Associations of prenatal exposure to bisphenols with infant anthropometry: A prospective cohort study.

Background: Bisphenols (BPs) have been shown to exhibit developmental toxicities. Epidemiological evidence on prenatal BPs exposure and infant growth primarily confined scopes to specific BPs and birth outcomes, with few studies focusing on infant growth and reporting inconsistent findings. The joint effect of prenatal exposure to BPs mixture on infant growth was rarely studied.

Prenatal exposures to isoflavones and neurobehavioral development in children at 2 and 4 years of age: A birth cohort study.

Isoflavones (ISOs) are plant-derived estrogen-like compounds, which were already proved with cognition benefits on elderly people. However, studies assessing the associations between prenatal ISOs exposure and children's neurodevelopment are scarce. This study aimed to examine the associations between maternal urinary ISOs concentrations, including genistein (GEN), daidzein (DAD), glycitein (GLY), and metabolite equol (EQU), and children's neurodevelopment, based on a Chinese cohort study.

The associations between concentrations of gestational bisphenol analogues and thyroid related hormones in cord blood: A prospective cohort study.

Animal studies indicated that Bisphenol analogues (BPs) exhibited potential thyroid toxicity. However, little is known of the associations between maternal BPs exposure and offspring's thyroid related hormones in humans. On the basis of Shanghai-Minhang Birth Cohort study, we analyzed BPs in maternal urine collected at the third trimester of pregnancy.
