Journal ArticleDOI
Symptom prevalence and odor-worry interaction near hazardous waste sites.
TL;DR: In comparison neighborhoods with no nearby waste sites, environmental worry has been found to be associated with symptom occurrence as well, and potential explanations are presented, including the possibility that odors serve as a sensory cue for the manifestation of stress-related illness among individuals concerned about the quality of their neighborhood environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential health effects of odor from animal operations, wastewater treatment, and recycling of byproducts.
Susan S. Schiffman,John M. Walker,Pam Dalton,Tyler S. Lorig,James Raymer,Dennis Shusterman,C. Mike Williams +6 more
TL;DR: This report summarizes the conclusions from the Workshop regarding the potential mechanisms responsible for health symptoms from ambient odors and methods for validation of health symptoms, presence of odor, and efficacy of odor management techniques are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure to organic solvents and adverse pregnancy outcome
TL;DR: Occupational exposure to at least some solvents appears associated with spontaneous abortion, and household use of solvent-containing products was generally not strongly associated with SAB, nor did it appear to confound the association seen with occupational use.
Journal ArticleDOI
A device-independent evaluation of carbonyl emissions from heated electronic cigarette solvents
Ping Wang,Wenhao Chen,Jiawen Liao,Jiawen Liao,Toshiki Matsuo,Toshiki Matsuo,Kazuhide Ito,Jeff Fowles,Dennis Shusterman,Mark J. Mendell,Kazukiyo Kumagai +10 more
TL;DR: A device-independent test method was developed to investigate carbonyl emissions from different e-cigarette liquids under precisely controlled temperatures and PG and GL were identified to be the main sources of toxiccarbonyl compounds from e-cigarettes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Odor-associated Health Complaints: Competing Explanatory Models
TL;DR: The approach to interpretation advocated in this review involves understanding the toxicology of the agent(s) involved and assessing exposure parameters, which involve attitudinal and/or behavioral responses to odors.
