LATE EFFECTS OF LEAD POISONING ON MENTAL DEVELOPMENT

BYERS, R. K., LORD, E. E.·1943·Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine

Abstract

FOREWORD The sudden tragic death of Dr. Lord on Jan. 10, 1943 occurred before the completion of the final draft of this paper. It was she who first felt that the minor deviations found on psychologic examination of these children with lead poisoning might be of important significance for the future. It was she who maintained the file of cases, studying them from the psychologic point of view, without encouragement from any one for the first several years. That lead poisoning occurring in early life usually has a disastrous effect on mental development has not been generally recognized, though the subject of lead poisoning in children has been discussed by many observers. The manifestations of acute involvement of the nervous system have been adequately described, and the gross destructive lesions in the brain consequent to acute lead encephalopathy accompanied by cerebral edema and high intracranial pressure have been recognized.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
