Introduction
Tomáš Janoš, PhD in Environmental Health Sciences, currently works at RECETOX center of Masaryk University and is a visiting Postdoctoral Researcher at Climate, Air Pollution, Nature and Urban Health program at ISGlobal. His research interests cover most of environmental epidemiology. Primarily, the impacts of weather and climate change on health and their socioeconomic determinants. Studying the exposures to chemicals via human biomonitoring and their possible associaitons with health effects.

Background: Only little is known about trends in temperature-mortality associations among the most vulnerable subgroups, especially in the areas of central and eastern Europe, which are considered major climatic hotspots in terms of heatwave exposure. Thus, we aimed to assess trends in temperature-related mortality in the Czech Republic by sex, age...

Oxidative stress is an important toxicity and genotoxicity mechanism of many chronic adverse health outcomes. This study developed a sensitive extraction method for urine matrix (based on lyophilization, without the need for pre-cleaning by solid phase extraction), coupled to LC-MS/MS analysis of the biomarker 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG)....

Current-use pesticide (CUP) exposure occurs mainly through diet and environmental application in both agricultural and urban settings. While pesticide exposure has been associated with many adverse health outcomes, the intermediary molecular mechanisms are still not completely elucidated. Among others, their roles in epigenetics (DNA methylation) a...

Background The impact of the urban environment on human health is a contemporary subject of environmental research. Air pollution is often considered a leading environmental driver. However, a plethora of other factors within the urban exposome may be involved. At the same time, the resolution of spatial data is also an important facet to consider....

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Pesticides exposure occurs through diet and environmental application readily in both agricultural and urban settings. While pesticides exposure has been associated with many health effects, the question of the adverse outcome pathways is still not clearly answered. Among various molecular mechanisms linked to pesticide-induced...

Current-use pesticides (CUP) are extensively applied in both agricultural and urban settings. Exposure occurs mainly via the dietary pathway; however, other pathways such as inhalation or skin contact are also important. In this study, urinary levels of 12 CUP metabolites were investigated among 110 parent-child pairs during two seasons of 2020. Me...

The aim of this work was to estimate the share of selected significant risk factors for respiratory cancer in the overall incidence of this disease and their comparison in two environmentally different burdened regions. A combination of a longitudinal cross-sectional population study with a US EPA health risk assessment methodology was used. The re...
Article
Background Perfluoralkylated substances (PFASs) are persistent and bioaccumulative environmental contaminants. They are included on the list of emergent compounds monitored in the frame of HBM4EU project. Objectives To analyze PFASs levels in human milk samples collected in the period 2006 through 2017, to follow their time trends, to assess the P...

The aim of this work is to summarize the results of epidemiological studies related to the impact of long-term exposure to air pollution on health and to provide a comprehensive overview of the methodology of health risk and impact assessment. Long-term exposure to ambient air pollution (AAP) is considered a significant determinant of health. Accor...

Knowledge of population exposure to phthalates based on the urinary metabolite levels is of the highest importance for health risk assessment. Such data are scarce in the Czech population. In the study conducted in 2016, six urinary phthalate metabolites were analysed in a total of 370 first morning urine samples of healthy children aged 5 and 9 ye...

Question
Is there any difference between NEL (No effect level) and NOEL (No observed effect level) or NOAEL (No observed adverse effect level)? If so, what is the difference?
