BACKGROUND
Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has been linked with adverse pregnancy events. However, the effects of PM2.5 on pregnant women with pulmonary hypertension (PH) remain poorly understood.
METHODS
We conducted a retrospective multicenter study of pregnant women with PH hospitalized at 24 tertiary hospitals in...

A monotonic increasing association of the metal mixture with both BWZ and LGA, with the trend significant at lower-to-moderate concentrations is shown, whereas no significant associations were observed for SGA.

The findings provide evidence linking prenatal metal exposure to newborn birth size and suggest that cord blood metabolic profiles may offer exploratory mechanistic clues for understanding metal-related fetal growth patterns.

Early-pregnancy PFAS exposure was associated with impaired fetal growth and altered amino acid and lipid metabolism may underlie these associations, and metabolomics data suggested several exploratory candidate intermediate metabolite features that may be involved in the associations.

It is suggested that prenatal PFAS exposure is associated with reduced BW-z, particularly among female infants, and that altered fasting glucose may represent one possible, but not primary, pathway linking selected PFAS to fetal growth.
