Article Synopsis
- The study explores the interactions between chlorinated organophosphorus flame retardants (Cl-OPFRs) and microplastics (MPs) in landfill soils, highlighting their effects on adsorption, bioaccessibility, and health risks.
- Results indicate that humus soil has a greater capacity for Cl-OPFR adsorption compared to subsoil, with MPs enhancing the adsorption of certain Cl-OPFRs while inhibiting others.
- The presence of MPs increases the bioaccessibility and potential health risks of Cl-OPFRs, emphasizing the need for better landfill risk management practices.
Background: Little is known about the association between weight changes and adverse health outcomes among Chinese adults.
Methods: A total of 1715 Chinese adults, 45-60 years of age, have been recruited to participate in the Hefei Nutrition and Health Study started in 2012. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the association of weight changes since age 20 (loss ≥5.
Supplementation with folic acid (FA) was proven to prevent neural tube defects (NTDs) and was recommended worldwide before and during early pregnancy. However, much less is known regarding the role of FA after the 12th gestational week (GW). This study aimed to investigate the related effects of continued FA supplementation after the first trimester of pregnancy on fetal growth.

This study aimed to investigate the associations between dietary patterns and the risk of NAFLD in a middle-aged Chinese population. The Study subjects were 999 Chinese adults aged 45-60 years in the Anhui province who participated in the Hefei Nutrition and Health Study.
