ABSTRACT
Phthalates have extensive existence in the living environment of human, probably tightly associated with multiple human diseases. The present study aimed to exploratorily investigate the association of urinary phthalate metabolites with osteoarthritis (OA) in American adults by exploiting the data extracted from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003-2014 with levels of eleven urinary phthalate metabolites as exposure. The multivariable logistic regression models were performed after controlling for urinary creatinine, age, gender, race/ethnicity, education level, marital status, smoking, body mass index, physical activity in recreational time, family poverty income ratio, diabetes, hypertension, as well as survey cycle. Compared with those in the lowest quantile, we observed higher prevalence of OA in the maximal quantile of MCOP (OR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.06-2.27) in adjusted model. A one-unit increase in log-transformed phthalate metabolites was significantly associated with higher OA prevalence, including MCOP (OR = 1.13, 95% CI = 1.02-1.26) and MBzP (OR = 1.12, 95% CI = 1.00-1.26) in adjusted model. In subgroup analysis, the positive associations between phthalate metabolites and OA prevalence remained robust both in males and females. In brief, this study first presented positive evidence for the association of urinary level of phthalate metabolites with OA prevalence in American adults. Additional causal research is required to confirm the finding from our analysis and elucidate the potential underlying mechanisms of phthalates exposure on OA.
