Exposure to specific polyfluoroalkyl chemicals is associated with cardiovascular disease in US adults: a population-based study
Our study showed that serum PFDE, MPAH, and PFUA levels were positively correlated with CVD. PUFA was found to interact with gender and race in relation to CVD. A general positive correlation exists between mixed exposure to PFCs and CVD, with PFDO being the most contributory PFC. Our study provided important evidence for probing the impact of PFCs on CVD and laid a foundation for further mechanism research.
