Abstract
Plastic waste pollution is one of the leading environmental problems of modern society. Its use, disposal, and recycling lead to the release of xenobiotic compounds such as bisphenol A (BPA), a known endocrine disruptor related to numerous pathologies. Due to the new restrictions on its use, it is gradually being replaced by derived molecules, such as bisphenol F or S (BPF or BPS), whose health risks have not yet been adequately studied. In the present work, significant relationships between the new BPA substitute molecules and renal and cardiovascular diseases have been detected by performing binomial and multinomial logistic regressions in one of the world's largest cohorts of urinary phenols. The results have shown a significant relationship between urinary BPF and renal function or heart disease (specifically congestive heart failure). Urinary BPS has shown a positive relationship with the risk of hypertension and a negative relationship with kidney disease. Consequently, applying new substitute molecules could imply potential health risks equivalent to BPA.
