It has been suggested that prenatal exposure to some organochlorine compounds (OCs)
may adversely affect thyroid function and may, therefore, impair neurodevelopment. The …

OBJECTIVE: Thyroid hormones play an important role in human brain development, and
some organochlorine compounds (OCs) act as thyroid disruptors. The objective of the …

Aims: To assess the association between prenatal exposure to organochlorine compounds
and thyroid status in newborns from an area with high levels of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) …

In this systematic review, the association between prenatal exposure to organochlorine
pesticides (OCPs) and neonatal thyroid hormone levels was studied. A systematic search of …

Background Thyroid hormones are important regulators of brain development. During critical
periods of development, even transient disorders in thyroid hormone availability may lead to …

Objective: Several studies have shown that some organochlorine compounds (OCs) can
interfere with the thyroid system. As thyroid hormones (THs) are essential for normal brain …

INTRODUCTION: Several epidemiological studies have reported that some organochlorine
compounds (OCs), such as polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs) and 1, 1-dichloro-2, 2-bis (4 …

We have investigated the effects of prenatal exposure to dioxin-like compounds (PCDDs,
PCDFs and dioxin-like PCBs), PCBs and organochlorine pesticides (DDT, HCH, chlordane …

Objective To investigate the association between prenatal exposure to organochlorine
pesticides (OCPs) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels in male newborns. Methods …

Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) had been widely used in agriculture and disease
prevention from the 1940s–1960s. Currently, OCPs are raising global concerns due to their …
