Differences in inflammation and acute phase response but similar genotoxicity in mice following pulmonary exposure to graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)We investigated toxicity of 2–3 layered >1 μm sized graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) in mice following single intratracheal exposure with respect to pulmonary inflammation, acute phase response (biomarker ... -
Frequency of breaks, amount of muscular rest, and sustained muscle activity related to neck pain in a pooled dataset
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Neck pain remains a persistent challenge in modern society and is frequently encountered across a wide range of occupations, particularly those involving repetitive and monotonous tasks. It might be expected that patterns ... -
Human resource primacy, dispositional optimism, and chest pain: A prospective, cross-lagged study of work, personality, and health
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Chest pain (CP) is common, frightening, and often medically unexplained. Occupational psychological factors are associated with somatic pain. Personality may influence both perceived working conditions and somatic health, ... -
Metal additive manufacturing and possible clinical markers for the monitoring of exposure-related health effects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Additive manufacturing (AM) includes a series of techniques used to create products, in several different materials, such as metal, polymer or ceramics, with digital models. The main advantage of AM is that it allows the ... -
Metal exposure from additive manufacturing and its effect on the nasal lavage fluid proteome - a pilot study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The use of metal additive manufacturing (AM) is steadily increasing and is an emerging concern regarding occupational exposure. In this study, non-invasive sampled nasal lavage fluid (NLF) from the upper airways was collected ... -
Obesity, metabolic factors and risk of different histological types of lung cancer: A Mendelian randomization study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Background Assessing the relationship between lung cancer and metabolic conditions is challenging because of the confounding effect of tobacco. Mendelian randomization (MR), or the use of genetic instrumental variables to ... -
Perinatal exposure to a human relevant mixture of persistent organic pollutants: Effects on mammary gland development, ovarian folliculogenesis and liver in CD-1 mice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The ability of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) with endocrine disrupting properties to interfere with the developing reproductive system is of increasing concern. POPs are transferred from dams to offspring and the ... -
Role of IL1A rs1800587, IL1B rs1143627 and IL1RN rs2234677 genotype regarding development of chronic lumbar radicular pain; A prospective one-year study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Previous studies indicate that lumbar radicular pain following disc herniation may be associated with release of several pro-inflammatory mediators, including interleukin-1 (IL1). In the present study, we examined how ... -
Rotating night work, lifestyle factors, obesity and promoter methylation in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes among nurses and midwives
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Some recent evidence suggests that environmental and lifestyle factors may modify DNA methylation. We hypothesized that rotating night work and several modifiable factors may be associated with the methylation of the ... -
Supporting the working life exposome: Annotating occupational exposure for enhanced literature search
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Anindividual’s likelihood of developing non-communicable diseases is often influenced by the types, intensities and duration of exposures at work. Job exposure matrices provide exposure estimates associated with different ...
