Occupational exposure limits have traditionally focused on preventing morbidity and mortality arising from inhalation exposures to individual chemical stressors in the workplace. While central to occupational risk assessment, occupational exposure limits have limited application as a refined disease prevention tool because they do not account for all of the complexities of the work and non-occu...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: cigarette smoke contains many oxidants and may alter the human reproduction by inducing oxidative stress (os) in both active and passive smokers. this study was designed to evaluate the effect of environmental tobacco smoke (ets) exposure on oxidative stress in the follicular follicle and the assisted reproduction outcomes. materials and...

Assessments of inhalation exposure to environmental agents necessitate quantitative estimates of pulmonary ventilation rates. Estimating a range of exposures in a given population requires an understanding of the variability of ventilation rates in the population. Distributions of ventilation rates (Ve) were described based on the results of a large study where Ve were measured while subjects p...

background: high level radiation areas have been recognized on various parts of the earth. mahallat hot spring region is one of these areas. study of exposure in these areas can be helpful in investigating the effects of ionizing radiation. internal and external exposure to the staff was studied. materials and methods: used materials and instruments include: rss-112 ionizing chamber for environ...

Background: In most industries, employees are in contact with various chemical agents. The objective of this study was to assess the health risks posed by occupational exposure to harmful chemical agents in a pesticide manufacturing plant in Zahedan, Iran, in 2013. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in different units of a pesticide manufacturing plant. In order to...

Smoking botanical cannabis often produces tachycardia. However, infrequent reports describe bradycardia, particularly with edibles, concentrates, and resins. We compared the rate of tachycardia in ...

We estimate the “unhedged interest rate exposure” (URE) of euro area households. The URE, defined by Auclert (2019), is a welfare metric that captures extent to which households are exposed changes in real rates, and allows an assessment redistributive effects associated with monetary policy decisions. examine distribution UREs along net wealth, income, age housing status distributions for as w...
