Overview

Cross-sectional analysis showed significant associations between metal exposure and pregnancy parameters, suggesting urgent public health strategies.

Key Points

  • Higher levels of iron, zinc, and copper were found in pregnant women, with iron being particularly elevated in blood samples.
  • Lead and chromium ranked highest among heavy metals, indicating a potential risk to maternal health during pregnancy.
  • Significant correlations were observed between metal exposure and clinical parameters such as hematocrit and blood glucose levels.
  • The findings imply that exposure to trace elements and heavy metals during pregnancy necessitates preventive public health measures.
