“…Other risk agents included persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as dioxins, PCBs, and brominated flame retardants, toxic elements or other metals (e.g., nickel, tin) and pesticides. Two RBAs included antimicrobials ( 11 , 12 ), one investigated microcystins ( 13 ), and one included PFAS as a risk agent ( 14 ). An additional study by Marquès et al ( 15 ) included PFAS as a risk agent and was identified in the search but was not considered for our analysis as it was an update to an RBA conducted prior to 2019.…”

“…While Thomsen et al (1) identified the QALY as the primary health metric used, we found it was the DALY. We did not find DALY-or QALY-based optimization studies, but we did identify the study by Thomsen et al (10) that used DALYs to assess substitution of red meat for fish. We also found that studies typically address a specific country or region and their general population, with recommendations that further analysis be done for potentially susceptible subpopulations.…”

“…Of the extracted studies, 18% were qualitative, 16% quantitative [one study being on food substitution (10)] and the majority (66%) were semiquantitative. Single health metrics from the quantitative RBAs included intellectual quotient (IQ), visual recall memory (VRM) or other learning/memory metrics, probability of cardiovascular outcomes, and DALY.…”

Approaches to risk–benefit assessment of seafood consumption: lessons learned from an evidence scan

Qualitative and quantitative risk–benefit assessments (RBA) can be used to support public health decisions in food safety. We conducted an evidence scan to understand the state of the science regarding RBA in seafood to help inform seafood dietary advice in the United States. We collected published RBA studies assessing seafood consumption, designed inclusion and exclusion criteria to screen these studies, and conducted systematic data extraction for the relevant studies published since 2019. Our findings indicate the selection of health risks and benefits does not generally follow a systematic approach. Uncertainty and variability in RBAs is often not addressed, and quantitative RBAs making use of a single health metric generally have not been leveraged to directly support published regulatory decisions or dietary guidance. To elevate the role of RBA in supporting regulatory decision-making, risk assessors and risk managers must work together to set expectations and goals. We identified the need for a prioritization phase (e.g., multicriteria decision analysis model) to determine the risks and benefits of greatest public health impact to inform the RBA design. This prioritization would consider not only the degree of public health impact of each risk and benefit, but also the potential for risks and benefits to converge on common health outcomes and their importance to subpopulations. Including a prioritization could improve the utility of the RBAs to better inform risk management decisions and advance public health. Our work serves to guide the United States Food and Drug Administration’s approaches to RBA in foods.

“…Besides the nationwide monitoring programs, researchers often determine the pesticide residues in/on specialty crops or specific groups of plant commodities [14][15][16][17][18], including feed [19], and fish [20,21]. They perform dietary risk assessment based on the residue levels found and corresponding food consumption data.…”

Evaluation of the Results of Pesticide Residue Analysis in Food Sampled between 2017 and 2021

As mandated by the EU and the national risk management duties, pesticide residues were determined by four specialized laboratories in 9924 samples taken from 119 crops of economic importance in Hungary and imported foodstuffs during 2017–2021. The screening method applied covered 622 pesticide residues as defined for enforcement purposes. The limit of detection ranged between 0.002 and 0.008 mg/kg. The 1.0% violation rate concerning all commodities was lower than in the European Union. No residue was detectable in 45.9% of the samples. For detailed analyses, six commodities (apple, cherry, grape, nectarine/peach, sweet peppers, and strawberry) were selected as they were analyzed in over 195 samples and most frequently contained residues. Besides testing their conformity with national MRLs, applying 0.3 MRL action limits for pre-export control, we found that 73% of the sampled lots would be compliant with ≥90% probability based on a second independent sampling. Multiple residues (2–23) in one sample were detected in 36–50% of the tested lots. Considering the provisions of integrated pest management, and the major pests and diseases of selected crops, normally three to four and exceptionally, seven to nine active ingredients with different modes of action should suffice for their effective and economic protection within four weeks before harvest.
