Association of urinary phthalate metabolites with all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality among adults with diabetes mellitus: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005–2014

ABSTRACT:

Background

The study regarding phthalate metabolites and mortality among diabetes mellitus (DM) is limited. We aimed to examine the association of urinary phthalate metabolites with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality among adults with DM.

Methods

This study included 8,931 adults from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005–2006 to 2013–2014. Mortality data were linked to National Death Index public access files through December 31, 2015. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidences (CIs) for mortality.

Results

We identified 1,603 adults with DM [mean ± SE age, 47.08 ± 0.30 years; 50.5% (833) were men]. Mono-(carboxynonyl) phthalate (MCNP), mono-2-ethyl-5-carboxypentyl
