Description

Seung-Ah Choe, Eunjung Kim, and Mina Ha look at whether contact with heavy metals and two kinds of man-made chemicals is linked to puberty that starts too early or too late. Their study of Korean youth was published in twenty twenty-five.

The team used health survey data from one thousand four hundred and twenty-four young people. Blood tests measured lead, mercury, and cadmium, and urine tests measured bisphenol A and parts of phthalates. Youth also rated their own stage of growth. About three to four in each hundred had early puberty, and a like share had late puberty. The paper weighs single chemicals and mixes of them, and it adjusts for age, body size, and family income.
