Within these areas, there were considerable interest in synergism, diluents, degradation, contactors, surfactants, hydrometallurgical applications, environmental and secondary applications, and health and safety.
The majority of genes implicated in these pathways were differentially associated with FA in individuals at high familial risk, suggesting interactions with genetic background or environmental factors secondary to familial risk for BD.
The report also discussed environmental and secondary exposures, which we know contribute to a new, younger patient profile for mesothelioma.
Because of the widespread use of asbestos fibres in Belgium, careful consideration is required to distinguish occupational asbestos exposure from environmental or secondary exposure.
Environmental and secondary occupational exposures to asbestos have been associated with malignant mesothelioma and benign pleural disease in several settings (Ferrante et al. 2007; Reid et al. 2008, 2009).
Taken together, these data support the hypothesis that the development of ePE is primarily driven by an underlying placental lesion with negligible influence from environmental or secondary inflammatory stimuli, whereas in lPE the contribution by the placenta is not as pronounced, but the maternal immune system has become more sensitive to secondary inflammatory stimuli.
Menopause-associated changes in mood may result from a wide range of variables, including elevated sensitivity to environmental events secondary to decreased hormonal levels, changes in socioeconomic and/or marital status, culture, lifestyle factors, level of education, and history of depressive symptoms [ 29, 30].
Secondary metabolite accumulation is a common plant response to biotic or abiotic environmental stress, and secondary messengers are widely employed to mediate the accumulation of plant secondary metabolites.
Using Geographic Information Systems GISS) 62 and the spatial analysis of secondary environmental data, individual exposure to neighbourhood structural and environmental risks will be captured and quantified.
It's mission statement – "to cause no unnecessary harm, use business to inspire and implement solutions to the environmental crisis" – is secondary.
