Association between volatile organic compounds in urine and dyslipidemia: findings based on analysis of NHANES data

Simultaneous exposure to multiple UMVOCs is positively and significantly linked to the prevalence of dyslipidemia, with inflammation partially mediating this relationship. Our findings suggest that prolonged or high-level exposure to UMVOCs may contribute to dyslipidemia through inflammatory pathways, underscoring the potential metabolic health risks posed by environmental pollutants.
