The best strategy for lead management in children is a matter of debate, and our experiences are limited. This is a retrospective single-center study compa
The objectives of our report were to assess the prevalence of lead poisoning among children under six years of age and to quantify and test the correlations between BLL in children and lead exposure levels in their environment. This cross-sectional analysis was restricted to 75 children under ...

Which children’s snacks did the group test, and what were the results? Are these food items still safe for your kids to eat, and are there healthier snack alternatives? What can you do to reduce your children’s risks of lead exposure from food, and what are these companies doing to ...
Recent research has shown that iodine excess may damage children’s intelligence. Years of monitoring results in Shanghai show the iodine status has approached the upper limit of the appropriate range for children aged 8–10 years, indicating a risk of iodine excess. We used multi-stage random ...
We also found that there was no systematic, risk-informed approach to testing. In areas that had the highest potential risks based on poverty levels, less than 6% of eligible children had lead test results reported to the county health department—the same rate as in other, wealthier census ...
We studied third grade and eighth grade test scores in English Language Arts and mathematics. Using the county as the unit of analysis, we computed bivariate correlations and regression coefficients, with percent of children achieving at the lowest reported level as the dependent variable and the ...
Test score deficits owing to lead exposure were equal to 22% of the interval between student categorization at the "proficient" or "basic" levels in Reading, and 42% of the interval in Mathematics. Children exposed to amounts of lead before age 3 years that are insufficient to trigger ...
Without testing against dangerous lead levels in children’s toys, this hazardous substance will continue to find its way into children’s hands. QIMA Testing services offer the best defense against lead contamination.
As the high BLC districts (mainly from west Georgia) were of more interest, it was decided to test more households from these districts. In the districts where the BLC was not high but the Pb level in soil was found to be above the limit value, it was decided to test only one ...
