Effects of Environmental Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Exposure and Pro-Inflammatory Activity on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in US Adults.

ABSTRACT: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are formed due to natural and anthropogenic activities and known for their potential impact and persistence in the environment. PAHs exposure has been linked to cause adverse health effect including lung cancer, heart conditions and genetic mutations. The understanding of metabolic effects of PAHs exposure is less clear especially in the presence of pro-inflammatory stress like alcoholism or diabetes. The aim of this article is to understand the metabolic effects of PAHs exposure on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) by analyzing the clinical biomarkers data retrieved from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, Center for Disease Control (CDC NHANES) (2015-16). This study has also accessed the interactive impact of PAHs and other proinfla
