Associations between Plasma Folate and Vitamin B12, Blood Lead, and Bone Mineral Density among Adults and Elderly Who Received a Health Examination

Ru-Lan Hsieh et al.

Summary: This study investigated the modifying effect of plasma folate and vitamin B-12 levels on the association between blood lead, cadmium, total urinary arsenic levels, and bone loss. The findings suggest that high blood lead and total urinary arsenic levels are positively correlated with bone loss, while plasma folate and vitamin B-12 levels alone do not show a direct correlation with bone loss. However, in individuals with low plasma folate and vitamin B-12 levels, high blood lead concentrations may increase the risk of bone loss.

Associations of multiple metals with bone mineral density: A population-based study in US adults

Mu-Hong Wei et al.

Summary: This study examined the associations of multiple metals exposure with bone mineral density (BMD) and found that lead (Pb), manganese (Mn), and selenium (Se) were the main contributors driving the overall effects on BMD. Co-exposure to cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), selenium (Se), and zinc (Zn) above their 50th percentiles was associated with reduced BMD.

Estimated IQ points and lifetime earnings lost to early childhood blood lead levels in the United States

Joseph Boyle et al.

Summary: Lead exposure in early childhood can result in lost IQ points and decreased lifetime earnings, with Black infants experiencing significantly higher impacts compared to Hispanic or White infants. The nationwide costs of lead exposure during early childhood are substantial, underscoring the importance of primary prevention efforts.

Maternal Diet, Nutritional Status, and Birth-Related Factors Influencing Offspring's Bone Mineral Density: A Narrative Review of Observational, Cohort, and Randomized Controlled Trials

Daria Masztalerz-Kozubek et al.

Summary: Evidence suggests that bone health may be programmed early in life, with factors such as maternal nutrition during the prenatal period influencing offspring's skeletal development and osteoporosis risk. Maternal vitamin D status, diet in pregnancy, anthropometry, and birth weight appear to impact bone mineral density, though additional factors like subsequent growth may play a role. Further well-designed studies are needed to address the ambiguity of current results.

Blood lead and cadmium levels are negatively associated with bone mineral density in young female adults

Jianfeng Lu et al.

Summary: This study found that both blood lead levels (BLL) and blood cadmium levels (BCL) were independently and negatively associated with lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) among young females, but not among young males.
