In a population based sample of primary care patients who were subjected to thyroid function blood tests, we found a TSH level dependent relation between the degree of thyroid dysfunction and risk of new onset atrial fibrillation.
In this context, a recent report based on a community-based sample of subjects exposed to perfluorooctanoic acid emissions from an industrial facility reported a concentration-dependent clearance for perfluorooctanoic acid, with half-lives of 2.9 years at higher exposure levels and 8.5 years for lower exposure levels.
