The cholinergic system, intelligence, and dental fluorosis in school-aged children with low-to-moderate fluoride exposure.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper explored the associations of moderate fluoride exposure and cholinergic system in relation to children's dental fluorosis and intelligence quotient (IQ) and found that low-to-moderate fluoride exposure was associated with dysfunction of cholineergic system for children.

A global perspective on psycho-educational assessment

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on school psychology and psycho-educational assessment in three countries: Bangladesh, China and Iran, and conclude that it is important for psychologists in western countries to support professional training and testing practices in less developed countries.

A rationale for lowering the blood lead action level from 10 to 2 μg/dL ☆

TL;DR: There is now sufficient and compelling scientific evidence for the CDC to lower the blood lead action level in children, and a level of 2 mg/dL is a useful and feasible replacement.
