Abstract in brief
- The study investigates the link between phthalate exposure, specifically Mono (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), Mono benzyl phthalate (MBzP), and Mono butyl phthalate (MBP), and depressive symptoms in the elderly.
- Using a sample of 989 elderly participants, researchers measured phthalate levels in urine and inflammatory factors in blood, finding a positive association between high phthalate levels and increased depressive symptoms.
- Chronic inflammation was identified as a partial mediator in the relationship between MEHP exposure and depressive symptoms, suggesting that inflammation may play a role in how phthalates contribute to depression among older adults.
