* This news is based on the following article: Campos E, Freire C. Exposure to non-persistent pesticides and thyroid function: a systematic review of epidemiological evidence. Int J Hyg Environ Health 2016; 219 : 481-97.doi: 10.1016/j.ijheh.2016.05.006

Very few epidemiological studies have examined the effect on thyroid function of exposure to currently used non-persistent pesticides. The two authors of this review note frequent inconsistencies between the results of these studies and their experimental data and call for better quality research.
