Introduction: While a number of studies have examined the effects of prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on childhood obesity, the results reported have been inconsistent and few studies have integrated biological markers. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between prenatal exposure to PFAS and cardiometabolic health parameters at age 12, taking pubertal stage into consideration.

Method: This study included 394 mother-child pairs enrolled in the PELAGIE mother-child cohort (France).

Article Synopsis
  • Adolescents living with HIV often experience stunting and delayed puberty, leading to issues with bone density and muscle function.
  • The VITALITY trial included 842 adolescents from Zambia and Zimbabwe, examining the impact of vitamin D and calcium supplementation on their musculoskeletal health while using various measurement techniques.
  • The study found that lower bone density scores were linked to factors like older age at ART initiation, low physical activity, and poor dietary intake of vitamin D and calcium, suggesting supplementation and exercise could benefit these adolescents.
