Early-life exposure to antibiotics and excess body weight in childhood and adolescence: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The association between early-life exposure to antibiotics and overweight/obesity is unclear. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to address this issue.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and grey literature from inception to August 10, 2022, for cohort studies investigating the association between early-life exposure to antibiotics and weight outcomes.

The effect of long-term exposure to nonylphenol at environmentally relevant levels on mouse liver and adipose tissue.

Exposure to the xenoestrogen nonylphenol (NP) during critical windows of development leads to metabolic abnormalities in adult life. However, less is known about NP exposure outside the developmental period on metabolic outcomes. We investigated the effect of prolonged exposure to NP after sexual maturity and at environmentally relevant concentrations below the 'no observable adverse effects level' (0.

Exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals and anthropometric measures of obesity: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are viewed as a major potential link between the environment and obesity development. We did a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine the association between exposure to EDCs and obesity.

Data Sources, Design And Eligibility Criteria: PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were searched from inception to 6 June 2018 for studies primarily addressing the association between exposure to EDCs after the age of 2 years and anthropometric measures of obesity or body fat.
