Roh T, Knappett P, Han D, Ludewig G, Kelly K, Wang K, et al.
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2023 Apr; 20(7). PMID: 37048011
Arsenic and atrazine are two water contaminants of high public health concern in Iowa. The occurrence of arsenic and atrazine in drinking water from Iowa's private wells and public water...

Medgyesi D, Trabert B, Sampson J, Weyer P, Prizment A, Fisher J, et al.
Environ Health Perspect . 2022 May; 130(5):57012. PMID: 35622390
Background: Disinfection byproducts (DBPs) and -nitroso compounds (NOC), formed endogenously after nitrate ingestion, are suspected endometrial carcinogens, but epidemiological studies are limited. Objectives: We investigated the relationship of these exposures...

Buller I, Patel D, Weyer P, Prizment A, Jones R, Ward M
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2021 Jul; 18(13). PMID: 34202037
Nitrate and nitrite are precursors in the endogenous formation of N-nitroso compounds (NOC) which are potent animal carcinogens for the organs of the digestive system. We evaluated dietary intakes of...

Medgyesi D, Fisher J, Cervi M, Weyer P, Patel D, Sampson J, et al.
Environ Epidemiol . 2020 Nov; 4(5):e110. PMID: 33154988
Methods: We evaluated residential mobility in the Iowa Women's Health Study (age 55-69 years) over 19 years of follow-up (1986-2004). We assessed several environmental exposures of varying spatial scales at...

Jones R, Stavreva D, Weyer P, Varticovski L, Inoue-Choi M, Medgyesi D, et al.
Sci Total Environ . 2020 Feb; 714:136317. PMID: 32018941
Some anthropogenic substances in drinking water are known or suspected endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs), but EDCs are not routinely measured. We conducted a pilot study of 10 public drinking water...

Jones R, DellaValle C, Weyer P, Robien K, Cantor K, Krasner S, et al.
Environ Int . 2019 Mar; 126:242-251. PMID: 30822653
Background: N-nitroso compounds (NOC) formed endogenously after nitrate/nitrite ingestion and disinfection by-products (DBPs) are suspected colorectal carcinogens, but epidemiologic evidence of these associations is limited. Objectives: We investigated the relationship...

Ward M, Jones R, Brender J, de Kok T, Weyer P, Nolan B, et al.
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2018 Jul; 15(7). PMID: 30041450
Nitrate levels in our water resources have increased in many areas of the world largely due to applications of inorganic fertilizer and animal manure in agricultural areas. The regulatory limit...

Quist A, Inoue-Choi M, Weyer P, Anderson K, Cantor K, Krasner S, et al.
Int J Cancer . 2017 Sep; 142(2):251-261. PMID: 28921575
Nitrate and nitrite are precursors of N-nitroso compounds (NOC), probable human carcinogens that cause pancreatic tumors in animals. Disinfection by-products (DBP) exposures have also been linked with digestive system cancers,...

Krasner S, Cantor K, Weyer P, Hildesheim M, Amy G
J Environ Sci (China) . 2017 Aug; 58:183-190. PMID: 28774607
In the 1980s, a case-control epidemiologic study was conducted in Iowa (USA) to analyze the association between exposure to disinfection by-products (DBPs) and bladder cancer risk. Trihalomethanes (THMs), the most...

Jones R, Weyer P, DellaValle C, Robien K, Cantor K, Krasner S, et al.
Epidemiology . 2017 Mar; 28(5):703-711. PMID: 28252454
Background: N-nitroso compounds formed endogenously after nitrate/nitrite ingestion are animal renal carcinogens. Previous epidemiologic studies of drinking water nitrate did not evaluate other potentially toxic water contaminants, including the suspected...
