The relationship between mixed exposure to blood metal and serum neurofilament light chain levels in the general U.S. population: an unsupervised clustering approach by Jiyu Nie, Jiyu Nie, Lin Wen, Zhentian Lai, Zhentian Lai, Chuhang Lin, Chuhang Lin, Haiyin Li, Haiyin Li, Jing Zhang, Jing Zhang, Shen Xie, Shen Xie, Xiaosong Ben, Chunxia Jing, Chunxia Jing

“…Multivariate regression model, Bayesian kernel regression (BKMR) and quantile g-computation (QGC) were used to assess the relationship between individual and mixed metal exposure and sNfL.ResultsMultivariate regression revealed a significant positive association between blood cadmium concentrations and elevated sNfL levels in the overall population (β = 0.115, 95%CI: 0.039–0.190, p = 0.003). Through exposure pattern recognition using unsupervised k-medoids clustering, participants were stratified into distinct exposure subgroups: a high-exposure cluster (n = 326) and a low-exposure (n = 187) reference group. …”
