Plasma perfluoroalkyl substances and breast cancer risk in Brazilian women: a case–control study

Environmental Health
Background Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental pollutants, and have been detected in human blood. Although PFAS may increase the risk of breast cancer in humans, findings from previous epidemiological studies on the ...

Individual and mixtures of PFAS during pregnancy are associated with maternal cardiometabolic outcomes during pregnancy

Environmental Health
Introduction Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are endocrine-disrupting chemicals and widespread environmental contaminants. PFAS cross the placental barrier and reach the developing fetus with potential impacts on many organ systems.

Associations of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and their mixture with risk of rheumatoid arthritis in the U.S. adult population

Environmental Health
Background Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known environmental contaminants with immunosuppressive properties. Their connection to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a condition influenced by the immune system, is not well studied.
