Lead microintoxication and intellectual development in children

Mieczysława Czerwionka-Szaflarska, Andrzej Nowak

Med Sci Monit 1996; 2(5): RA695-699 :: ID: 500111

Abstract

The recent knowledge of harmful effects of lead on blood levels in children previously considered to be within the normal range provides a new outlook on lead poisoning. The present data indicate a significant harmful outcome with the blood lead level >15 mcg/dl. The present study is a review of literature focussing mainly on the effects of lead upon the central nervous system and intellectual performance in children in this century.

Keywords: Lead Poisoning, lesd microintoxication, intellectual development, children
