Median PFAS serum levels did not differ significantly between those who did and did not take the survey for PFNA (p=0.1526), PFOA (p=0.4913), and PFHxS (p=0.6973), but for PFOS the median serum levels were lower among those who took the health survey and this difference was borderline significant (7.25 μg/L sd 4.50, and 8.37 μg/L sd 5.57, respectively p=0.0597).
