Journal ArticleDOI
An overview of commercially used brominated flame retardants, their applications, their use patterns in different countries/regions and possible modes of release.
TL;DR: An overview of the production and usage of bromine over the past three decades is covered, and production, application, and environmental occurrence of high production brominated flame retardants including Tetrabromobisphenol A, polybrominated biphenyls, Penta-, Octa-, Deca-brominate diphenyl ether (oxide) formulation and hexabromocyclodododecane are discussed.

TL;DR: This epidemiologic study demonstrates neurodevelopmental effects in relation to cord blood PBDE concentrations, and indicates that children with higher concentrations of BDEs 47, 99, or 100 scored lower on tests of mental and physical development at 12–48 and 72 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
International patterns and trends in thyroid cancer incidence, 1973–2002

TL;DR: Analysis of published CI5 data suggests that thyroid cancer rates increased between 1973 and 2002 in most populations worldwide, and that the increase does not appear to be restricted to a particular region of the world or by the underlying rates of thyroid cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review on human exposure to brominated flame retardants—particularly polybrominated diphenyl ethers
TL;DR: The current review addresses human exposure routes and levels of BFRs with a major data set on internal exposures to polybrominated diphenyl ethers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low Dose Organochlorine Pesticides and Polychlorinated Biphenyls Predict Obesity, Dyslipidemia, and Insulin Resistance among People Free of Diabetes
Duk Hee Lee,Michael W. Steffes,Andreas Sjödin,Richard S. Jones,Larry L. Needham,David R. Jacobs,David R. Jacobs +6 more
TL;DR: Simultaneous exposure to various POPs in the general population may contribute to development of obesity, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance, common precursors of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
