Total arsenic, dimethylarsinic acid, lead, cadmium, total mercury, methylmercury and hypertension among Asian populations in the United States: NHANES 2011–2018

Modifiable contributing factors to COVID-19: A comprehensive review

“…High-fat-diet has been shown to impact diabetes ( da Cruz et al, 2022 ), hypertension ( Logvinov et al, 2021 ), obesity ( Kang et al, 2022 ), and respiratory diseases ( Li et al, 2021a ). Organophosphate pesticides (and pesticides in general) have been shown to impact diabetes ( Miranda et al, 2022 ), hypertension ( Ledda et al, 2015 ), obesity ( Miranda et al, 2022 ), and respiratory diseases ( Bugay et al, 2022 ), and heavy metals have been shown to impact diabetes ( Wang et al, 2022 ), hypertension ( Tang et al, 2022a ), obesity ( Duc et al, 2022 ), and respiratory diseases ( Yao et al, 2021 ). More data are required to state with confidence that there are strong overlaps between the CFs to COVID-19 and its comorbidities.…”

Update of the risk assessment of inorganic arsenic in food

“…For the present Opinion, the CONTAM Panel identified 87 additional studies from a literature search and from nine systematic reviews (Abhyankar et al, 2012;Bao et al, 2022;Chowdhury et al, 2018;Karachaliou et al, 2021;Moon et al, 2012Moon et al, , 2017Tsuji et al, 2014;Zhao et al, 2021).

Atomic spectrometry update: review of advances in elemental speciation

“…The study also found that AB was the main metabolite and biotransformation species of As in HepG2 cells. A study to investigate the association of As levels with blood pressure levels and prevalence of hypertension among general non-Hispanic Asians has been presented by Tang et al 60 The study used the 2011-2018 US National Health and Nutrition and Examination Survey data. Participants were aged 20 years and older were tested for total As and DMA in blood and urine samples.…”
