概括
代谢综合征 (MetS) 的风险随着年龄和较低的社会经济地位而增加. 对重金属 (HM) 和挥发性有机化合物 (VOC) 的联合暴露可能导致MetS,但人口因素似乎更为重要. 需要进一步的研究.
科学领域:
- 环境健康 环境健康
- 毒理学 毒理学 毒理学
- 流行病学 流行病学
背景情况:
- 代谢综合征 (MetS) 影响了三分之一的美国成年人,是慢性疾病的危险因素.
- 重金属 (HM) 和挥发性有机化合物 (VOC) 是常见的环境暴露物,通常以混合物形式出现.
- 联合HM和VOC暴露对MetS风险的影响以前没有被探索.
研究的目的:
- 调查HM和VOC的联合暴露与发展MetS的风险之间的关联.
- 为了确定与MetS相关的特定的HM和VOC.
- 探索人口因素对环境暴露的MetS风险的影响.
主要方法:
- 利用了国家健康和营养检查调查 (2011-2020) 数据库.
- 分析了尿样以检测MH和VOC在MetS患者身上.
- 采用后勤回归和层次集群分析来评估暴露,人口统计和MetS之间的关联.
主要成果:
- 随着年龄的增长和女性的性别显著与MetS相关.
- N-乙-S-(2-乙) -l-氨酸和N-乙-S-(2-乙) -l-氨酸是唯一与MetS有显著联系的HM/VOC.
- 集群分析表明,,,,和VOC与MetS之间存在潜在的联系,但在对共变量进行调整后,这种联系失去了意义. 年龄和贫困水平是MetS的重要预测因素.
结论:

Sampling is a crucial step in analytical chemistry, allowing researchers to collect representative data from a large population. Common sampling methods include random, judgmental, systematic, stratified, and cluster sampling.
Random sampling is a method where each member of the population has an equal chance of being selected for the sample. It involves selecting individuals randomly, often using random number generators or lottery-type methods. For example, when analyzing the properties of a...

Humans continually engage with an environment rich in potentially harmful chemicals. These are introduced to our bodies through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. These chemicals exist in various forms, such as air and environmental pollutants, agricultural chemicals, organic solvents, and heavy metals.
Air pollutants, primarily gases, pose significant threats to respiratory health, leading to conditions like hypoxia, lung cancer, and in extreme cases, death.
