Epidemic of neurolathyrism in Ethiopia.

H Getahun, A Mekonnen, R TekleHaimanot, F Lambein.   

Abstract

After a drought and famine, overconsumption of the drought-tolerant grasspea triggered an epidemic of neurodegenerative neurolathyrism in Northeast Ethiopia. Environmental, nutritional, and medical factors seem to affect the susceptibility.
