Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how prenatal exposure to heavy metals (Lead, arsenic, cadmium, selenium) relates to adverse pregnancy outcomes, particularly focusing on differences between low-risk and high-risk groups of women with varying preterm birth histories.
  • 404 women participated, and their blood metal levels were measured, showing significant differences in concentration between low-risk and high-risk groups, with low-risk having higher levels of these metals.
  • Despite the findings of elevated metal levels, the study found no significant correlation between these metals and negative pregnancy outcomes, indicating a need for more research to explore the effects of these metals on pregnancy.
