Positive Association between Endothelium–Platelet Microparticles and Urinary Concentration of Lead and Cadmium in Adolescents and Young Adults
(1) Background: In previous research, higher levels of urine heavy metals, especially lead and cadmium, have been associated with increased cardiovascular risk. However, there is no information linking exposure to heavy metal to endothelial and platelet microparticles (EMPs and PMPs), particularly i...
