Summary

This study found that exposure to di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), a common plasticizer, is associated with altered HDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the general US adult population, suggesting that everyday plastic-related chemical exposure may contribute to cardiovascular risk through lipid metabolism disruption.

Body Systems
Renal

Our study suggests that environmental DEHP exposure may affect serum HDL-C and TG levels in the general adult population. Further research is warranted to confirm these findings and illuminate the underlying mechanisms of DEHP exposure on lipids.
