A Case Study of Brass Foundry Workers’ Estimated Lead (Pb) Body Burden from Different Exposure Routes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objectives The most pronounced occupational exposure routes for lead (Pb) are inhalation and gastrointestinal uptake mainly through hand-to-mouth behaviour. Skin absorption has been demonstrated for organic Pb compounds, ... -
A Cease in Shift Work Reverses Arterial Stiffness but Increases Weight and Glycosylated Hemoglobin A 5-Month Follow-Up in Industry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: Literature suggests an association between shift work and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Limited evidence is available on how a cessation of shift work affects CVD risk factors. Aim: We investigated whether a ... -
A conceptual framework addressing the complex labour market dynamics of the work-to-retirement process
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The way in which retirement is conceptualized and measured is likely to influence the research findings. The previous literature has addressed a wide range of elements related to the complex work-to-retirement process, ... -
A cross-sectional study of sensory-motor neuropsychological function among sewage plant and sewage net workers exposed to hydrogen sulphide when handling wastewater
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Objectives Workers at sewage treatment plants are exposed to a complex mixture of toxins, including hydrogen sulphide (H2S). An issue of concern among sewage workers, is possible negative nervous system effects from low-level ... -
A cross-sectional study on occupational exposure to microorganisms, endotoxin, hydrogen sulfide, and dust during work at drilling waste treatment plants
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This cross-sectional study aims to obtain knowledge about workers’ exposure to airborne dust, bacterial and fungal species, endotoxin, biofilm formation, and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in drilling waste treatment plants. In ... -
A human exposure based mixture of persistent organic pollutants affects the stress response in female mice and their offspring
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are found in the food chain of both humans and animals and exert a wide spectrum of potentially adverse effects. The present experiment aimed to investigate whether a defined mixture ... -
A Human Relevant Defined Mixture of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) Affects In Vitro Secretion of Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1), but Does not Affect Translocation of its Receptor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Environmental exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) has been suggested as a contributing factor for the increased rate of T2D and obesity. A complex mixture of 29 POPs (Total mixture), based on human blood ... -
A human relevant mixture of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) differentially affect glutamate induced excitotoxic responses in chicken cerebellum granule neurons (CGNs) in vitro
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Primary cultures of cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs) derived from chicken embryos were used to explore the effects on developmental neurotoxicity by a complex defined mixture of persistent organic pollutants (POPs). Its ... -
A human relevant mixture of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) enhance nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Disruption of neurite outgrowth is a marker for neurotoxicity. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are potential developmental neurotoxicants. We investigated their effect on neurite outgrowth in PC12 rat pheochromocytoma ... -
A human relevant mixture of persistent organic pollutants induces reactive oxygen species formation in isolated human leucocytes: Involvement of the β2-adrenergic receptor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Exposure to chlorinated (Cl), brominated (Br) and perfluoroalkyl acid (PFAA) persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is associated with immunotoxicity and other adverse effects in humans and animals. Previous studies on POPs ... -
A human relevant mixture of persistent organic pollutants induces reactive oxygen species formation in isolated human leucocytes: Involvement of the β2-adrenergic receptor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Exposure to chlorinated (Cl), brominated (Br) and perfluoroalkyl acid (PFAA) persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is associated with immunotoxicity and other adverse effects in humans and animals. Previous studies on POPs ... -

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Exposure to chlorinated (Cl), brominated (Br) and perfluoroalkyl acid (PFAA) persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is associated with immunotoxicity and other adverse effects in humans and animals. Previous studies on POPs ... -
A hybrid landmark Aalen-Johansen estimator for transition probabilities in partially non-Markov multi-state models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Multi-state models are increasingly being used to model complex epidemiological and clinical outcomes over time. It is common to assume that the models are Markov, but the assumption can often be unrealistic. The Markov ... -
A mixture of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and Azoxymethane (AOM) show potential synergistic effects on intestinal tumorigenesis in the A/J Min/+ mouse model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018) -
A mixture of persistent organic pollutants relevant for human exposure inhibits the transactivation activity of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor in vitro
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)While humans are exposed to mixtures of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), their risk assessment isusually based on a chemical-by-chemical approach. To assess the health effects associated with mixedexposures, knowledge ... -

A new efficient method to detect genetic interactions for lung cancer GWAS
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have proven successful in predicting genetic risk of disease using single-locus models; however, identifying single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) interactions at the ... -
A practical guidance for assessments of sedentary behavior at work: A PEROSH initiative
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Sedentary behavior is defined as sitting or lying with low energy expenditure. Humans in industrialized societies spend an increasing amount of time in sedentary behaviors every day. This has been associated with detrimental ... -
