Journal ArticleDOI
Copper and Zinc, Biological Role and Significance of Copper/Zinc Imbalance
TL;DR: The human body has an elaborate system for managing and regulating the amount of key trace metals circulating in blood and stored in cells, but when this system fails to function properly, abnormal levels and ratios of trace metals can develop.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results of this study partly support the assumption that long-term occupational exposure to Hg0 enhances the formation of free radicals even several years after termination of occupational exposure, and could be one of the risk factors for increased lipid peroxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Early assessment and treatment of antioxidant status may result in a better prognosis as it could decrease the oxidative stress in the brain before it can induce more irreversible brain damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting complications of pregnancy with first‐trimester maternal serum free‐βhCG, PAPP‐A and inhibin‐A
TL;DR: To find whether fβhCG, PAPP‐A and inhibin‐A levels in maternal serum or fetal nuchal translucency (NT) thickness at the first‐trimester screening for trisomy 21 (T21) might detect women at high risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes, a large number of women were surveyed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that European city children's B-Cd and B-Pb vary only little between countries; B-Hg differs considerably, due to varying tooth restoration practices and fish intake, and traffic intensity close to home was a statistically significant determinant.
