, and induced oxidative stress and apoptosis.

Summary: Despite decades of research, population models in chemical risk assessment have limited practical utility. A novel application of Endogenous Lifecycle Models (ELM) offers cost-effective benefits, capturing endogenous lifecycle processes and estimating chemical impacts on avian lifecycles. ELMs prioritize general understanding over precision, integrating naturally with adverse outcome pathway framework for midtier risk assessment.

Summary: Risk assessment methodology needs to consider the complexity of the environment, including the changing exposure to multiple sources of chemicals throughout life. The latest methodologies aim to improve the assessment of heavy metals and other chemicals by better describing their toxicokinetics, toxicodynamics, and exposure assessment. Human Biomonitoring (HBM) data and Physiologically-Based Toxicokinetic (PBTK) models are valuable tools for linking exposure biomarkers with adverse effects and predicting the impact of exposures.

Summary: This paper suggests that the origin of the LNT concept for ionizing radiation was based on a lack of understanding of evolution, leading to the establishment of the linear no threshold dose response model. However, modern advancements in repair mechanisms have shown that the historical foundations of LNT were flawed.
