Abstract

Highlights: [•] A cross-sectional study was performed on 815 children from 8years of NHANES data. [•] PFOA and PFOS were the exposures examined; dyslipidemia was the outcome variable. [•] PFOA and PFOS were positively associated with high total cholesterol and LDL-C. [•] Even low PFAS levels were associated with elevated serum lipid levels in children. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
