Associations of dichlorophenol with metabolic syndrome based on multivariate-adjusted logistic regression: A U.S. nationwide population-based study 2003-2016
Abstract:Background
Para-dichlorobenzene (p-DCB) exposure associated with oxidative stress has indeed raised public concerns. However, whether p-DCB is linked with metabolic syndrome (MetS) remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the associations of exposure to p-DCB with MetS prevalence.
Methods
We included 10,428 participants (5,084 men and 5,344 women) adults (aged ≥ 20 years) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2003–2016). The cases of MetS were diagnosed by NCEP/ATPIII. Logistic regre… Show more
