Cumulative Lead Dose and Cognitive Function in Adults: A Review of Studies That Measured Both Blood Lead and Bone Lead
OBJECTIVE We review empirical evidence for the relations of recent and cumulative lead dose with cognitive function in adults. DATA SOURCES A systematic search of electronic databases resulted in 21 environmental and occupational studies from 1996 to 2006 that examined and compared associations of recent (in blood) and cumulative (in bone) lead doses with neurobehavioral outcomes. DATA EXTR...
متن کاملThe relationship between blood lead, bone lead and child intelligence.
We report associations between serial measures of blood lead and intelligence in children age 10-12 years, half heavily exposed to lead from the prenatal period onward, and half relatively unexposed. For a subsample, we examine bone lead-IQ associations, comparing them with bone lead associations. Both blood and bone lead levels were associated with intelligence decrements, small relative to th...

IN a survey of the paediatric significance of environmental lead there was evidence that part of the maternal intake of lead may influence the fetus' (Barltrop, 1969). Lead is incorporated in calcified tissues, and the studies of Altshuller, Halak and Landing (1962) andof Needleman, Tuncay and Shapiro (1972) indicate that the primary teeth provide evidence of lead exposure during infancy, a typ...
متن کاملAssessment of exposure to lead through air and biological monitoring in a lead and zinc mine
Background and aim: Lead is ubiquitous and one of the earliest metals discovered by the human. This metal is widely used in different industries due to its important physico-chemical properties like softness, high malleability, ductility, low melting point and resistance to corrosion. Lead absorbed in body with several routs and when transfer in blood is primarily in red blood cells. Human exp...
متن کاملLead and Lead Poisoning from Antiquity to Modern Times
Lead, because of its low melting point, was one of the first metals used by man. It was probably isolated soon after the ancients discovered the use of fire. Archeological discoveries indicate the presence of lead objects and pigments during the early Bronze Age. In ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman times metallic lead was produced as a by-product of silver mining. Extensive evidence of ancient ...
