This study compares classical indicators of health with endpoints related to reproductive success, estrogen metabolism, metabolic and glucocorticoid stress-responses, and changes in DNA methylation as potential biomarker of exposure and long term effects. These endpoints are important because if abnormal, in addition to affect health during development, they may lead to long term adverse health effects during adulthood. See the details of the methodology in the articles.
