https://www.selleckchem.com/products/sgi-110.html Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) exposure is widespread in the general population and previous research has suggested that it contains endocrine-disrupting properties that can adversely affect the reproductive health system. The objective of this study was to use the 2013-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data to assess the potential association between DEHP exposure and infertility in women. Using a nationally representative, cross-sectional study design, we used multiple logistic regression to measure the association of urinary metabolites of DEHP with self-reported history of infertility among women. Four metabolites of DEHP were examined mono(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (MEHP), mono(2-ethyl-5-hydroxy-hexyl)phthalate (MEHHP), mono(2-ethyl-5-oxy-hexyl) phthalate (MEOHP), and mono(2-ethyl-5-carboxy-pentyl)phthalate (MECPP). These metabolites were calculated into a molar sum of DEHP (∑DEHP) and split into quartiles for analysis. After adjusting for age and race, ∑DEHP was associated with increased odds of infertility for the second quartile (AOR = 2.35, 95% CI [1.24,4.44], p = 0.01) and third quartile (AOR = 2.83, 95% CI [1.57, 5.10], p  less then  0.01) when compared to the first quartile (reference). The adjusted OR for the highest quartile of ∑DEHP found no association and it was not statistically significant (AOR = 0.99, 95 %CI [0.57, 1.73], p = 0.98). The findings of this study add to the already complex existing literature on phthalate exposure and infertility. These findings warrant further population-based cohort studies on phthalate exposure and their relationship to infertility in humans. Extracts of the stem bark of Ficus paltyphylla (FP) are used in the Nigerian traditional medicine to manage psychoses, depression, epilepsy, pain, and inflammation. Our previous studies revealed that the methanol extract of FP ameliorate body core temperature. A number of pharmacological agents that
