The use of plastics in food packaging, clothing, medical products, and car tires can release small plastic particles that enter the human body through air, food, or direct contact. The World Health Organization has evaluated the health risks associated with these so-called microplastics. However, measuring microplastics in the environment and the human body, as well as toxicological research in animal models and cell cultures, remain challenging. Improved methodologies are needed to enhance the quality and specificity of outcomes. Significant knowledge gaps persist, including the role of microplastics in (infectious) diseases. Recent clinical studies have detected microplastics in human tissues such as blood vessels, kidneys, livers, and brains, and have investigated a relationship with diseases like atherosclerosis and dementia. The Netherlands is highly active in microplastics research and is developing a knowledge agenda to mitigate the health risks of microplastics.</p>","PeriodicalId":18903,"journal":{"name":"Nederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde","volume":"169 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144732362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These policies target the entire population and require limited individual effort to benefit from them. However, assessing the effectiveness of such policies proves challenging due to the long time between exposure and health outcomes, as well as their small effects at the individual level. To identify knowledge gaps regarding effectiveness, a narrative literature review was conducted. This review consistently showed evidence supporting the beneficial effects of subsidies on fruits and vegetables, taxes on unhealthy foods, mass media campaigns, and nutrition and physical education in schools in promoting healthier lifestyles.

This article explores three key areas where AI shows promise: administrative processes, diagnostic support, and patient monitoring. While AI systems can enhance medical diagnostics it also introduces new challenges. Modern AI models, unlike earlier rule-based systems, use millions of parameters that reduce explainability and complicate already existing accountability questions. Additionally, biases in training data can perpetuate healthcare inequalities. Successful implementation requires hybrid systems where healthcare professionals and AI collaborate effectively, supported by appropriate interfaces and digital literacy.
