Risk Assessment for Neurobehavioral Toxicity
Background: Brain activity has been investigated by several methods with different principles, notably optical ones. Each method may offer information on distinct physiological or pathological aspects of brain function. The ideal instrument to measure brain activity should include complementary techniques and integrate the resultant information. As a "low cost" approach towards this objective, ...
متن کاملRisk assessment for neurobehavioral toxicity.
A study by the National Academy of Sciences/National Research Council (NAS/NRC) found neurobehavioral toxicity to be one of the areas where almost no data are available for the assessment of toxicity. Using the NAS/NRC report and a data base from the American Conference of Government Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), an estimate of the number of neurobehavioral toxins in commercial chemicals can b...
متن کاملNeurobehavioral epidemiology: application in risk assessment.
Neurobehavioral epidemiology may contribute information to risk assessment in relation to a) characterization of neurotoxicity and its time course; b) the dose-effect relationship; c) the dose-response relationship; and d) predisposing factors. The quality of this information relies on the validity of the exposure data, the validity and sensitivity of neurobehavioral function tests, and the deg...
متن کاملNeurobehavioral assessment of high-risk infants in the neonatal intensive care unit.
Neurobehavioral organization describes infants' abilities to organize themselves within their central nervous system maturation and environment. As part of infants' environment, caregivers can structure the environment to support infants' development. Care of the high-risk infant emphasizes support of infants' emerging neurobehavioral organization. This article describes the theoretical rationa...
متن کاملThe intersection of risk assessment and neurobehavioral toxicity.
Neurobehavioral toxicology is now established as a core discipline of the environmental health sciences. Despite its recognized scientific prowess, stemming from its deep roots in psychology and neuroscience and its acknowledged successes, it faces additional demands and challenges. The latter, in fact, are a product of its achievements because success at one level leads to new and higher expec...
