Briefly, we recruited the study population from adolescents in the last two years of high school and who resided in Belgium either in a suburb of Antwerp (Hoboken or Wilrijk) or, as controls, in the small town of Peer and its countryside surroundings.
Environmental monitoring showed that Peer was less polluted than the suburbs of Hoboken and Wilrijk, which are located 11-13 km southeast of the chemical and petrochemical industry established in the seaport of Antwerp.
