Serum Vaccine Antibody Concentrations in Adolescents Exposed to Perfluorinated Compounds.

TLDR
Serum concentrations of PFASs and antibodies generally declined from 7 y to 13 y; however, 68 subjects had visited the emergency room and had likely received a vaccination booster, and a total of 202 children showed higher vaccine antibody concentrations at 13 y than at 7 y, so separate analyses were conducted after exclusion of these two subgroups.
Abstract
Background: Postnatal exposure to perfluorinated alkylate substances (PFASs) is associated with lower serum concentrations of specific antibodies against certain childhood vaccines at 7 y. Objectiv...

[Commentary on] Serum vaccine antibody concentrations in children exposed to perfluorinated compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that increased exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) was associated with reduced humoral immune response to routine childhood immunizations in children aged 5 and 7 years.

Sorption of Poly- and Perfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) Relevant to Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF)-Impacted Groundwater by Biochars and Activated Carbon

TL;DR: This study reveals that GAC systems for the treatment of AFFF-impacted sources of water for PFOA and PFOS likely achieve poor removal of many unmonitored PFASs of unknown toxicity.

Multiple imputation for nonresponse in surveys

TL;DR: In this article, a survey of drinking behavior among men of retirement age was conducted and the results showed that the majority of the participants reported that they did not receive any benefits from the Social Security Administration.

Generalized Additive Models

TL;DR: The generalized additive model (GA) as discussed by the authors is a generalization of the generalized linear model, which replaces the linear model with a sum of smooth functions in an iterative procedure called local scoring algorithm.
