Carbon disulfide exposure estimate and prevalence of chronic diseases after carbon disulfide poisoning-related occupational diseases
Background In Korea, Carbon disulfide (CS2) toxicity was an important social problem from the late 1980s to the early 1990s but there have been few large-scale studies examining the prevalence of diseases after CS2 exposure discontinuance. So we investigated past working exposure to CS2 characteristics from surviving ex-workers of a rayon manufacturing plant including cumulative CS2 exposure in...
متن کاملBrain MRI Findings of Carbon Disulfide Poisoning
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the findings of brain MRI in patients with carbon disulfide poisoning. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-one patients who had suffered carbon disulfide poisoning [male:female=87:4; age, 32-74 (mean 53.3) years] were included in this study. To determine the extent of white matter hyperintensity (Grade 0-V) and lacunar infarction, T2-weighted MR imaging of the brain was perform...
متن کاملNeuropsychiatric effects in workers with occupational exposure to carbon disulfide.
In a cross-sectional study, prevalence of dysfunctions of the central nervous system was assessed in 134 male workers exposed to different levels of carbon disulfide (CS2) in a rayon viscose plant and compared to 38 non-exposed workers. In three groups of workers from the same plant with different levels of CS2 (heavy, intermediate, none) estimated by personal samplers, disorders in the central...
متن کاملCarbon disulfide.
The September 1998 issue of EHP contained two articles about the neurotoxicity of carbon disulfide. The "NIEHS News" article (1) reported on a collaborative study that involved scientists from the NIEHS (Nashville, TN). In this study, the neurotoxicity of carbon disulfide was detailed from the earliest molecular alterations to neurobehavioral findings to electrophysiologic and morphologic chang...
