• The Effects of Cadmium Toxicity (2020, background): “Thus, heavy metal contamination of both drinking water and rivers with Cd may occur especially in areas near factories or mines [37].”
• Cadmium stress: an oxidative challenge (2010, positive): “…level, Cd induces oxidative stress in many organisms (Bertin and Averbeck 2006; Thévenod 2009), which might result in physiological damage to different organs among which kidneys, liver, lung, pancreas, testes, placenta, and bone (Jarup et al. 1998; Nawrot et al. 2008; Jarup and Åkesson 2009).”
• Glutathione Is a Key Player in Metal-Induced Oxidative Stress Defenses (2012, background): “Regardless of this knowledge, metal emissions are still continuing, particularly in less developed countries [8–10].”
• Cadmium, Environmental Exposure, and Health Outcomes (2009, neutral): “Data from selected studies found the POD for early kidney and bone effects to be between 0.5 and 3 µg/g creatinine (Järup and Åkesson 2009).”
• Toxic Heavy Metal and Metalloid Accumulation in Crop Plants and Foods. (2016, background): “A slow poisoning by chronic Cd and As exposure has been implicated in overall increases in mortality and a range of diseases, including various types of cancer and cardiovascular disease in the case of As (53) and renal damage and osteoporosis in the case of Cd (50).”
• Soil contamination with cadmium, consequences and remediation using organic amendments. (2017, background): “Cd has been classified as a human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) (IARC, 2012) and causes the development of breast cancer in exposed females (Järup and Åkesson, 2009).”
