Introduction
The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) has collected serum, plasma, and urine specimens since NHANES III (1988–1994). Researchers have conducted health studies on a wide range of topics using available biospecimens from NHANES III and subsequent survey cycles.
Many researchers have published the results of these health studies in professional journals. Publications featured here describe research using NHANES serum, plasma, and urine specimens. These publications do not include authors from the NHANES program.
