Article Synopsis
- Endocrine disruptors (ED) are widespread pollutants linked to chronic diseases, particularly affecting vulnerable groups like infants and children, highlighting a need for better information for parents.
- A study conducted at Lyon Mother and Child Hospital surveyed 746 individuals, including 444 pediatric healthcare professionals and 302 parents, revealing that while most had heard of ED, only 10% of parents and 5% of professionals felt well-informed about them.
- The findings showed that professionals generally had better knowledge than parents (73% vs. 60%), but only a small percentage had engaged with scientific literature or training on EDs, indicating the necessity for specific educational initiatives.
