Prepubertal Serum Concentrations of Organochlorine Pesticides and Age at Sexual Maturity in Russian Boys.
BACKGROUND Few human studies have evaluated the impact of childhood exposure to organochlorine pesticides (OCP) on pubertal development. OBJECTIVE We evaluated associations of serum OCP concentrations [hexachlorobenzene (HCB), β-hexachlorocyclohexane (βHCH), and p,p-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (p,p´-DDE)] with age at attainment of sexual maturity among boys. METHODS From 2003 through 2...
متن کاملSerum Concentrations of Organochlorine Pesticides and Growth among Russian Boys
BACKGROUND Limited human data suggest an association of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) with adverse effects on children's growth. OBJECTIVE We evaluated the associations of OCPs with longitudinally assessed growth among peripubertal boys from a Russian cohort with high environmental OCP levels. METHODS A cohort of 499 boys enrolled in the Russian Children's Study between 2003 and 2005 at ...
متن کاملPredictors of Serum Chlorinated Pesticide Concentrations among Prepubertal Russian Boys
BACKGROUND Few studies have evaluated predictors of childhood exposure to organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), a class of lipophilic persistent chemicals. OBJECTIVES Our goal was to identify predictors of serum OCP concentrations-hexachlorobenzene (HCB), β-hexachlorocyclohexane (β-HCH), and p,p-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (p,p´-DDE)-among boys in Chapaevsk, Russia. METHODS Between 2003 an...
متن کاملAssociation between chlorinated pesticides in the serum of prepubertal Russian boys and longitudinal biomarkers of metabolic function.
Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) have been linked to adult metabolic disorders; however, few studies have examined these associations in childhood. We prospectively evaluated the associations of baseline serum OCPs (hexachlorobenzene, β-hexachlorocyclohexane, and p,p'-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene) in Russian boys with subsequent repeated measurements of serum glucose, insulin, lipids, lepti...
متن کاملOrganochlorine Pesticides Concentrations in Maternal Serum and Their Effects on Umbilical Cord Serum Pesticides Concentrations, Neonatal Birth Weight and Gestational Age
Recently, much attention has been focused on t h e e ffe c t s of pes ticides on human health. This work was conducted to s tudy the effects of high maternal serum organochlorine pes ticides levels on umbilical cord serum pes ticides levels , neonatal birth weight and ges tational age. The present s tudy was carried out on 123 n ormal pregnant women from El-Kasr El-Eini Hospital and their newbo...
