TL;DR: Thousands of hair, nail, and urine samples from people living in arsenic-affected villages have been analyzed to date; Bangladesh and West Bengal, 93 and 77% samples, on an average, contained arsenic above the normal/toxic level.

TL;DR: Limited trials of 4 arsenic chelators in the treatment of chronic arsenic toxicity in West Bengal over the last 2 decades do not provide any clinical, biochemical, or histopathological benefit except for the accompanying preliminary report of clinical benefit with dimercaptopropanesulfonate therapy.

TL;DR: This book aims to provide a history of dermatology in Bangladesh and some of the techniques used in the field have been described as new and innovative.

TL;DR: Water analyses from the four principal geomorphological regions of Bangladesh showed that hand tubewells of the Tableland and Hill tract regions are primarily free from As contamination, while the Flood plain and Deltaic region, including the Coastal region, are highly As-contaminated.

TL;DR: Evidence of neurotoxicity of the mixture, as well as potential synergism between arsenic and manganese, is found, suggesting that arsenic might be a potentiator of mangansese toxicity.
