The tissue distribution of fluoride in a fatal case of self-poisoning.

The purpose of this paper is to report a case of fluoride poisoning along with a discussion of poisoning characteristics, analytical procedures, and a review of previous reports of fatal intoxications with analytical data. A case of suicidal ingestion of 40 mL of a rust removal agent containing hydrofluoric acid

Associations Between Prenatal Fluoride Exposure and Performance IQ in Canadian Preschool Aged Children: A Multilevel Modeling Approach.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Prenatal fluoride exposure is associated with reduced IQ in children, especially Performance IQ (PIQ; nonverbal intelligence), but studies have not accounted for hierarchical clustering. We examined the association between sex-specific prenatal fluoride exposure and PIQ using multilevel modeling (MLM) to account for nesting of 448 mother-child pairs

Fluoride effects on glutathione peroxidase and lipid peroxidation in rats.

SUMMARY: Eight-week old male Wistar rats weighing 180 g were given sodium fluoride in drinking water at a concentration of 5 and 25 mg F–/L for 12 weeks. Control animals received tap water containing 0.3 mg F–/L. The activity of glutathione peroxidase and the concentration of malondialdehye (MDA) were determined

The NRC's analysis on fluoride and the brain.

Fluoride Affects Learning & Memory in Animals

An association between elevated fluoride exposure and reduced intelligence has now been observed in 65 IQ studies. Although a link between fluoride and intelligence might initially seem surprising or random, it is actually consistent with a large body of animal research. This animal research includes the following 45 studies (out

Fluoride's Direct Effects on Brain: Animal Studies

The possibility that fluoride ingestion may impair intelligence and other indices of neurological function is supported by a vast body of animal research, including over 40 studies that have investigated fluoride's effects on brain quality in animals. As discussed by the National Research Council, the studies have consistently demonstrated that fluoride, at widely varying concentrations, is toxic to the brain.

Fluoride & IQ: 76 Studies

• As of July 18, 2022, a total of 85 human studies have investigated the relationship between fluoride and human intelligence. • Of these investigations, 76 studies have reported that elevated fluoride exposure is associated with reduced IQ in humans. • The studies which reported an association of reduced IQ with exposure

Fluoride: Developmental Neurotoxicity.

Developmental Neurotoxicity There has been a tremendous amount of research done on the association of exposure to fluoride with developmental neurotoxicity. There are over 60 studies reporting reduced IQ in children and several on the impaired learning/memory in animals. And there are studies which link fluoride to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Teaching
