Fluoride in Drinking Water: A Review on the Status and Stress Effects

TL;DR: There is an essential relation between poverty and fluorosis as malnutrition is found to play an aggressive role in its severity, as the lack of access to clean water denies the most essential of all rights, the right to life.

Toxicological profile for fluorides, hydrogen fluoride, and fluorine

TL;DR: This edition supersedes any previously released draft or final profile and provides information helpful for fast answers to often-asked questions about toxic substances.

"Risk periods" associated with the development of dental fluorosis in maxillary permanent central incisors: a meta-analysis

TL;DR: The duration of fluoride exposure during the amelogenesis, rather than specific risk periods, would seem to explain the development of dental fluorosis in the maxillary permanent central incisors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorides in groundwater, soil and infused black tea and the occurrence of dental fluorosis among school children of the Gaza strip.

TL;DR: In this paper, a linear regression analysis was performed to determine the fluoride levels in water, soil and tea, and to identify the major fluoride minerals in soil that supply water with fluoride ions.
Journal Article

Fluoride Contamination in Drinking Water - A Review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a view on the sources of fluoride in drinking water, its impacts on health and different control measures for the treatment of fluoride contamination, including adsorption of clays, solid industrial wastes, carbonaceous materials, bone charcoal, natural and synthetic zeolites, etc.

Methoxyflurane Nephrotoxicity: A Study of Dose Response in Man

Michael J. Cousins, +1 more
- 24 Sep 1973 - 
TL;DR: The use of methoxyflurane in clinical anesthesia should be restricted to situations where it offers specific advantages and where dosages less than 2.5 MAC hours can be attained.

Effect of combined therapy with sodium fluoride, vitamin D and calcium in osteoporosis

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of variable levels of fluoride and calcium intake, accompanied by vitamin D, on osteoporosis in eleven patients treated for one year Bone biopsies indicated an increase in new bone formation in all patients receiving 45 mg of sodium fluoride per day, whereas 600 mg of calcium per day prevented both osteomalacia and any increase in bone resorption.
Journal Article

Distribution of beta-lipoprotein between low-density and very low-density lipoproteins.

TL;DR: In order to restore bone mass in osteoporotic subjects without producing roentgenographic or microscopic evidence of fluorosis, a therapeutic regimen of 50 mg of sodium fluoride and at least 900 mg of calcium per day and 50,000 units of vitamin D twice weekly is recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prophylactic fluoride treatment and aged bones.

TL;DR: In a double-blind trial with monofluorophosphate (25 mg fluoride per day) given to 460 aged persons for eight months no difference was observed in height, admission to hospital, or mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple-Myeloma Bone Disease the Comparative Effect of Sodium Fluoride and Calcium Carbonate or Placebo

TL;DR: Fluoride calcium should be considered a useful adjunct in the treatment for multiple myeloma and its determinations proved insensitive for detection of skeletal changes.
