Phthalate and Bisphenol Urinary Concentrations, Body Fat Measures, and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Dutch School-Age Children.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations of urinary phthalates and bisphenols at age 6 years old with body fat and cardiovascular risk factors at 6 and 10 years and with the change from 6 to 10 years.

Methods

Among 471 Dutch children, the phthalates and bisphenols urinary concentrations at 6 years and BMI, fat mass index, android fat mass, blood pressure, glucose, insulin, and lipids blood concentrations at 6 and 10 years were measured.

Results

An interquartile range increase in di-n-octyl phthalate (DNOP) metabolites concentrations at 6 years was associated with an increased risk of overweight at 6 and 10 years (odds ratio: 1.44; 95% CI: 1.11-1.87, and 1.43; 95% CI: 1.09-1.86, respectively). Also, higher DNOP metabolites concentrations
