Exposure to Organochlorine Pollutants and Impact on Development in the Peripubertal Age in Guadeloupe

For the aim of the present study, we will follow-up children born alive in the TIMOUN cohort at peripubertal age. Questionnaires will be administered to parents on the child's health and lifestyle. Stature-weight anthropometric and cardio-dynamic measurements of the child will be obtained. Scores on three cognitive tests will be obtained. Furthermore, steroid hormones and chlordecone in the child's peripheral blood will be determined.
