“…Reference ranges for noble elements and REEs were also reported for the first time this year in umbilical cord blood and plasma samples from 125 Caucasian pregnant women in Belgrade. 36 In contrast to the Canadian study, Stojsavljevic et al used individual CRMs to validate measurements for each of the 38 elements measured by ICP-MS, using the standard addition method. Whilst the authors looked at age-related trends, conclusions are limited by the small cohort size.…”

“…While estimates of the burden of disease specifically attributable to environmental chemicals in children are limited, there is clear scientific evidence that exposure to environmental chemicals during different developmental stages can result in a number of adverse outcomes, and thus it is clear that reducing exposure could have a significant positive impact on children’s health and well-being [ 10 , 11 ]. In utero exposure to trace elements has been linked with an increased risk for preterm birth [ 12 ] and harmful effects on fetal development [ 13 ]. Metals such as Pb seem to be potent neurotoxins that can affect the cognitive and behavioral development of children, even at low levels of exposure [ 14 ].…”

Exposure to environmental chemicals during developmental stages can result in several adverse outcomes. In this study, the exposure of Portuguese children to Cu, Co, I, Mo, Mn, Ni, As, Sb, Cd, Pb, Sn and Tl was evaluated through the analysis of first morning urine through ICP-MS. Furthermore, we attempted to determine possible exposure predictors. The study sample consisted of 54% girls and 46% boys, with a median age of 10 years; 61% were overweight/obese and were put on a nutritionally oriented diet. For I, half of the population was probably in deficiency status. The median urinary concentrations (μg/L) were Cu 21.9, Mo 54.6, Co 0.76, Mn 2.1, Ni 4.74, As 37.9, Sb 0.09, Cd 0.29, Pb 0.94, Sn 0.45, Tl 0.39 and I 125.5. The region was a significant predictor for Cu, Co, Ni, As and Tl. Children living in an urban area had higher urinary levels, except for Co and Ni. Age was a significant predictor for Cu, I, Mo, Mn, Ni, Sb, Cd and Sn with urinary levels of these elements decreasing with age. No sex-related differences were observed. Diet and weight group were predictors for urinary Cu, Mn, Ni, Sb and As. Significant differences were observed between the diet/weight groups for Cu, Ni, Sb and As, with the healthy diet group presenting higher values.
