Metal Influences on Neurodevelopment in Early Life (MIND EL): Protocol for a Prospective Pregnancy-Birth Cohort Study in Rural Bangladesh (Preprint)

Khalid Khan, Julia S. Benoit, Johanna R. Bick, Karen Carreon Garcia et autres

BACKGROUND Prenatal exposure to toxic metals is a major public health concern in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where environmental contamination commonly occurs as complex mixtures rather than isolated toxicants. Thyroid hormones (TH) play a critical role in fetal brain development, and …

Air Pollution Exposures of Bangladeshi Women from Rural and Peri-Urban Areas: Baseline Assessment for Behavior Change Communication Intervention as a Sustainable Approach

Evana Akhtar, Md. Ahsanul Haq, Md Shamim Hossain, Marzan Sultana et autres

Building on prior evidence that biomass cooking drives personal air pollution in rural and peri-urban Bangladesh, we measured kitchen pollution alongside personal exposure and examined the influence of outdoor industrial and traffic emissions on personal and indoor air quality. In an mHealth …

Metabolic Signature of Arsenic Exposure and Metabolism: The Folic Acid and Creatine Trial

Wending Li, Haotian Wu, Jeff Goldsmith, Ronald Alexander Glabonjat et autres

Arsenic exposure remains a leading public health concern. Folic acid (FA) supplementation enhances one-carbon metabolism (OCM), thus promoting arsenic methylation and facilitating urinary arsenic elimination. Here, we investigate the metabolic profiles linked to arsenic exposure and metabolism based on a FA clinical …
