<p align="left">The environment plays an important role in human development and health. Researchers have linked exposures to some environmental hazards with specific diseases, such as the link between exposure to asbestos and lung cancer and the link between exposure to lead and decreased mental function in children. Other linkages are more difficult to determine, especially when exposures to multiple chemicals or other types of agents occur. Ambient air pollution, worker exposure to chemicals, indoor air pollution, and drinking water quality are among the top four threats to human health.</p>

|
||
<p>The NLM Division of Specialized Information Services (SIS) environmental health and toxicology portal can be found at http://tox.nlm.nih.gov. This is the starting point for information on chemicals, drugs, chemical, biological and radiation weapons, and environmental health issues.</p>

<p align="center">Environmental Health and Toxicology homepage</p>
|
||
<p>NLM’s toxicology and environmental health information portal links health professionals and the public to many resources produced by NLM and other organizations. Today, I’ll show you a few highlights and give you an overview of new or updated resources. You’ll find all of them at the “tox” URL on the pens we distributed. I encourage you to use this page as a jumping–off point for exploring the wide range of resources we have in environmental health.</p>

<p>About this Portal</p>
|
||
<p><br />The NLM Drug Information Portal gives users a gateway to selected drug information from the National Library of Medicine and other key government agencies. At the top of the page are links to individual resources with potential drug information, including summaries tailored to various audiences. Resources include the NLM search systems useful in searching for a drug, NLM research resources, resources organized by audience and class, and other NIH and government resources such as FDA and CDC. <br /><br />The search box in the middle of the page lets you search many of these resources simultaneously. More than 12,000 drugs can be searched using this facility. The portal covers drugs from the time they are entered into clinical trials (Clinicaltrials.gov) through their entry in the market place (Drugs@FDA). The PubMed/Medline link provides medical literature describing research, and TOXLINE provides toxicology literature. Resources such as MedlinePlus provide easy to read summaries of the uses and efficacy of a drug. <br /><br />You may search by a drug’s trade name or generic name. For example, the trade name “Advil” and the generic name “ibuprofen” will retrieve the same drug record. A spell checker gives suggestions if the name is not found. You can find embedded portions of names by using an asterisk at the beginning and/or end of a search term. Once a drug is found, a summary of the drug’s type and usage is given, as well as links leading to further information at one of the portal’s resources. Outside links open in a new window. Within a given drug record, you may click on the drug category and retrieve drugs with the same or similar uses. <br /><br />JavaScript must be enabled in your browser for the NLM Drug Information Portal to work properly.</p>

<p align="center">Dietary Supplements Labels Database</p>
|
||
<p>The Drug Information Portal helps you locate web resources about a drug and here is one of the resources it points to.</p>
|
||
<p>The Dietary Supplements LABELS Database contains information on the ingredients of over 2,000 brands of dietary supplements sold in the U.S. and is designed to help not only researchers, but the large audience of supplement consumers as well.</p>
|
||
<p>While consumer-oriented information about dietary supplements is available from many sources, this database consolidates and centralizes the information that consumers require to make informed decisions about supplements and provides direct links to pertinent health information and on-going clinical studies at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).</p>
|
||
<p>**********************</p>
|
||
<p>The database is designed to help answer the following typical questions:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>What are the ingredients in specific brands?</li>
|
||
<li>Which brands contain specific chemical ingredients?</li>
|
||
<li>What fraction of daily recommended nutrients is provided by a specific brand?</li>
|
||
<li>Can I compare the amount of a specific nutrient between brands?</li>
|
||
<li>What are inactive ingredients in each brand?</li>
|
||
<li>Which brands do not contain animal products?</li>
|
||
<li>Can I find studies that indicate the proven medical benefits of specific ingredients?</li>
|
||
<li>Can I find information on the toxicity of specific ingredients?</li>
|
||
<li>Who manufactures a specific brand? How do I contact this manufacturer?</li>
|
||
<li>What other information is available about chemicals in the toxicology-related databases of the National Library of Medicine?</li>

|
||
<p>Moving away from drugs and supplements, I want to give you an update on two resources, REMM and WISER, that may prove invaluable in disaster response.</p>
|
||
<p>First is REMM, the Radiological Event Medical Management system, released in early March last year.</p>
|
||
<p>REMM gives health care providers guidance on diagnosis and treatment in the event of a radiation emergency. It represents a collaboration of NLM with HHS office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response.</p>
|
||
<p>REMM is designed for Health Care Providers (HCPs) <em>without</em> formal expertise in radiation safety or radiation medicine who may provide medical care during an accidental or non-accidental Radiation Event. This site is <strong>not</strong> specifically designed for the general public.</p>
|
||
<p><strong>PLEASE! </strong>Very important to download to CD, keep one in the ER, one in the hospital library and one at home.</p>

<p><strong>What is WISER? </strong></p>
|
||
<p><strong>The <em>W</em>ireless <em>I</em>nformation <em>S</em>ystem for <em>E</em>mergency <em>R</em>esponders </strong></p>
|
||
<p>(WISER) is a system designed to assist first responders in hazardous material incidents. WISER provides a wide range of information on hazardous substances, including substance identification support, physical characteristics, human health information, and containment and suppression advice.</p>
|
||
<p>There have been over nearly 120,000 downloads of WISER onto PDAs and Windows lap or desktops since 2005.</p>
|
||
<p>A web version of WISER was released in early 2006. It provides the same functionality as the PDA version and can be used by emergency responders with pcs or laptops and Internet access either onsite or back at the main facility. It is also used as a training device for emergency responders.</p>

<p><strong><em>Why is it important to get update information?</em></strong></p>
|
||
<p>The information in WISER is derived from the peer-reviewed Hazardous Substances Data Bank, and we have conducted a verification process. However, updates to substance data may be made as more research is conducted. We would like to be able to inform you of important changes in the data, some of which may be critical for the safe use of the information.</p>

<p>While we’re on the subject of disasters and emergencies, I’ll mention several new</p>
|
||
<p>“web-liographies,” or lists of links on a variety of important or “hot” topics. In the past year, we’ve added Emergency and Disaster Preparedness for Special Populations, California Wildfires, and Tornadoes. And also information on “Keeping the Artist Safe: Hazards of Arts and Crafts Materials.”</p>
|
||
<p>*************</p>
|
||
<p>These lists of selected links include canned searches of several NLM databases, including PUBMED, TOXLINE, and HSDB.</p>
|
||
<p>The enviro-health links include some consumer health links, especially MedlinePlus, but also include more technical links as well.</p>

|
||
<p align="center">TOXNET</p>
|
||
<p>Let’s take a look at TOXNET, NLM’s premier toxicology and env. health resource. </p>
|
||
<p>All the resources I just reviewed are NOT searched in TOXNET. I’ll now give you an update on those that ARE included in TOXNET.</p>
|
||
<p>[TOXNET is a collection of a variety of types of databases, including online handbooks, bibliographic databases, information on the release of chemicals in the environment, and chemical names and structures.]</p>
|
||
<p>We’ve added one new resource this year, the Carcinogenic Potency Database, developed by the Carcinogenic Potency Project at the University of California, Berkeley, and by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.</p>
|
||
<p>[about: It reports analyses of animal cancer tests on 1547 chemicals. Results for each chemical are now searchable via TOXNET. CPDB includes 6540 chronic, long-term animal cancer tests (both positive and negative for carcinogenicity) from the general published literature as well as from the National Cancer Institute and the National Toxicology Program. Such tests are used in support of cancer risk assessments for humans. Information that is important in the interpretation of bioassays is reported in CPDB for each experiment.Users can search for results on each chemical in TOXNET via chemical name or name fragment, or by Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number (RN). Results include a summary for each sex-species tested, including carcinogenicity, target organs, and carcinogenic potency values. Detailed results from each experiment on the particular chemical are given in a plot format suitable for screen viewing. Chemical structure, InChI, and SMILES codes are reported.]</p>
|
||
<p>Here is a sample TOXNET search. Enter your search, “arsenic drinking water” and all the databases listed on the left are searched</p>

<p align="center">TOXNET Results Screen</p>
|
||
<p>The search results give you the number of records retrieved from each database that is part of TOXNET.</p>
|

<p>There have been updates to some of TOXNET’s components…</p>

|
||
<p align="center">TOXMAP</p>
|
||
<p>…Let’s take a look at the TOXMAP home page</p>
|
||
<p>Data updates</p>
|
||
<p>** TOXMAP now contains the most recent Toxics Release Inventory data for 2006</p>
|
||
<p>** And has updated Cancer, mortality, and Income data</p>

<p align="center">TOXMAP map of Chicago area</p>
|
||
<p>This map, generated by TOXMAP, shows all the manufacturing sites in the Chicago area that must report their releases to the EPA and shows Superfund contaminated sites.</p>
|
||
<p>[Toxmap includes data from the EPA Toxics Release Inventory and sites from the Superfund National Priorities List of contaminated sites waiting for clean-up]</p>

|
||
<p align="center">TOXMAP map of Texas</p>
|
||
<p>maps have been improved with more detailed mapping of roads and links from facilities to Google maps</p>
|
||
<p>You can now also create your own “Geographic Region” in TOXMAP, or select a pre-defined region from a list and search WITHIN that region. This feature was highly requested by users.</p>
|
||
<p>****************</p>
|
||
<p>**More search options</p>
|
||
<p> -Now you can search TOXMAP by CAS/RN, TRI facility name/ID, release medium, release year ranges, release amount, Superfund NPL site name/ID, and Hazard Ranking System (HRS) score.</p>
|
||
<p>Geographic Regions</p>
|
||
<p>You can now also create your own “Geographic Region” in TOXMAP, or select a pre-defined region from a list. Setting a geographic region <strong>limits your search results to those inside the specified region</strong>. Regions can be saved, edited, and deleted.</p>
|
||
<p>Health Risk Information</p>
|
||
<p>Chemical health risk information has also been added</p>

|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>LactMed is a one-year-old database on the possible effects of over 600 drugs on lactation, breastfeeding, and the breastfed infant. It is designed for health professionals, such as ob/gyns, pediatricians, midwives, nurses, as well as lactation consultants and nursing mothers. 112 new drugs were added in 2007. LactMed has brought many new users to TOXNET, especially health professionals.</p>

|
||
<p>Here’s the redesigned look, just released last week.</p>
|
||
<p>1,000 new products , now has over 8,000 products including 1500 MSDS.</p>

|
||
<p align="center">ChemIDPlus Lite</p>
|
||
<p>Just a reminder of ChemIDplus as a terrific tool for locating not only basic information ABOUT a chemical but also dozens of sources of additional information. For example, you’ll see a search here on St. John’s Wort points you to the new Dietary Supplements Labels Database as well as PubMed searches and other resources. In the last year, there were many improvements to the file locator, over 160,000 changes I’m told.</p>
|
||
<p>Also new this year, are additional radiological agents, vaccines, and chemicals that can be used as weapons.</p>
|
||
<p>That ends our whirlwind tour of what’s new with environmental health Internet resources and databases from SIS.</p>

|
||
<p>As a bonus, I thought you might be interested in a new effort and office in the Specialized Information Services division. You’ll be hearing a lot about this during the conference. NLM has created a new Disaster Information Management Research Center that’s been unfolding over the last year and just became official this month.</p>
|
||
<p>It’s based on <em>Recommendation 1.6. of NLM’s Long Range Plan, </em>“quote” Establish a Disaster Information Management Research Center at NLM to make a strong commitment to disaster remediation and to provide a platform for demonstrating how libraries and librarians can be part of the solution to this national problem.</p>
|
||
<p>All divisions of NLM and certainly the National Network of Libraries of Medicine will be working together on disaster information and on disaster readiness for libraries.</p>
