Age-specific associations between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances exposure and metabolic syndrome: a cross-sectional study
Our study highlighted the complex relationships between PFAS exposure and the risks of MetS and its components across different age groups. Co-exposure to PFAS was particularly linked to dyslipidemia in young and middle-aged adults. Prospective studies are needed for better comprehension of the causative impact of PFAS on the risks of MetS.
