Several studies have suggested an association between exposure to various metals and the onset of type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the results vary across different studies. We aimed to investigate the associations between serum metal concentrations and the risk of developing T2D among 8734 participants using a prospective cohort study design.

In recent years, new combined oral contraceptives (COCs) have become available, representing an advance in terms of individualization and compliance by users. To provide recommendations regarding COCs: formulations, use, efficacy, benefits and safety. For these recommendations, we have used the modified Delphi methodology and carried out a systematic review of studies found in the literature and reviews performed in humans, published in English and Spanish in Pubmed, Medline and advanced medicine and computer networks until the year 2021, using the combination of terms: 'oral contraceptives', 'estroprogestins' and 'combined oral contraceptives'.

Red swamp crayfish, Procambarus clarkii, is a globally invasive species, which has caused great damage to biodiversity, agriculture, and fishing. Therefore, the development of effective management methods, such as pheromone control, is necessary for biological control and biodiversity protection. However, the components of P.

Despite growing concern about adverse effects of bisphenol AF (BPAF) due to its endocrine disrupting properties, there is a lack of toxicity data from low-dose studies and direct evidence linking its adverse effects to endocrine disrupting properties. Here, we investigated the effects of gestational and postnatal exposure to BPAF through drinking water (0.15-15 μg/mL, equivalent to the daily intake of ~ 50 and 5 mg/kg/day) on testis development in mice.

An effect-directed analysis (EDA) approach was used to identify the compounds responsible for endocrine disruption in a hospital effluent (Basque Country). In order to facilitate the identification of the potentially toxic substances, a sample was collected using an automated onsite large volume solid phase extraction (LV-SPE) system. Then, it was fractionated with a two-step orthogonal chromatographic separation and tested for estrogenic effects with a recombinant yeast (A-YES) in-vitro bioassay.
