Pre-pregnancy exposure to arsenic in diet and non-cardiac birth defects

Limitations in exposure assessment may have resulted in exposure misclassification. Continued research with improved exposure assessment is recommended to identify if these associations are true signals or chance findings.PMID:35620934 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980022001318
