Urinary nicotine metabolites: usefulness as biomarkers of smoking status
metabolism, with higher ratios indicating faster metabolism. Evidence shows that the ratio, in urine, saliva or plasma, could predict responses to smoking cessation medication and guide pharmacotherapy. Since ...
Childhood Leukaemia incidence around the Belgian nuclear sites: Surrogate exposure modelling.
exposure-response relationship using Generalized Additive Models.Results: For the nuclear power plants of Doel and Tihange, no evidence of a gradient in childhood leukaemia cancer incidence related to any surrogate ...
Cytome assay in two cell lines exposed to ELF-magnetic fields: An investigation on the relation between exposure to ELF-magnetic fields and an alleged increased risk for Alzheimer's disease.
(especially involving chromosomes 17 and 21) and gene amplification are hypothesized as factors that may be responsible for Alzheimer's disease and there are a few data in the literature showing that these ...

Cadmium exposure in the population: from health risks to strategies of prevention.
the effects of cadmium (Cd) on human health and their prevention. Recently, there has been substantial progress in the exploration of the shape of the Cd concentration-response function on osteoporosis ...
Thyroid cancer incidence near nuclear sites in Belgium: An ecological study at small geographical level.
the Belgian nuclear sites. Significant exposure-response relationships were also observed for the site of Fleurus. Further investigations into these findings could be useful to allow inferring causal ...
Childhood leukemia near nuclear sites in Belgium: An ecological study at small geographical level.
models to investigate (i) the incidence of childhood acute leukemia within 20 km around the four Belgian nuclear sites, (ii) exposure-response relationships between cancer incidence and surrogate exposures ...
Collaborative development of an innovative provocation protocol in studying electrohypersensitivity
characterised by a variety of non-specific symptoms that are attributed to electromagnetic fields (EMF) by electrohypersensitive people (EHP). However, despite the great distress of certain individuals, symptoms ...
