“…The health outcomes for AA are specific to the urinary systems in humans AA has been associated with other adverse health outcomes such as ESRD, UTTs, and other transitional cell carcinomas (5,69) The health outcomes for AA are specific to the urinary systems in humans OTA has been associated with other adverse health outcomes such as ESRD, UTTs, nephritic syndrome, and other transitional cell carcinomas (118,126) The health outcomes for PAHs are not specific to BEN PAHs such as pyrene, naphthalene, fluorine, and phenanthrene, which have been discovered in well water associated with Pliocene lignoites, have been associated with other adverse health outcomes; these outcomes include hemolytic anemia, kidney damage, liver damage, and jaundice, among others (130) The health outcomes for bacteria and viruses are not specific to BEN Leptospira infections, coronaviruses, and papova viruses have all been associated with other adverse health endpoints other than BEN (129,131) High (86) Higher levels of OTA in blood and urine in BEN patients compared to healthy individuals (89) No dose-response data exists in humans Higher levels of PAHs in BEN-endemic areas compared to nonendemic areas (33) No dose-response data exists in humans (5) Mutations in p53 tumor suppressor gene (5) 78% A:T to T:A mutation rate in tumors (5) OTA promotes adduct formation and increase DNA mutations (7) No specific mechanism proposed due to variety of PAHs found in water contaminated from Pliocene coal Laboratory evidence exists for animals; epidemiologic evidence exists for humans exposed to AA (69) Laboratory evidence exists for animals; (44) epidemiologic evidence exists for humans exposed to OTA (118,155) Only epidemiologic evidence exists correlating Pliocene coals, PAHs, and BEN (30,32) Varied laboratory data on animals exists; epidemiologic evidence shows some correlations between BEN and viruses/bacteria (6,22,157) High…”
