摘要
Background: Experimental evidence demonstrates that exposure to bisphenol A (BPA), and the recently intro-duced alternatives bisphenol S (BPS) and bisphenol F (BPF) alter normal neurodevelopment. More research is needed to evaluate the associations between exposure to individual BPA alternatives and neurodevelopmental outcomes in humans. Objective: The present study aimed at examining the individual associations between prenatal BPA , BPS and BPF exposure and cognitive outcomes in children at age 7 years. Method: Women were enrolled in the Swedish Environmental Longitudinal Mother and Child, Asthma and Al-lergy (SELMA) study, at gestational median week 10.0, and their children were examined for cognitive function at 7 years of age (N = 803). Maternal urinary BPA , BPS, and BPF concentrations were measured at enrollment and children's cognitive function at the age of 7 years was measured using the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children IV (WISC-IV). Results: A l l three bisphenols were detected in over 90% of the women, where BPA had the highest geometric mean concentrations (1.55 ng/mL), followed by BPF (0.16 ng/mL) and BPS (0.07 ng/mL). Prenatal BPF exposure was associated with decreased f ull scale IQ (beta =-1.96, 95%CI;-3.12;-0.80), as we l l as with a decrease in all four sub scales covering verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memor y and processing speed. This association corresponded to a 1.6-point lower IQ score for an inter-quartile-range (IQR) change in prenatal BPF exposure (IQR = 0.054-0.350 ng/mL). In sex-stratified analyses, significant associations with f u l l scale IQ were found for boys (beta = - 2.86, 95%CI;-4.54;-1.18), while the associations for girls did not reach significance (beta =-1.38, 95%CI;-2.97; 0.22). No significant associations between BPA nor BPS and cognition were found. Discussion: Prenatal exposure to BPF was significantly associated with children?s cognitive function at 7 years. Since BPF is replacing BPA in numerous consumer products globally, this finding urgently call for further studies.
