Analyses of the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) in 1988 to 1994 found an association of increasing blood lead levels <10\ue2\u20ac\u160\uce\ubcg/dL with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. The potential need to correct blood lead for hematocrit/hemoglobin and adjust for biomarkers for other metals, for example, cadmium and iron, had not been addressed in the previous NHANES III-based studies on blood lead-CVD mortality association.We analyzed 1999 to 2010 NHANES data for 18,602 participants who had a blood lead measurement, were \ue2\u2030\ua540 years of age at the baseline examination and were followed for mortality through 2011. We calculated the relative risk for CVD mortality as a...
