Pyrethroid Exposure in Premature Newborns: A Pilot Study on Materno–Fetal Transmission and Early Postnatal Evolution
This pilot study suggested prenatal exposure to pyrethroids in premature newborns, highlighting the need to monitor pesticide exposure from birth, particularly in vulnerable populations. This phenomenon, described as "exposure capital at birth," occurs before any environmental contact. This is followed by uninterrupted environmental exposure during the first days of life.
