Background: Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal present in environment that has potential to instigate renal toxicity. Didymin (DDM) is a natural flavone, which shows anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic nature. Therefore, the current study was formulated to appraise attenuative potential of DDM against Cd instigated nephrotoxicity.

Long-term exposure to Cd through contaminated food can lead to multiple adverse health effects on humans. Although previous studies have covered global food Cd concentrations and dietary Cd exposures across different populations, there are increasing concerns regarding the adequacy of current food Cd safety standards to protect populations from adverse health effects. Moreover, incorporation of Cd relative bioavailability (Cd-RBA) in foods improves the accuracy of health risk assessment.

Infants are particularly vulnerable to exposure to toxic trace elements due to their developmental stage and behaviors such as mouthing and chewing on toys. Chemical exposure to heavy metals in infants' toys is a significant concern as it poses a threat to their health and well-being. Therefore, quality control measures are essential to prevent infants' exposure to potentially harmful metals.

The impact of lead and cadmium exposure on subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD), indicated by elevated high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTnT) and N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) remains uncertain. We analyzed data from participants aged 20 and older, without overt CVD, in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES; 1999-2004). Elevated lead and cadmium levels were defined as 3.

Sodium chloride, commonly referred to as table salt, is the most widely utilized seasoning in culinary applications. Nevertheless, the most of oral salts used contain impurities. Arsenic (As), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb) are the most common impurities found in salt.
