Lead and child development

TL;DR: A group of independent epidemiological studies shows that fetal exposure to levels of lead previously considered safe is linked to impairment of infant mental development.
Journal ArticleDOI

The comparative developmental neurotoxicity of lead in humans and animals

TL;DR: Although the convergence between animal and human findings for other neurobehavioral endpoints is not as striking, sensory-evoked potentials and communicative processes offer two promising areas for continued investigation and cross-species comparison.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in manganese and lead in the environment and young children associated with the introduction of methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl in gasoline--preliminary results.

TL;DR: At this early stage of the investigation, the investigation has not been able to detect any increases in Mn in these environmental samples or blood samples potentially associated with the use of MMT; in fact the Mn levels in handwipes declined over time.
