Environmental exposures and sleep outcomes: A review of evidence, potential mechanisms, and implications.
TLDR
Future research is required to tease out the exact pathways of action to explain the associations between each environmental factor and sleep, to inform possible therapies to negate the detrimental effects, and to increase efforts in decreasing exposure to these harmful environmental factors to improve health.About:

Motakatla Venkata Krishna Reddy,K.Y. Rao,Gokanapalli Anusha,G.M. Kumar,A.G. Damu,Kakarla Raghava Reddy,Nagaraj P. Shetti,Tejraj M. Aminabhavi,Peddiahgari Vasu Govardhana Reddy +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential inhibitory activities of various pyridine, quinoxaline, and triazine derivatives (3a-k, 6a-j and 11a-h) against AChE and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) enzymes were explored by following the modified Ellman's method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disruptions of circadian rhythms, sleep, and stress responses in zebrafish: New infrared-based activity monitoring assays for toxicity assessment.
TL;DR: In this paper , a Locomotor Activity Monitor (LAM) was used to study the behavior of zebrafish larvae and characterize the behavioural phenotypes induced by abnormal light conditions and by the Parkinsonian toxin MPP+.

From Florence to fossil fuels: Nursing has always been about environmental health.
Linda McCauley,Rose Hayes +1 more
TL;DR: The history of nursing environmental science and nurses important contributions to the US Environmental Justice Movement are described, including Florence Nightingale's Notes on Nursing, which established Environmental Theory.

Short-term ambient air pollution exposure and adult primary insomnia outpatient visits in Chongqing, China: A time-series analysis.
Dawei Li,Ai-Ling Ji,Zhijing Lin,Jianghong Liu,Chun Lin Tan,Xiaolong Huang,Hua Xiao,E. Tang,Xiao-Ling Liu,Chun-Yan Yao,Yafei Li,Lai-Xin Zhou,Tongjian Cai +12 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper evaluated the correlation of short-term air pollution exposure with adult primary insomnia outpatient visits in Chongqing, China, and the associations were estimated with single-day lags as well as moving average lags using a generalized additive model.

Association Between Exposure to Outdoor Artificial Light at Night and Sleep Disorders Among Children in China
Le-Bing Wang,Yan-Chen Gong,Qiu-Ling Fang,Xin-Xin Cui,Shyamali C. Dharmage,Bin Jalaludin,Luke D. Knibbs,Michael S. Bloom,Yuming Guo,Li Zi Lin,Xiao Wen Zeng,Gongbo Chen,Ru Qing Liu,Yunjiang Yu,L. Hu,Guang-Hui Dong +15 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper found that children with high levels of outdoor ALAN exposure had increased sleep scores and increased odds of sleep disorder symptoms, and the associations were generally stronger in children younger than 12 years.

Worldwide burden of disease from exposure to second-hand smoke: a retrospective analysis of data from 192 countries.
TL;DR: Estimates of worldwide burden of disease attributable to second-hand smoke suggest that substantial health gains could be made by extending effective public health and clinical interventions to reduce passive smoking worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioral and physiological consequences of sleep restriction
Siobhan Banks,David F. Dinges +1 more
TL;DR: Recent experiments reveal that following days of chronic restriction of sleep duration below 7 hours per night, significant daytime cognitive dysfunction accumulates to levels comparable to that found after severe acute total sleep deprivation.

What's measured is what matters: targets and gaming in the English public health care system
Gwyn Bevan,Christopher Hood +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine the robustness of the regime of targets and terror to these assumptions using evidence from the English public health service on reported successes, problems of measurement, and gaming.

Lead neurotoxicity in children: basic mechanisms and clinical correlates.
TL;DR: The present review discusses the current state of knowledge concerning the effects of lead on the cognitive development of children, and suggests that there are toxicological effects with behavioural concomitants at exceedingly low levels of exposure.
