Article Synopsis
- A study in Ecuador examined the effects of PFASs and pesticides on lung function in 381 adolescents, measuring their exposure to specific substances and assessing lung health over six years.
- Individual substances like PFOA, glyphosate, and ethylene thiourea showed slight associations with lung function improvements, but most other exposures did not have significant effects.
- Overall, the results suggest no strong evidence linking PFASs and pesticides with lung function changes in this population, especially after adjusting for various factors like household income and tobacco exposure.
