“…Determining the presence of heavy metals via urine collection is a common tool 14–16 and has been utilized for Gd. In patients with onset of specified symptoms of GDD after a GBCA-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the presence of Gd in urine pre–chelation therapy (CT) and its increase post-CT have been considered evidence of Gd toxicity 9 .…”

“…The only biological study of patients with GDD found significantly elevated serum cytokine levels compared with levels in controls but lacked data on the patients' cytokine levels before receiving the symptom-associated GBCA. 13 Determining the presence of heavy metals via urine collection is a common tool [14][15][16] and has been utilized for Gd. In patients with onset of specified symptoms of GDD after a GBCA-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the presence of Gd in urine pre-chelation therapy (CT) and its increase post-CT have been considered evidence of Gd toxicity.…”

“…Most studies agreed upon the shortening effect of arsenic on telomere length among childhood and adolescents. Contrarily, a previous study among Mexican elementary children reported a telomere lengthening where the study population had a mean urinary arsenic concentration of 54.78 μg/L ( 57 ). In fact, the study among elementary Bangladesh children stated the opposite findings; their mean urinary arsenic level (143.8 μg/L) was twice that of the Mexicans′ study ( 42 ).…”

“…Meanwhile, the results among childhood or adolescent populations are inconsistent. For instance, arsenic exposure was significantly and positively associated with telomere elongation in Mexican children ( 57 ). On the other hand, some studies showed no significant association between arsenic and telomere length as in Nepal and Indian populations ( 62 , 63 ).…”

“…The exposure of children from mothers who have been exposed occupationally [ 31 ], for example, can be through the placenta in utero and through breast milk [ 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ]. Dwelling in geographical locations, such as mines and smelters [ 37 , 38 ], industrial sites [ 39 , 40 ], and waste sites [ 41 ], have also been known to result in significant elevations in BLLs in children. Socioeconomic status is another key determinant that increases the likelihood of early-life exposure to Pb [ 40 , 42 , 43 ].…”
