This chapter summarizes the historical record for lead (Pb) toxicity in human populations. This health history of toxic impacts in humans focuses on lead's temporal reach and attempts a systematized look at the evolution of lead toxicology and epidemiology as a public health issue. The chapter ...
Lead toxicity in older adults 来自 Wiley 喜欢 0 阅读量: 35 作者:EK Vig,H Hu 摘要: Recent studies have shown that lead, even at relatively low levels of exposure, has the potential to harm not only the young and the occupationally-exposed, but also older people. Because they have been ...
Lead toxicity to humans has been known for centuries, attracting considerable attention as a public health issue in the late twentieth century when longitudinal studies highlighted irreversible effects of low-level chronic exposure to lead on children’s IQ. Introduced legislation subsequently controlled o...
Lead (Pb) toxicity has been a subject of interest for environmental scientists due to its toxic effect on plants, animals, and humans. An increase in several Pb related industrial activities and use of Pb containing products such as agrochemicals, oil and paint, mining, etc. can lead to Pb...
Toxicity today Since lead was used in so many products before people recognized the extent of its toxicity, it continues to pose a real public health danger today. For example, children living in older homes can still breathe in or ingest dust or paint chips from peeling lead paint on the ...
Cadmium, mercury, and lead are toxic to humans and animals. Although cadmium and inorganic mercury toxicities occur in humans, they have not been observed in domestic livestock under practical conditions. In contrast, cattle, especially young calves, are extremely susceptible to lead toxicity. Apparen...
Lead poisoning is one of the oldest, permanent hazards in the world and Iran is not excluded and has the same risk of lead toxicity. Humans have known about the potential hazards of lead poisoning for centuries. Lead is widespread in natural substances, and almost all people are in touch ...

Lead (Pb), a ubiquitous and potent neurotoxicant, induces several neurophysiological and behavioural changes, while Pb alters the function of multiple organs and systems, it primarily affects the central nervous system. In human adults, encephalopathy resulting from Pb intoxication is often characterized...
