Maternal metabolomics linking prenatal exposure to fine particulate matter and birth weight: a cross-sectional analysis of the MADRES cohort
Maternal metabolic pathways involving steroid metabolism, oxidative stress and inflammation, vitamin metabolism, and DNA damage may link prenatal PM<sub>2.5</sub> exposure to lower birth weight, with overweight or obese women potentially more susceptible to these metabolic disruptions.
