Maternal Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances and Offspring Chromosomal Abnormalities: The Japan Environment and Children’s Study
The study findings suggested a potential association between maternal exposure to PFAS, particularly PFOS, and chromosomal abnormalities in offspring. However, the results should be interpreted cautiously, because selection bias arising from the recruitment of women in early pregnancy may explain the associations. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP13617.
