NIH Websites Are Changing
NIH is moving the launch of its new website to the fall to ensure the best possible experience for everyone who relies on our websites for health information, research, funding opportunities, and other resources.
The aWARE tool will be a resource for the public and the research community to help make research on ASD and environmental factors more findable, accessible, and ultimately more useful.
Researchers in DTT developed an interactive tool to help the public and research community explore the scientific literature on physical and social environmental factors and cardiovascular disease (CVD). CVD is the leading cause of death in the United States and worldwide.
Organohalogen flame retardants are a large group of chemicals often divided into subclasses. Researchers in DTT are evaluating the health effects evidence for subclasses of these chemicals collectively, considering both structural similarity and biological mechanisms of effects.
Dextr is a web-based tool that supports automated data extraction of published research for literature reviews. Workflow enables users to verify entities, connect related data, leverage controlled vocabularies, and extract data from text or tables.
DTT researchers are conducting systematic reviews to identify and evaluate the scientific evidence on whether exposures to glyphosate and GBHs are associated with cancer or male reproductive health outcomes.
DTT researchers are developing a systematic evidence map to characterize biomarkers associated with HDP. This interactive tool will enable users to explore the data, advance understanding of HDP biomarkers, and assess the utility of rodent models to environmental exposures.
DTT is conducting a systematic review to evaluate the evidence that environmental exposures contribute to inflammation that leads to atherosclerosis. Scoping activities resulted in selection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as the focus for the evaluation.
This scoping review identifies known health hazards and evidence gaps from chemicals released into the environment from the 2023 train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio.
A growing body of research suggests that some chemicals found in personal care products may affect human health, such as impacting the timing of puberty or altering fetal growth. DTT is using a “class-based” approach to identify and assess scientific evidence for groups of related chemicals.
