Associations between time-weighted postnatal methylmercury exposure from fish consumption and neurodevelopmental outcomes through 24 years of age in the Seychelles Child Development Study Main Cohort

However, the associations are statistical and of unknown, if any, clinical significance. The results need confirmation in other cohorts.PMID:35643326 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuro.2022.05.016
