TLDR
The results showed that people at high risk for CVD showed a higher level of contamination by POPs as compared to other studies done in cohorts of Western people at no special risk of CVD, and educational level seems to be a relevant determinant for POPs burden.About:

TL;DR: Blood cord levels of twenty organochlorine pesticides, eighteen polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), eight bromodiphenyl ethers (BDEs), and sixteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were quantified using the method of gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry to understand the role of POPs on fetal development.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the vicinity of both territories is not a major determinant of each other's contamination, and the levels of iron, selenium, zinc, arsenic, cadmium, strontium, and specially lead were significantly higher in Moroccans than in Canarians.

TL;DR: There were striking dose-response relations between serum concentrations of six selected POPs and the prevalence of diabetes, and the strong graded association could offer a compelling challenge to future epidemiologic and toxicological research.
