Deaths and tumours among rotogravure printers exposed to toluene.
A cohort of 1020 rotogravure printers exposed to toluene and employed for a minimum period of three months in eight plants during 1925-85 was studied. Air levels of toluene were available since 1943 in one plant and since 1969 in most. Based on these measurements and on present concentrations of toluene in blood and subcutaneous fat, the yearly average air levels in each plant were estimated. T...
متن کامل[Somatosensory evoked potentials in workers exposed to toluene].
The aim of our study was to evaluated by means of SEPs possible subclinical impairment of the nervous system during long-lasting toluene exposure. A group of 36 rotogravure printers (men, mean age 39.3 +/- 11.6 years) exposed to toluene from a polygraphic plant in Prague was investigated. The severity of toluene exposure was documented by the measurements of toluene concentration in the breathi...
متن کاملVisual evoked potentials in children prenatally exposed to methylmercury.
Prenatal exposure to methylmercury can cause both neurobehavioral deficits and neurophysiological changes. However, evidence of neurotoxic effects within the visual nervous system is inconsistent, possibly due to incomplete statistical adjustment for beneficial nutritional factors. We evaluated the effect of prenatal methylmercury exposure on visual evoked potential (VEP) latencies in Faroese c...
متن کاملVisual evoked potentials in neurosyphilis.
The visual evoked potential (VEP) to pattern reversal was recorded in 79 patients with neurosyphilis. Sixteen patients (20%) had abnormal VEP latencies with a predominance of pathological VEP values in the group of tabes dorsalis (50%) as compared to general paresis (18%) or meningovascular forms (13%). A comparison of the frequency of abnormal VEPs with that of other ophthalmological tests (vi...
متن کاملVisual evoked potentials in neurobrucellosis.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether visual evoked potentials (VEPs) are valuable for distinguishing between brucellosis with or without neurological involvement. METHODS A total of 23 patients who were admitted to the Department of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology, and Neurology, Ministry of Health Ankara Education and Research Hospital, Ankara, Turkey between December 2004 and August 2005 w...
