What is Association between perfluoroalkyl substances exposure and the prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in the different sexes: a study from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005–2018 about?

There is evidence that perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have effects on liver toxicity, and the effects may exhibit sex differences. Our study aims to explore the association between exposure to four PFASs (perfluorooctanoic acid, PFOA; perfluorooctane sulfonate, PFOS; perfluorohexane sulfonate, PFHxS; and perfluorononanoate, PFNA) and the risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in adults ≥ 20 years old in the US population. The data were based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2018. We used Poisson regression to explore the association between the four PFASs and NAFLD. We included 3464 participants; of these, 1200 (34.64%) individuals were defined as having NAFLD, and the prevalence of NAFLD was 39.52% in men and 30.40% in women. After Poisson regression, among the premenopausal and postmenopausal and total women, PFOA had a significantly positive association with NAFLD (p < 0.05). After principal component analysis, the "composite PFAS" was associated with NAFLD in postmenopausal and total women, and the RRs (95% CIs) were 1.306 (1.075, 1.586) and 1.161 (1.007, 1.339), respectively. In adults, we found that PFASs were associated with
