TI  - Association of Rare Earth Elements with Passive Smoking among Housewives in 
      Shanxi Province, China.

AB  - BACKGROUND: Rare earth elements (REEs) are emerging contaminants. Previous 
      studies reported the association between REEs and active smoking, but little is 
      known about the effects of passive smoking on this condition. In China, female 
      passive smoking is widespread, particularly in rural areas. OBJECTIVE: This study 
      aimed to estimate the relationship between REEs accumulation and passive smoking 
      among rural housewives. METHODS: We recruited 385 subjects in Shanxi Province of 
      northern China, of whom 117 housewives were exposed to passive smoking, and 268 
      were not. We analyzed 15 REEs in the hair of housewives with ICP-MS, including 
      lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, 
      terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium, lutetium, and yttrium. 
      RESULTS: The results indicated higher levels of 14 REEs except for Sm in both the 
      univariate and adjusted models among the housewives exposed to passive smoking. 
      The increasing linear trend of adjusted odds ratios of 15 REEs supported their 
      association. The Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) models showed that 15 
      REEs had a significant overall effect, and Eu had a single-exposure effect with 
      passive smoking. CONCLUSION: We concluded that passive smoking might be 
      associated with increased exposure to REEs among rural housewives.
