Exposure to brominated flame retardants (BFRs) has been widely confirmed impair the normal functioning of human body system. However, there is a paucity study on effects serum BFRs bone mineral density (BMD). This aims investigate relationship between exposure and BMD in nationally representative sample U.S. adults.
