Air pollution is a significant environmental health risk for urban areas and developing countries. Air pollution may contribute to the incidence of cardiopulmonary and metabolic diseases. Evidence also points to the role of air pollution in worsening or developing neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions.

The relationships between exposure to PM and its constituents and thyroid hormone (TH) levels in pregnant women are still uncertain, particularly regarding the impact of mixed exposure to PM constituents on thyroid function during pregnancy. This study aimed to investigate the individual and mixed effect of PM and its constituents on TH levels during pregnancy. Fluorescence and chemiluminescence immunoassays were utilized to measure serum concentrations of free thyroxine (FT4) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in pregnant women participating in the Fujian Birth Cohort Study (FJBCS).
