Intellectual Impairment in Muscular Dystrophy.
The association of intellectual retardation with childhood muscular dystrophy was noted many years ago. Duchenne (1872) thought that 5 of his 13 cases were retarded.

Assessment of Acquired Color Vision Impairment among the Workers Exposed to Mixed Organic Solvents in an Automobile Manufacturing Company
Background and Objectives: Solvents are widely used in industries. Occupational exposure to organic solvents can lead to dysfunction of the nervous system. Since color-vision impairment can be a sensitive and early marker of neurotoxic damage, this study was designed to determine the influence of chronic occupational exposure to organic solvent mixtures on color vision. Materials and Methods: ...
متن کاملLow-level environmental lead exposure and intellectual impairment in children--the current concepts of risk assessment.
Lead is an environmental contaminant. The majority of epidemiological research on the health effects of lead has been focused on children, because they are more vulnerable to lead than adults. In children, an elevated blood lead (B-Pb) is associated with reduced Intelligence Quotient (IQ) score. This paper summarizes the current opinions on the assessment of the health risk connected with the c...
متن کاملIntellectual impairment and blood lead levels.
to the editor: In the light of the report on intellectual impairment and blood lead levels by Canfield et al. (April 17 issue), 1 we reanalyzed data from our prospective cohort study, 2 focusing on 48 children whose blood lead levels never exceeded 10 μg per deciliter at birth or at 6, 12, 18, 24, 57, or 120 months. The IQ at 120 months was inversely related to the lead level at 24 months with ...
