Association between organophosphate flame retardant exposure and lipid metabolism: Data from the 2013–2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
Organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) are emerging environmental pollutants that can be detected in water, dust, and biological organisms. Certain OPFRs can disrupt lipid metabolism in animal models and cell lines. However, the effects of OPFRs on human lipid metabolism remain unclear. We included 1,580 participants (≥20 years) from the 2013–2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to explore the relationship between OPFR…
Levels of organophosphate flame retardants and their metabolites among 391 volunteers in Taiwan: Difference between adults and children
Background Organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) are ubiquitous in the environment. The compositions and concentrations of different OPFRs metabolites vary in different environments depending on different human activities. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the exposure of different age groups to OPFRs in Taiwan. Methods Volunteers provided urine samples and responded to questionnaires including demographic factors, underlying …
Hemodialysis Treatment for Patients with Lithium Poisoning
The analytical results revealed zero mortality rate and low hemodialysis rate (1.9%). Compared with patients without hemodialysis, patients receiving hemodialysis suffered severer lithium-associated complications and needed a more intensive care unit admission and longer hospital stay
Blood Aluminum Levels in Patients with Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis
Background. This retrospective observational study attempted to examine the prevalence of abnormal blood aluminum levels in dialysis patients, and to explore the association of pathogenic factors, such as demographic, clinical, laboratory as well as the use of phosphate binding drugs, drugs for secondary hyperparathyroidism and erythropoiesis-stimulating drugs with the blood aluminum levels. Methods. The study included 1175 patients (874 hemodial…
The Risk Factors of Blood Cadmium Elevation in Chronic Kidney Disease
Low-level cadmium exposure has adverse effects on chronic kidney disease (CKD); however, the risk factors for elevated blood cadmium levels (BCLs) have not been studied in CKD. We conducted a cross-sectional investigation in 200 CKD patients and stratified them by the tertiles of BCL to compare their demographic, environmental, and biochemical data. The factors associated with BCL were identified, and their effects were examined in subgroups. In …
