Birgit Bjerre Høyer,Cecilia Høst Ramlau-Hansen,Henning S. Pedersen,Katarzyna Góralczyk,Lyubov Chumak,Bo A. G. Jönsson,Jens Peter Bonde,Gunnar Toft +7 more
TL;DR: In utero exposure to CB-153 and p,p′-DDE was not associated with parentally retrospectively assessed developmental milestones in infancy or parentally assessed motor skills at young school age.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jens Peter Bonde,Esben Meulengracht Flachs,Susie Rimborg,Clara Helene Glazer,Aleksander Giwercman,Cecilia Høst Ramlau-Hansen,Karin Sørig Hougaard,Birgit Bjerre Høyer,Katia Keglberg Hærvig,Sesilje Bondo Petersen,Lars Rylander,Ina Olmer Specht,Gunnar Toft,Elvira Vaclavik Bräuner +13 more
TL;DR: A systematic literature search for original peer reviewed papers was performed in the databases PubMed and Embase to identify epidemiological studies reporting associations between the outcomes of interest and exposures documented by biochemical analyses of biospecimens including maternal blood or urine, placenta or fat tissue as well as amnion fluid, cord blood or breast milk as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lidwien A.M. Smit,Virissa Lenters,Birgit Bjerre Høyer,Christian H. Lindh,Henning S. Pedersen,Iuliia Liermontova,Bo A. G. Jönsson,Aldert H. Piersma,Jens Peter Bonde,Gunnar Toft,Roel Vermeulen,Dick Heederik +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored associations of prenatal exposures to a large set of environmental chemical contaminants with asthma and eczema in school-age children in Greenland and Ukraine from the INUENDO birth cohort.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anthropometry in 5- to 9-Year-Old Greenlandic and Ukrainian Children in Relation to Prenatal Exposure to Perfluorinated Alkyl Substances

TL;DR: It is indicated that prenatal PFOA and PFOS exposures may be associated with child waist-to-height ratio > 0.5 and Prenatal exposure to PFOS was not associated with overweight in country-specific or pooled analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pregnancy serum concentrations of perfluorinated alkyl substances and offspring behaviour and motor development at age 5-9 years - a prospective study
Birgit Bjerre Høyer,Cecilia Høst Ramlau-Hansen,Carsten Obel,Henning S. Pedersen,Agnieszka Hernik,Victor Ogniev,Bo A. G. Jönsson,Christian H. Lindh,Lars Rylander,Anna Rignell-Hydbom,Jens Peter Bonde,Gunnar Toft +11 more
TL;DR: Prenatal exposure to PFOS and PFOA may have a small to moderate effect on children’s neuro-behavioural development, specifically in terms of hyperactive behaviour.
