Scope
Draft cause-effects diagrams D↷
Purpose
Net health effects of fish consumption due to intake of beneficial nutrients and constituents and on the other hand, exposure to environmental contaminants taken up by fish.
Boundaries
- Environmental contaminants relevant from the human health point of view and thus included in the assessment are:
- PCDD/Fs
- PCBs
- Hg (as MetHg)
- Nutritional constituents relevant from the human health point of view include many and can be viewed
[here]. However, readily usable beneficial constituents with quantitative dose-response information available included in the asessment at the moment are:
- fish oils
- omega-3 PUFAs (omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids)
- European subpopulations included in the assessment:
- Finland
- Ireland
- Spain
- Denmark
- Current situation (BAU)
Scenarios
BAU-type assessment (business-as-usual assessment), i.e. a burden-of-disease assessment with only one decision scenario. D↷
Intended users
Experts, researchers and decision makers in the field of environmental health, anyone interested and concerned with beneficial and hazardous constituents in fish species in the markets.
Participants
Participation basically completely open. Some parts containing original data will be protected.
- Everyone interested
- Beneris researchers (full access to the protected parts)
