چکیده
Environmental Health Perspectives • volume 121 | number 7 | July 2013 A 209 Erratum: “A Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Model for the Assessment of Infant Exposure to Persistent Organic Pollutants in Epidemiologic Studies” Verner et al. have reported an error in their article “A Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Model for the Assessment of Infant Exposure to Persistent Organic Pollutants in Epidemiologic Studies ” [Environ Health Perspect 117:481–487 (2009)]. In Figure 1, the arrows on the right pointing toward the placenta (mother model) and brain (infant model) should have pointed away from the placenta and brain. The corrected figure appears below and has also been corrected online.

A Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Model for the Assessment of Infant Exposure to Persistent Organic Pollutants in Epidemiologic Studies
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that pre- and postnatal exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) can promote several adverse effects in children, such as altered neurodevelopment. Epidemiologic studies to date have relied on the analysis of biological samples drawn pre- or post-natally for exposure assessment, an approach that might not capture some key events in the toxicokinetics of ...
متن کاملPhysiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling of Persistent Organic Pollutants for Lifetime Exposure Assessment: A New Tool in Breast Cancer Epidemiologic Studies
BACKGROUND Despite experimental evidence, most epidemiologic studies to date have not supported an association between exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POP) and breast cancer incidence in humans. This may be attributable to difficulties in estimating blood/tissue POP concentration at critical time periods of carcinogenesis. OBJECTIVES In this work we aimed to develop a tool to estim...
متن کاملDEVELOPMENT OF A PHYSIOLOGICALLY BASED TOXICOKINETIC MODEL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE RISK ASSESSMENT OF METHYLENE DIPHENYL DIISOCYANATE(MDI)
Introduction: Given the lack of a developed physiologically based toxicokinetic (PBTK) model for human systemic exposure assessment of methylene diisocyanate (MDI) and prediction of its urinary metabolites, this study aims to develop a PBTK model for exposure risk assessment of MDI. Methods and Materials: In this study, to assess the potential exposure to the MDI, a PBTK model was constructed ...
متن کاملEvaluating the neurotoxic effects of lactational exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in Spanish children.
Although the brain continues developing in the postnatal period, epidemiological studies on the effects of postnatal exposure to neurotoxic POPs through breast-feeding remain mostly inconclusive. Failure to detect associations between postnatal exposure and health outcomes may stem from the limitations of commonly employed approaches to assess lactational exposure. The aim of the present study ...
متن کاملPhysiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for biodistribution of radiolabeled peptides in patients with neuroendocrine tumours
Objective(s): The objectives of this work was to assess the benefits of the application of Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models in patients with different neuroendocrine tumours (NET) who were treatedwith Lu-177 DOTATATE. The model utilises clinical data on biodistribution of radiolabeled peptides (RLPs) obtained by whole body scintigraphy (WBS) of the patients.Methods: The blood...
