Cover Story: We here present an important study that highlights the prevalence of environmental metal exposure among pregnant women, a critical issue that can have significant implications for maternal and fetal health. Understanding this exposure allows individuals to recognize potential health risks for both mothers and their babies. This information is valuable for anyone interested in maternal and child health, as it raises awareness about the necessity of being mindful of environmental factors during pregnancy. View this paper
