| Abstract | Polyfluoroalkyl and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent organic pollutants and exposure have been suggested with the risk of developing preeclampsia. Yet, evidence on the associations of PFAS with preeclampsia is still conflicting. Thus, the current study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the epidemiological evidence linking maternal PFAS exposure to preeclampsia. This research methodology involved searching three electronic databases for epidemiological studies, and then conducting a meta-analysis using a random-effects model to analyse the heterogeneity between the studies. The quality and strength of evidence for each exposure-outcome pair was also evaluated, as well as the risk of bias. The search identified 10 potentially eligible studies related to maternal PFAS blood level with preeclampsia, which 7 were ultimately selected. Meta-analysis demonstrated evidence of association between combined PFAS compounds in pregnant mother with preeclampsia with zero heterogeneity (I2=0.0%, Q= 3.09, df= 6, p=0.798). Preeclampsia was found to have moderate association with maternal perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) exposure (Test for overall effect: z=2.2, p=0.03; Test for heterogeneity: I2=0.0%, Q= 3.49, df= 6, p=0.745) as well as maternal perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) exposure (Test for overall effect: z=2.5, p=0.01; Test for heterogeneity: I2=0.0%, Q= 3.70, df= 6, p=0.718). This study showed significant associations between PFOA and PFOS exposure with the risk of preeclampsia. However, in-depth investigation is imperative to elucidate the impact of the different concentration and types of PFAS on preeclampsia risk. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
