Journal ArticleDOI
Lead poisoning associated with the use of Ayurvedic metal-mineral tonics.
TL;DR: Ayurvedic metal-mineral tonics are again identified as a potential source of high lead and the import of such tonics should be strictly controlled.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined chelation therapy in reducing tissue lead concentrations in suckling rats.
Krista Kostial,Maja Blanuša,Martina Piasek,Nada Restek-Samaržija,Mark M. Jones,Pramod K. Singh +5 more
TL;DR: The results do not support combined treatment in this age group, which is especially sensitive to trace element deficiencies, and suggest that meso‐DMSA might be the treatment of choice in acute lead poisoning in infants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individual variation in response to lead exposure: a dilemma for the occupational health physician.
TL;DR: Different responses of biological indices in 50 lead-exposed workers who have been working in the same plant of lead pigment production factory are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined Oral Treatment with racemic and meso-2,3-Dimercaptosuccinic Acid for Removal of Mercury in Rats
Krista Kostial,Nada Restek-Samaržija,Maja Blanuša,Martina Piasek,Mark M. Jones,Pramod K. Singh +5 more
TL;DR: It was concluded that even a single application of the more toxic racemic-DMSA during a four-day oral treatment regimen is sufficient to improve the removal by meso- DMSA of mercury from rats.
Journal Article
Meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid in the treatment of occupationally exposed lead workers
Nada Restek-Samaržija,Maja Blanuša,Alica Pizent,Miroslav Samaržija,Rajka Turk,Naima Čorović,Jasna Jurasović +6 more
TL;DR: It can be concluded that DMSA can effectively reduce chelatable lead in occupationally exposed workers with increased lead absorption and no overt symptoms of lead poisoning.
