With the reference to the position statements of the Endocrine Society, the Paediatric Endocrine Society, and the European Society of Paediatric Endocrinology, the Polish Society of Endocrinology points out the adverse health effects caused by endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) commonly used in daily life as components of plastics, food containers, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. The statement is based on the alarming data about the increase of the prevalence of many endocrine disorders such as: cryptorchidism, precocious puberty in girls and boys, and hormone-dependent cancers (endometrium, breast, prostate). In our opinion, it is of human benefit to conduct epidemiological studies that will enable the estimation of the risk factors of exposure to EDCs and the probability of endocrine disorders. Increasing consumerism and the industrial boom has led to severe pollution of the environment with a corresponding negative impact on human health; thus, there is great necessity for the biomonitoring of EDCs in Poland.
参照美国内分泌学会、儿科内分泌学会以及欧洲儿科内分泌学会的立场声明,波兰内分泌学会指出,日常生活中常用作塑料、食品容器、药品和化妆品成分的内分泌干扰化学物质(EDCs)对健康具有不良影响。该声明基于诸多令人担忧的数据,这些数据显示许多内分泌疾病的患病率在上升,如隐睾症、女童和男童性早熟以及激素依赖性癌症(子宫内膜癌、乳腺癌、前列腺癌)。我们认为,开展流行病学研究以评估接触EDCs的风险因素以及患内分泌疾病的可能性,对人类有益。消费主义的增长和工业繁荣导致环境严重污染,对人类健康产生了相应的负面影响;因此,波兰非常有必要对EDCs进行生物监测。
