Controlling the familywise error rate when performing multiple comparisons in a linear latent variable model

Brice Ozenne, Esben Budtz-Jorgensen, Sebastian Elgaard Ebert

Summary: This article introduces the use of the max-test procedure in latent variable models for multiple testing. The effectiveness of the procedure for Wald and Score tests in LVMs is evaluated through simulation studies. The procedure is then applied to quantify the neuroinflammatory response to mild traumatic brain injury in multiple brain regions.

Directionality of the Association Between Epilepsy and Depression A Nationwide Register-Based Cohort Study

Eva Bolling-Ladegaard, Julie Werenberg Dreier, Lars Vedel Kessing, Esben Budtz-Jorgensen, Kasper Lolk, Jakob Christensen

Summary: This study investigates the magnitude and long-term association between epilepsy and depression, comparing with the risks of the 2 disorders after another chronic medical illness (asthma). Results show a long-term bidirectional relationship between depression and epilepsy, with higher risk estimates than for epilepsy or depression after asthma.

Association Between Prenatal and Early Postnatal Exposure to Perfluoroalkyl Substances and IQ Score in 7-Year-Old Children From the Odense Child Cohort

Iben Have Beck, Niels Bilenberg, Soeren Moeller, Flemming Nielsen, Philippe Grandjean, Frederik Damsgaard Hojsager, Thorhallur Ingi Halldorsson, Christel Nielsen, Tina Kold Jensen

Summary: The study found that prenatal and early postnatal exposure to perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) may affect intelligence quotient (IQ), especially higher concentrations of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) were associated with lower IQ scores.

Consideration of pathways for immunotoxicity of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)

Veronika Ehrlich, Wieneke Bil, Rob Vandebriel, Berit Granum, Mirjam Luijten, Birgitte Lindeman, Philippe Grandjean, Andreas-Marius Kaiser, Ingrid Hauzenberger, Christina Hartmann, Claudia Gundacker, Maria Uhl

Summary: PFAS are a public health concern due to their persistent occurrence and adverse effects on the immune system. The mechanisms underlying the impact on the immune system are not fully understood. Various PFAS affect multiple aspects of the immune system, with the developing immune system being particularly vulnerable to toxic insults.

Benchmark dose calculations for PFAS exposure based on two data sets on immunotoxic effects

Esben Budtz-Jorgensen, Philippe Grandjean

Summary: By analyzing two data sets using the BMD method, the study found that using different dose-response models can lead to more accurate results. The toxicity of different PFAS was compared, confirming differences in toxicity among them. It was concluded that EFSA's proposed tolerable exposure limit is too high, while the EPA's proposal is more in line with the research results.

Summary: This study found that early-life exposure to ambient air pollution increases the risk of childhood asthma.

Weight loss relapse associated with exposure to perfluoroalkylate substances

Philippe Grandjean, Alessandra Meddis, Flemming Nielsen, Anders Sjodin, Mads F. F. Hjorth, Arne Astrup, Esben Budtz-Jorgensen

Summary: The objective of this study was to test the association between perfluorinated alkylate substance (PFAS) exposures and body weight increases in a dietary intervention study. The results showed that elevated plasma concentrations of PFOA and PFHxS were significantly associated with increased weight gain, exceeding the effects of different diet groups. The findings suggest that obesogenic PFASs may contribute to the obesity pandemic.

Prenatal and early postnatal exposure to perfluoroalkyl substances and bone mineral content and density in the Odense Child Cohort

Summary: This study found that prenatal and early postnatal exposure to perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is associated with lower bone mineral density (BMD) at age 7. The association is stronger for exposure at 18 months than prenatal exposure.

Predictors of serum- per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) concentrations among infants in Guinea-Bissau, West Africa

Marzanna Marianna Sorensen, Ane Baerent Fisker, Christine Dalgard, Kristoffer Jarlov Jensen, Flemming Nielsen, Christine Stabell Benn, Philippe Grandjean, Amalie Timmermann

Summary: The aim of this study was to identify predictors of infant serum-PFAS concentrations. The study found that the location of residence was the most important determinant of serum-PFAS concentrations among Guinea-Bissau infants, indicating a potential role of diet as affected by the global spread of PFAS, but further research is needed to explore reasons for the regional differences in PFAS exposure.

Paired Liver:Plasma PFAS Concentration Ratios from Adolescents in the Teen-LABS Study and Derivation of Empirical and Mass Balance Models to Predict and Explain Liver PFAS Accumulation

Walker, Damaskini Valvi, Rohit Kohli, Thomas Inge, Justin Ryder, Todd Jenkins, Stephanie Sisley, Stavra Xanthakos, Sarah Rock, Michele A. La Merrill, David Conti, Rob Mcconnell, Lida Chatzi

Summary: Animal studies have suggested that the liver is a major site for the accumulation and toxicity of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), but these findings have not been replicated in human populations. In this study, concentrations of seven PFAS were measured in matched liver and plasma samples from 64 adolescents undergoing bariatric surgery. A multilinear regression model based on toxicokinetic descriptors perfectly explained the liver:plasma concentration ratios. Among the PFAS congeners examined, perfluoroheptanoic acid (PFHpA) had a considerably higher liver:plasma concentration ratio. Mechanistic modeling suggested that complex kinetic transport processes contribute to the high liver:plasma concentration ratio of PFHpA. This study demonstrates the potential of combining biomonitoring data with mechanistic modeling to understand the internal distribution and specific target organ toxicity of PFAS in humans.

Dose dependence of prenatal fluoride exposure associations with cognitive performance at school age in three prospective studies

Summary: By merging data from three birth cohort studies, the study found a statistically significant association between urine-fluoride concentrations and IQ, suggesting the need for protection against fluoride toxicity in pregnant women and children.

COVID-19 Infection despite Previous Vaccination in Cancer Patients and Healthcare Workers: Results from a French Prospective Multicenter Cohort (PAPESCO-19)

Summary: In two cohorts of vaccinated cancer patients and healthcare workers, 5% experienced a breakthrough COVID-19 infection. These infections were more common among younger cancer patients with certain types of cancers and those receiving chemotherapy or targeted therapy. The infections occurred either shortly after vaccination or several months after completing the vaccination course. However, the COVID-19 cases in vaccinated individuals were not severe.

Evaluation of thin-slice abdominal DECT using deep-learning image reconstruction in 74 keV virtual monoenergetic images: an image quality comparison

Jack J. J. Xu, Lars Loenn, Esben Budtz-Jorgensen, Samir Jawad, Peter S. S. Ulriksen, Kristoffer L. L. Hansen

Summary: This study compared the noise, contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and image quality of deep-learning image reconstruction (DLIR) vs. adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASIR-V) in gray scale 74 keV virtual monoenergetic (VM) abdominal dual-energy CT (DECT) with different slice thicknesses. The results showed that DLIR significantly reduced image noise, increased CNR and SNR, and improved image quality, especially in 0.625 mm slice images, compared to ASIR-V.
