Background: Puberty is a life milestone that marks the transition from childhood to adulthood. An ambispective Chongqing Pubertal Timing (CQPT) cohort was started in 2014 to understand pubertal timing and identify environmental risk factors. Methods: A total of 1429 children and adolescents were recruited and have been followed up once every 6 months for 8 years in a district of Chongqing, China. Data were collected via questionnaires for social and family environment, health conditions, gestational and maternal information, and in-person physical examinations by trained medical school graduate students in follow-ups. Environmental exposures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), neonicotinoids, and heavy metals in urine samples were measured at different time points. Results: The mean ages at pubertal onset were 10.20 for thelarche, 11.62 for pubic hair development, and 11.84 for menarche in girls, and 11.16 for genital development, 11.66 for testicular enlargement, and 12.71 for first spermatorrhea in boys. Four OH-PAHs were associated with delayed timing of menarche, thelarche, pubic hair, and axillary hair development in girls, and thiacloprid was found to potentially impact genital stages in boys and axillary hair development in girls. Conclusions: We built a cohort to provide evidence of regional pubertal timing of boys and girls and the significant environmental factors. Further health outcomes, especially mental health and women’s health and its long-term health implications, will be followed.

Background: this study was performed under the umbrella of the Health Extended Alliance for Innovative Therapies, Advanced Lab Research, and Integrated Approaches of Precision Medicine (HEAL ITALIA) partnership and funded under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, Mission 4 Component 2 Investment 1.3, and by the European Union. Objectives: the overall objective of the HEAL project is to identify innovative and effective therapeutic approaches to reduce disease burden. The present research falls within Spoke 7: Prevention Strategies: Integrated and gender medicine approaches for prevention strategies based on environmental, lifestyle, and clinical biometric data. Obesity represents a primary risk factor worldwide for the onset of numerous life-threatening diseases, including metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurological diseases. Environmental and gender-related factors influence obesity development. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of those agents on different organs of the human body are not fully understood yet. Methods: here, we present a study protocol aimed at shedding light on (i) the complex interplays among adipose tissue, brain and gut in obesity, and (ii) the effects of specific dietary components and environmental metabolism-disrupting compounds on those interactions. To this purpose, we combined ex vivo, in vitro, and in vivo approaches to gain additional knowledge about the molecular mechanisms underlying connections between organs. Conclusions: the data provided by this study will contribute to defining new targets for therapeutic and/or preventive interventions, thereby allowing more personalized approaches to nutrition.
