Damaskini Valvi et al.
Epidemiology (Cambridge, Mass.), 24(6), 791-799 (2013-09-17)
Increasing experimental evidence suggests that prenatal bisphenol A (BPA) exposure induces offspring weight gain, but these effects remain largely unexplored in humans. We examined the effects of prenatal BPA exposure on postnatal growth and obesity. BPA concentrations were measured in
Maribel Casas et al.
Environment international, 56, 10-18 (2013-04-02)
Bisphenol A (BPA) exposure during early life may have endocrine-disrupting effects, but the dietary and sociodemographic predictors of BPA exposure during pregnancy and childhood remain unclear. Our aim was to evaluate the correlations between, and sociodemographic and dietary predictors of

Fertility and sterility, 100(1), 162-169 (2013-04-13)
To explore the relation between bisphenol A and 14 phthalate metabolites and endometriosis. Matched cohort design. Fourteen clinical centers. The operative cohort comprised 495 women undergoing laparoscopy/laparotomy, whereas the population cohort comprised 131 women matched on age and residence. None.
R E FitzGerald et al.
Toxicology letters, 230(2), 368-374 (2014-05-17)
Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the most widely used and extensively studied chemicals. Numerous studies have reported in vitro effects or animal adverse findings at BPA doses lower than the no observed adverse effect levels (NOAELs) established in regulatory
Amy L Heffernan et al.
Environment international, 68, 139-143 (2014-04-15)
Used frequently in food contact materials, bisphenol A (BPA) has been studied extensively in recent years, and ubiquitous exposure in the general population has been demonstrated worldwide. Characterizing within- and between-individual variability of BPA concentrations is important for characterizing exposure
