Veröffentlichung Ultrafeine Partikel in der Umgebungsluft - aktueller Wissensstand(2018) Becker, Kerstin; Birmili, Wolfram; Plaß, Dietrich; Süring, Katrin; Tobollik, MyriamUltrafeine Partikel (UFP) sind in den letzten Jahren zu einem häufig diskutierten Thema in der Luftreinhaltung geworden. Auch das Umweltbundesamt (UBA) erreichen aus Politik, Fachkreisen und der allgemeinen Öffentlichkeit zunehmend Fragen bezüglich der Bedeutung von UFP für Umwelt und Gesundheit. Der Artikel gibt einen Überblick zum aktuellen Stand des Wissens. Ausgehend von der Definition der UFP werden die Möglichkeiten ihrer Messung sowie die bislang nur eingeschränkt aussagekräftigen Erkenntnisse bezüglich ihrer gesundheitlichen Auswirkungen erläutert.Veröffentlichung Umweltbedingte Krankheitslasten in Deutschland(2018) Steckling, Nadine; Myck, Thomas; Mertes, Hanna; Plaß, Dietrich; Ziese, Thomas; Tobollik, Myriam; Wintermeyer, Dirk; Hornberg, ClaudiaVeröffentlichung Environmental burden of disease approach(2017) Tobollik, Myriam; Tobollik, T.; Brodner, B.Veröffentlichung Experiences shared by the (future) Public Health Workforce during the COVD-19 pandemic in Germany: results of a survey on workload, work content, and related challenges among students and young professionals(2022) Fischer, Florian; Wicherski, Julia; Tobollik, MyriamAlthough previous studies have focused on the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on various professional groups (particularly in the health and nursing care sector), this study aims to close a research gap by assessing perspectives of students and young professionals in epidemiology and public health in Germany in terms of shifts in workload, work content, and related challenges caused by the pandemic. We conducted a cross-sectional survey between mid-February and mid-March 2022. Quantitative data were analyzed via standardized mean differences. Qualitative data based on answers to open-ended questions were analyzed via a qualitative content analysis. Overall, 172 individuals participated in this survey. Results indicate that students felt burdened the most by lack of exchange with other students and lecturers. Study participants employed in public health experienced changes in their employment because they had changes in their work content- and administration, which was accompanied by a high burden due to the workload. Multiple demands that can have an impact on both acquired skills and mental health during the professional qualification phase were mentioned by the participants. Therefore, more in-depth analyses are needed to investigate the impact the pandemic will have on the (future) public health workforce in the long run. © 2022 by the authorsVeröffentlichung Stickstoffdioxid aus dem Verkehr - ein Gesundheitsrisiko(2016) Kallweit, Dagmar; Plaß, Dietrich; Tobollik, Myriam; Deutschland. UmweltbundesamtVeröffentlichung Biomonitoring of arsenic, cadmium and lead in two artisanal and small-scale gold mining areas in Zimbabwe(2022) Rakete, Stefan; Moonga, Given; Wahl, Anna-Maria; Tobollik, MyriamPeople living and working in artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) areas are frequently exposed to elemental mercury (Hg), which is used for gold extraction. However, additional exposure to other toxic metals such as arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) may result from mining-related activities and could be ingested via dust, water or food. In these areas, only limited biomonitoring data is available for toxic metals other than Hg. In particular, data about the exposure to As, Cd and Pb is unavailable for the Zimbabwean population. Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional study in two ASGM areas in Zimbabwe to evaluate the internal exposure to these metals. In total, urine and blood samples from 207 people that identified themselves as miners were collected and analysed for As and Cd in urine as well as Pb in blood by GF-AAS. Median levels (interquartile ranges in (micro)g/l) of As and Pb were 9.7 (micro)g/l (4.0, 18.5) and 19.7 (micro)g/l (12.5, 34.5), respectively. The 25th percentile and the median for Cd were below the limit of detection (0.5 (micro)g/l); the 75th percentile was at 0.9 (micro)g/l. The results were compared to reference values found for the general population in the USA and Germany, and a significant number of participants exceeded these values (As, 33 %; Cd, 27 %; Pb, 32 %), indicating a relevant exposure to toxic metals. Although not representative for the Zimbabwean population, our results demonstrate that the exposure to toxic metals is relevant for the public health in Zimbabwe and requires further investigation. © 2021, The Author(s)Veröffentlichung Veröffentlichung Quantifying the environmental burden of disease for children and adolescents in Germany(2023) Kienzler, Sarah; Plaß, Dietrich; Tobollik, Myriam; Wintermeyer, DirkVeröffentlichung Krankheitslast durch Feinstaub(2017) Plaß, Dietrich; Tobollik, Myriam; Wintermeyer, DirkVeröffentlichung Burden of Disease Due to Traffic Noise in Germany(2019) Hintzsche, Matthias; Myck, Thomas; Plaß, Dietrich; Tobollik, Myriam; Wothge, JördisTraffic noise is nearly ubiquitous and thus can affect the health of many people. Using the German noise mapping data according to the Directive 2002/49/EC of 2017 and exposure-response functions for ischemic heart disease, noise annoyance and sleep disturbance assessed by the World Health Organizationâ€Ìs Environmental Noise Guidelines for the European Region the burden of disease due to traffic noise is quantified. The burden of disease is expressed in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and its components. The highest burden was found for road traffic noise, with 75,896 DALYs when only considering moderate evidence. When including all available evidence, 176,888 DALYs can be attributable to road traffic noise. The burden due to aircraft and railway noise is lower because fewer people are exposed. Comparing the burden by health outcomes, the biggest share is due to ischemic heart disease (90%) in regard to aircraft noise, however, the lowest evidence was expressed for the association between traffic noise and ischemic heart disease. Therefore, the results should be interpreted with caution. Using alternative input parameters (e.g., exposure data) can lead to a much higher burden. Nevertheless, environmental noise is an important risk factor which leads to considerable loss of healthy life years. Quelle: https://www.mdpi.com
