Child Care Center Hand Hygiene Programs’ Cost-Effectiveness in Preventing Respiratory Infections

Artículos Científicos, Igualdad, Mujeres EASP

BACKGROUND We previously demonstrated that a hand hygiene program, including hand sanitizer and educational measures, for day care center (DCC) staff, children, and parents was more effective than a soap-and-water program, with initial observation, in preventing respiratory infections (RIs) in children attending DCCs. We analyzed the cost-effectiveness of these programs in preventing RIs. METHODS A…

Changes in molecular biomarkers of neurotoxicity in newborns following prenatal exposure to organophosphate compounds

Artículos Científicos, Igualdad, Investigación, Mujeres EASP

The rising incidence of neurodevelopmental disorders has been associated with early-life exposure to environmental factors, particularly neurotoxicants like organophosphate compounds (OPCs), which can impact brain development and function. This study examined the relationship between prenatal exposure to OPCs and molecular biomarkers of neurotoxicity in cord blood from 398 mother-child pairs in the GENEIDA birth cohort…

Changes in lifestyle and risk of colorectal cancer in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition

Artículos Científicos, Cáncer, Investigación, Mujeres EASP

Introduction: We investigated the impact of changes in lifestyle habits on colorectal cancer (CRC) risk in a multi-country European cohort. Methods: We used baseline and follow-up questionnaire data from the EPIC cohort to assess changes in lifestyle habits and their associations with CRC development. We calculated a healthy lifestyle index (HLI) score based on smoking…

Cellular immune activity biomarker neopterin is associated hyperlipidemia: results from a large population-based study

Artículos Científicos

Increased serum neopterin had been described in older age two decades ago. Neopterin is a biomarker of systemic adaptive immune activation that could be potentially implicated in metabolic syndrome (MetS). Measurements of waist circumference, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC), systolic and diastolic blood pressure, glycated hemoglobin as components of MetS definition, and plasma total neopterin…

Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Micro- and Nanoplastics Driving Adverse Human Health Effects

Artículos Científicos, Igualdad, Investigación, Mujeres EASP

Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are increasingly recognized as emerging contaminants of concern for human health. Their small size, diverse composition, and reactive surface enable interactions with biological barriers and cellular systems. This comprehensive narrative review synthesizes and critically evaluates current evidence on the mechanistic effects of MNPs in humans and experimental models. Systemic mechanisms, including…
