Decreased stature associated with moderate blood lead concentrations in Mexican-American children.

A R Frisancho1, A S Ryan.   

Abstract

The relationship of blood lead concentration to stature was evaluated by examining data from a sample of 1454 Mexican-American children aged 5-12 y, derived from the data sets of the Hispanic Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (HHANES) conducted in 1982-1984. The results indicate that there is an inverse relationship between blood lead concentration in the range 0.14-1.92 mumol/L with stature. The present finding suggests that growth retardation may be associated even with moderate concentrations of blood lead. Therefore, permissible exposure levels of lead for children deserve reexamination in light of the present analysis.
