Screening - defined as "surveillance to identify a particular inapparent disease or pre-disposing risk factor in all members of a specified population, or a particular health hazard in specified settings or environments".
Increased TEE risk has been suggested to be related not only to the presence of these individual risk factors, but also to the number of pre-disposing risk factors at baseline (Nicolaides and Irving 1975; Wheeler et al, 1982).
Once-confidential oil and gas industry studies have also pointed to another risk from disposing of radioactive materials from drilling or fracking in waterways the risk to fish and aquatic life like crustaceans and mollusks.
