Expert Panels Weigh Bisphenol-A Risks

Exaggerated anticipatory anxiety is common in social anxiety disorder (SAD). Neuroimaging studies have revealed altered neural activity in response to social stimuli in SAD, but fewer studies have examined neural activity during anticipation of feared social stimuli in SAD. The current study examined the time course and magnitude of activity in threat processing brain regions during speech anticipation in socially anxious individuals and healthy controls (HC). Method Participants (SAD n = 58; HC n = 16) underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during which they completed a 90s control anticipation task and 90s speech anticipation task.

“…After the recent evaluation by the two US government-convened panels and the controversy between the FDA and its own Science Board, the question of the adverse effect of exposure to BPA on human health has raised substantial concern among the public because of widespread presence of BPA in the environment and in consumer products such as baby bottles and food and water containers (Kuehn, 2007; The number in each category may not match the total number due to missing values.…”

“…Bisphenol-A also interferes with the function of androgen receptors and the production of male sex hormones (7,8,19). However, human studies demonstrating BPA's endocrinedisrupting effects have been sparse (19,20). We recently reported a high risk of male sexual dysfunction associated with exposure to BPA (21,22), providing the first piece of evidence of BPA's endocrine-disruptive effect in human populations.…”
