Cross-sectional study observes the association between serum brominated flame retardants and bone mineral density in US adults, highlighting potential environmental threats to skeletal health.
Exposure to brominated flame retardants (BFRs) has been widely confirmed to impair the normal functioning of the human body system. However, there is a paucity of study on the effects of serum BFRs on bone mineral density (BMD). This study aims to investigate the relationship between exposure to BFRs and BMD in a nationally representative sample of U.S. adults.
