Prenatal urinary phthalate metabolites levels and neurodevelopment in children at two and three years of age.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that sex plays a role of an effect modifier in the association between prenatal phthalate exposure and neurodevelopment, and differential effects by gender were found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictors of urinary bisphenol A and phthalate metabolite concentrations in Mexican children

Early Life Exposure in Mexico to ENvironmental Toxicants (ELEMENT) Project

TL;DR: The ELEMENT Project is a mother–child pregnancy and birth cohort originally initiated to explore whether enhanced mobilisation of lead from maternal bone stores during pregnancy poses a risk to fetal and subsequent offspring neurodevelopment, and whether maternal calcium supplementation during pregnancy and lactation can suppress bone lead mobilisation and mitigate the adverse effects of lead exposure on offspring health and development.
