Abstract Environmental exposure to heavy metals, such as lead (Pb) and nickel (Ni), has been implicated in the development of chronic metabolic diseases, including diabetes mellitus (DM). This cross-sectional study aimed evaluate detection PB Ni ground water by ICP-OES urine samples participants ICP-MS found association between Pb risk factors for DM disorders participants. A total 2688 were recruited from district Sargodha Punjab, Pakistan. Participants categorized into Pb-exposed Ni-exposed groups, further stratified diabetic non-diabetic subgroups. In groundwater, Except pH, levels dissolved solids, electrical conductivity, hardness, turbidity exceeded guidelines set World Health Organization (WHO) concentrations groundwater WHO area. While participants, measured samples, various biomarkers related DM, lipid profile, inflammation, oxidative stress, liver function, kidney function assessed. The results showed significantly higher both individuals compared healthy had than non-diabetics, similarly, diabetics non-diabetics.

The main objective of our study is to explore the associations between combined exposure urinary heavy metals and high remnant cholesterol (HRC), a known cardiovascular risk factor. Utilizing data from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999 2018, we conducted cross-sectional analysis 5690 participants, assessing concentrations ten metals. Ten in urine were measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Fasting residual ≥0.8 mmol/L was defined as HRC (using blood samples). Statistical analyses included weighted multivariable logistic regression, quantile sum (WQS) g-computation (qgcomp), Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) evaluate metal with HRC. Stratified based on individual characteristics also conducted. Multivariable found that four (OR Q4 vs. Q1: 1.33, 95% CI: 1.01–1.75 for barium (Ba); OR 1.50, 1.16–1.94 cadmium (Cd); 1.52, 1.15–2.01 mercury (Hg); 1.35, 1.06–1.73 lead (Pb)) positively correlated elevated after adjusting covariates. In addition, all three mixed models, including WQS (OR: 1.25; 1.07–1.46), qgcomp 1.17; 1.03–1.34), BKMR, consistently showed significant positive correlation co-exposure mixtures HRC, Ba Cd being contributors within mixture. These more pronounced younger adults (20 59 years), males, those higher body index status (≥25 kg/m2). Our findings reveal relationship mixture among US adults, major mixture’s overall effect.

Abstract Background Previous studies on the associations of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) heavy metals with lipid profiles among adolescents have been scarce. We sought to investigate PFASs blood levels in a representative sample Korean adolescents. Methods Data from National Environmental Health Survey (2018–2020) were used. Concentrations [perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfonic (PFOS), perfluorohexane acid, perfluorononanoic (PFNA), perfluorodecanoic (PFDeA)], lead, mercury measured serum, whole blood, urine samples, respectively. Linear regression, Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR), k-means clustering analyses employed evaluate between pollutants levels. Results In linear analyses, PFOA associated higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels; PFOS total (TC) PFNA TC, LDL-C, non-high-density (non-HDL-C) PFDeA non-HDL-C, high-density TC non-HDL-C The BKMR analysis revealed that PFAS metal mixture was LDL-C (1.8% increase at 75th percentile all concentrations compared their median values, 95% credible interval: 0.5, 3.1), primarily driven by effect PFDeA. Compared individuals low pollutant exposure cluster (geometric mean PFOA, PFOS, PFHxS, PFNA, PFDeA, 2.7 μg/L, 6.2 1.6 0.7 0.4 0.8 μg/dL, 0.3 respectively), those high (5.1 10.7 3.7 1.3 0.6 0.9 respectively) demonstrated (2.5% confidence 0.1, 5.0) analysis. Conclusion Due limitations this study, such as its cross-sectional design, these results should be interpreted cautiously confirmed future before drawing implications for public health strategies aimed promoting during adolescence later life.
