In 2019, over 8.5 million individuals were diagnosed with PD globally, representing a doubling of cases over the past 25 years. Data of ethnic variation prevalence in US indicate more common occurrence of PD in White people than other ethnicities, although data for \"Native Americans,\" is not available. Ethnic comparisons in Brazil also indicate more common prevalence of PD in White people, while no such cases have been reported in the indigenous people. In Brazil, this may be related to income concentration and better living conditions for white people, which results in greater longevity, the most important risk factor for Parkinson's disease. On the other hand, whether this is due to extensive use of tobacco by this ethnic group remains to be seen as numerous epidemiological data indicates an inverse relationship between smoking and PD. Although smoking can result in premature death, nicotine, the addictive component, has not only potent neuroprotective properties but also other therapeutic potentials. Indeed, tobacco has been historically used by indigenous and African-South American people for the treatment of a variety of diseases. Nonetheless, important controlled clinical trials on the effectiveness of nicotine in such diseases are lacking. In this article, we review the use of tobacco by indigenous and Afro-descendants in Brazil as a prelude to the pharmacological use of nicotine in modern medicine. Specifically, we discuss how this knowledge can contribute to a potential novel therapy for PD.","PeriodicalId":73740,"journal":{"name":"Journal of environmental science and public health","volume":"10 3","pages":"62-71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13492552/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148802626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The nation's energy use is increasing progressively. One of the greenest forms of energy is LNG. Natural gas, a liquefied gas, uses ultra-low temperatures and purification. In this study, the assessment of LNG carrier vehicles was evaluated from the perspective of Bangladesh. A cryogenic liquid tanker truck, called an LNG carrier vehicle, was found in the survey to carry liquefied natural gas in an environment with extremely low temperatures. Even though LNG is flammable, explosive, cryogenic, and has other characteristics, the safety design of an LNG carrier vehicle is crucial for the security of road transportation. Time consumption analysis and economic section analysis were conducted, and the truck was found to be the ultimate solution. LNG cryogenic liquid storage tanks, trailer running gear, piping systems, a control box, and other parts are often found in LNG carrier vehicles. Utilizing statistical tools, the validity of the survey and its findings will be evaluated by the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The safety design study for these two systems was the topic of this work. A report on the compatibility of the best method for transporting LNG within all feasible safety conditions will be made possible by the research.","PeriodicalId":73740,"journal":{"name":"Journal of environmental science and public health","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134996685","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}

Although experimental and circumstantial data suggest that PFOS induces endothelial dysfunction, leading to decreased uterine arterial blood flow and gestational hypertension, the precise regulatory mechanisms responsible for this effect remain unknown. To address this issue, we treated human uterine artery endothelial cells (hUAECs) isolated from pregnant women with 10 μmol/L PFOS or vehicle and conducted comparative transcriptomic analyses. We identified a total of 19 differentially expressed genes, 9 of which were upregulated and 10 were down-regulated in PFOS-treated pregnant hUAECs. Pre-ranked gene set enrichment analysis unveiled a distinct set of activated genes involved in osmotic stress, cellular stress response, translation regulation, metabolic regulation, and oxidation-reduction processes in PFOS-treated pregnant hUAECs. Furthermore, PFOS treatment resulted in the downregulation of genes implicated in cardiac muscle cell proliferation, embryonic morphogenesis, and muscle cell proliferation. In addition, we observed differential splicing events in 2678 genes in hUAECs exposed to PFOS, with cross-comparison analysis revealing 4 genes that were both differentially expressed and alternatively spliced and were implicated in oxidative stress and cardiac development. In conclusion, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying PFOS-induced gestational uterine artery endothelial dysfunction during pregnancy, offering a valuable resource for future research in this field.","PeriodicalId":73740,"journal":{"name":"Journal of environmental science and public health","volume":"7 2","pages":"79-93"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10388705/pdf/nihms-1906236.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9922381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
