Arsenic in drinking water and the prevalence of respiratory effects in West Bengal, India

TL;DR: Evidence is added that long-term ingestion of inorganic arsenic can cause respiratory effects by participants with arsenic-induced skin lesions who also had high levels of arsenic in their current drinking water source compared with individuals who had normal skin and were exposed to low levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Children's intellectual function in relation to arsenic exposure.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a cross-sectional study among 351 children age 5 to 15 years who were selected from a source population of 7683 people in West Bengal, India, in 2001-2003.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hepatic damage caused by chronic arsenic toxicity in experimental animals.

TL;DR: Hepatic fibrosis due to long-term arsenic toxicity in an animal model is demonstrated and the murine model is proposed as relevant to epidemic human toxicity in areas of arsenic contamination.
Journal Article

Children's intellectual function in relation to arsenic exposure. Commentary

TL;DR: Current arsenic concentrations in urine, which reflect all sources of recent exposure, including water and food, were associated with small decrements in intellectual testing in school-aged children in West Bengal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arsenic-induced skin lesions among Atacameño people in Northern Chile despite good nutrition and centuries of exposure.

TL;DR: The prevalence of skin lesions among men and children in the small population studied was similar to that reported with corresponding arsenic drinking water concentrations in both Taiwan and West Bengal, India--populations in which extensive malnutrition has been thought to increase susceptibility.
