Estimation of Urinary Lead and Urinary δ-Aminolevulinic Acid as an Index of Lead Exposure in Urban and Rural Residents of West Bengal, India.
Indian J Occup Environ Med
December 2024
Department of Environmental Science, University of Calcutta, Kolkata, West Bengal, India.
Background: Chronic exposure to low-level environmental lead (Pb) causes several health effects in humans. Its biomonitoring by non-invasive biomarkers is imperative to identify Pb exposure in the occupationally unexposed general public.
Objective: To quantify urinary lead (U-Pb) and urinary δ-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) in the general population of West Bengal, India, and identify the impact of routine life activities (smoking habit, traveling, and cooking activities) and sociodemographic factors on U-Pb and U-ALA levels.
Healthy Lifestyle in the First 1000 Days and Overweight and Obesity Throughout Childhood.
Pediatrics
January 2025
School of Public Health, Physiotherapy and Sports Science, University College Dublin, Dublin, Ireland.
Objectives: Investigate associations of different family healthy lifestyle scores (HLS) during the first 1000 days with childhood overweight and obesity (OWOB).
Methods: Cohort-specific analyses were conducted on participants (n = 25 006) from 4 European birth cohorts (The study on the pre- and early postnatal determinants of child health and development [EDEN], Elfe, France; Generation R, the Netherlands; and Lifeways, Ireland). Three composite HLSs were calculated: a maternal pregnancy HLS based on prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) and diet quality, physical activity, smoking status, and alcohol consumption during pregnancy; a parental pregnancy HLS additionally considering paternal BMI and smoking status; and an infancy HLS based on breastfeeding duration, age of solid food introduction, and exposure to passive smoking.
