Risks of Birth Defects Following In Utero Exposures to Unregulated Brominated Haloacetic Acids
1 Introduction Disinfection of public drinking water via chlorination or chloramination is an extremely important public health intervention, yet these widely used approaches produce unintended chemical disinfection byproducts (DBPs). Some epidemiologic studies in humans (Wright et al. 2017; Kaufman et al. 2018, 2020, 2024; Chisholm et al. 2008; Hwang et al. 2008; Nieuwenhuijsen et al. 2008, 2009) and toxicologic studies in animal models (Plewa et al. 2010; Narotsky et al. 2025, 2011; Hunter 3rd et al.
Epidemiology Evidence for Health Effects of 150 per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances: A Systematic Evidence Map
Abstract Background: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) comprise a large class of chemicals with widespread use and persistence in the environment and in humans; however, most of the epidemiology research has focused on a small subset.
Per-and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Concentrations in Serum and Drinking Water in Pregnant Women from the Greater Cincinnati Area HOME Study | Environmental Health Perspectives | Vol. 2021, No. 1
Per-and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Concentrations in Serum and Drinking Water in Pregnant Women from the Greater Cincinnati Area HOME Study Abstract BACKGROUND AND AIM: The occurrence, fate, and transport of PFAS in the environment is understood, but the contribution of drinking water to serum PFAS concentrations in humans is poorly defined. METHODS: We examined data from a prospective pregnancy and birth cohort (HOME Study) in Cincinnati, Ohio.
A Review of Exposure Assessment Methods Utilized in Studies of Disinfection Byproducts (DBPs) and Birth Defects | Environmental Health Perspectives | Vol. 2021, No. 1
Environmental Health Perspectives is pleased to present this abstract on behalf of the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology (ISEE). This abstract was presented at an ISEE annual meeting and has not been peer reviewed.
The Association between Medium- and High-Resolution Residential Greenspace Measures and Respiratory Health in Children from an Urban Environment
The Association between Medium- and High-Resolution Residential Greenspace Measures and Respiratory Health in Children from an Urban Environment Abstract Previous epidemiological studies of greenspace (GS) and respiratory health studies have not compared GS measures of varying resolution; nor have they examined lung function measures.
Effect of water disinfection type on adverse fetal outcomes
Disinfection by-products (DBPs) have been shown to produce genotoxic, carcinogenic, reproductive, and developmental effects in animals (Richardson et al, 2007; Tyl, 2000).
