Prenatal Polybrominated Diphenyl Ether Exposure and Body Mass Index in Children Up To 8 Years of Age.

Effect modification by child sex was observed only for the association between maternal BDE-153 concentrations and height z -scores ( p modification = 0.065), with a borderline significant decrease in males (β = –0.32; 95% CI: –0.65, 0.01) but not in females (β = 0.12; 95% CI: –0.20, 0.44) (see Table S7).

However, although the associations in the CHAMACOS Study did not reach statistical significance, point estimates for maternal PBDEs and BMI z -score at age 7 years did suggest a possible weak inverse association.
