  abstract = {{T}his study assessed lead, arsenic, and antimony in maternal and cord blood, and associations between maternal concentrations and social determinants in the {B}olivian mining city of {O}ruro using the baseline assessment of the {T}ox{B}ol/{M}ine-{N}ino birth cohort. {W}e recruited 467 pregnant women, collecting venous blood and sociodemographic information as well as placental cord blood at birth. {M}etallic/semimetallic trace elements were measured using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. {L}ead medians in maternal and cord blood were significantly correlated ({S}pearman coefficient=0.59; p<0.001; 19.35 and 13.50g/{L}, respectively). {A}rsenic concentrations were above detection limit (3.30g/{L}) in 17.9% of maternal and 34.6% of cord blood samples. {T}hey were not associated ({F}ischer's p=0.72). {A}ntimony medians in maternal and cord blood were weakly correlated ({S}pearman coefficient=0.15; p<0.03; 9.00 and 8.62g/{L}, respectively). {H}igher concentrations of toxic elements in maternal blood were associated with maternal smoking, low educational level, and partner involved in mining.},
