Association between Environmental Dioxin-Related Toxicants Exposure and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Dioxin-related compounds are associated with teratogenic and mutagenic risks in laboratory animals, and result in adverse pregnancy outcomes. However, there were inconsistent results in epidemiology studies. In view of this difference, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine this association and to assess the heterogeneity among studies. Comprehensive literature searches w...

Predictors of serum dioxin levels among adolescent boys in Chapaevsk, Russia: A cross-sectional pilot study

BACKGROUND Toxicological studies and limited human studies have demonstrated associations between exposure to polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and adverse developmental and reproductive health effects. Given that children may be particularly susceptible to reproductive and developmental effects of organochlorin...

Dioxin Exposure and Age of Pubertal Onset among Russian Boys

BACKGROUND Animal data demonstrate associations of dioxin, furan, and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) exposures with altered male gonadal maturation. It is unclear whether these associations apply to human populations. OBJECTIVES We investigated the association of dioxins, furans, PCBs, and corresponding toxic equivalent (TEQ) concentrations with pubertal onset among boys in a dioxin-contamina...

Sex ratios of children of Russian pesticide producers exposed to dioxin.

We investigated the sex ratio of children of pesticide workers who produced the biocide trichlorophenol and the herbicide 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic acid from 1961 to 1988 in the city of Ufa, Bashkortostan, Russia. We measured exposure of the two related cohorts to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and other dioxins by analyzing 84 blood samples, which produced median TCDD toxic equ...

QSAR Studies of the Dioxins and Interaction of OCDD with Calix[4] Arene Using DFT

Quantum chemical calculations, based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) method, were performed on Calix[4]arene and Polychlorinated Dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) in gas and liquid phases for comparison purposes. The simulation results show the 1,2,3,4, 6,7,8,9-octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (OCDD) is quite a reactive dioxin. This paper attempts to examine the possibility of dioxin adsorption by Calix[n...
