Maternal blood and hair manganese concentrations, fetal growth, and length of gestation in the ISA cohort in Costa Rica....

Mora, Ana M van Wendel de Joode, Berna Mergler, Donna Córdoba, Leonel Cano, Camilo Quesada, Rosario Smith, Donald R Menezes-Filho, José A Eskenazi, Brenda

Published in Environmental research

Mn plays an important role in fetal development, but the extent to which environmental exposures may cause adverse health effects to the developing fetus is not well understood. Among women living near banana plantations in Costa Rica, we did not observe linear or nonlinear associations of Mn concentrations with lowered birth weight or head circumf...

Inverse association of intellectual function with very low blood lead but not with manganese exposure in Italian adolesc...

Lucchini, Roberto G Zoni, Silvia Guazzetti, Stefano Bontempi, Elza Micheletti, Serena Broberg, Karin Parrinello, Giovanni Smith, Donald R

Published in Environmental research

Pediatric lead (Pb) exposure impacts cognitive function and behavior and co-exposure to manganese (Mn) may enhance neurotoxicity. To assess cognitive and behavioral function in adolescents with environmental exposure to Pb and Mn. In this cross sectional study, cognitive function and behavior were examined in healthy adolescents with environmental ...

Impact of ferromanganese alloy plants on household dust manganese levels: implications for childhood exposure.

Lucas, E L Bertrand, P Guazzetti, S Donna, F Peli, M Jursa, T P Lucchini, R Smith, D R

Published in Environmental research

Adolescents living in communities with ferromanganese alloy plant activity have been shown to exhibit deficits in olfactory and fine motor function. Household dust may serve as an important manganese (Mn) exposure pathway to children, though dust Mn concentrations have not previously been measured to assess household contamination from ferromangane...
