Aquatic ecosystems are primary repositories for microplastics (MPs), which pose significant risks to aquatic organisms. This study addresses the gap in understanding the effects of MPs pollution by analyzing 3,757 biological endpoints from 85 laboratory studies. Overall, our results indicate that MPs exposure significantly inhibits fish growth, survival, and reproductive ability, and increases oxidative damage, specifically, MPs exposure leads to elevated levels of malondialdehyde.
