In 1998 a Californian (MMWR, 2001) mother requested a blood lead level determination for her 18-month-old child. The result was a blood lead level (BLL) of 26 LLg/dl, which was well above the Center for Disease Control s (CDC) recommended criterion for clinical case management. It was subsequently found that the father had a BLL of 46 ( lg/dl, which was above the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirement that workers with BLLs greater than 40 lg/dl receive additional medical examinations. Further testing found that his 4-month-old daughter had a BLL of 24 Rg/dl. This worker was employed in a company that refinished antique furniture, some of which was covered with lead-based paint. Subsequent testing of co-workers found that two refinishers had BLLs of 29 and 54 Rg/dl and four carpenters had BLLs of 46, 46, 47, and 56 ( lg/dl. A child in another family had a BLL of 16 ( lg/dl.

In 1995, Bramble published a study on the prescription frequency of antidepressants by British child psychiatrists (Bramble, 1995). A brief postal questionnaire was circulated to 350 members of the British Royal College of Psychiatrists, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Specialist Sections. There was a 71% response rate, and 85% of the 238 respondents had employed antidepressants, the most popular of these being amitriptyline and imipramine. Nearly one-third of the psychiatrists at that time used neuroagents occasionally, and the SSRIs were used only very rarely. The antidepressant medication was used for a wide range of child and adolescent disorders beyond those of depression and nocturnal enuresis. Approximately 20% of the prescriptions were given for ADHD (hyperkinetic disorder), conduct disorder, and a few cases of autistic disorder. Clomipramine was apparently given for OCD. On the basis of these 1994 data. Bramble concluded that British child psychiatrists tend to use antidepressant medication far less often than American psychiatrists. [Pg.748]

The most notorious example of post-Symbolist alchemical imagery in Erench artistic theory was that employed by Andre Breton (1896-1966), the Pope of Surrealism. Breton s many affinities with mainstream Symbolist art theory need not detain us here, with the exception of one familiar and ongoing leitmotif, le Rive. Besides being a recognized core idea in Symbolist poetics, the Dream was also much discussed by another spiritual step-child of Symbolismus, Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), who published The Interpretation of Dreams in 1900. As seems conveniently overlooked, the Rives-Traume... [Pg.55]

Studies of working women present the potential for additional bias, because some factors that influence employment status may also affect reproductive end-points. For example, because of child care responsibilities, women may terminate employment, as might women with a history of reproductive problems who wish to have children and are concerned about workplace exposures (Joffe, 1983 Lemasters Pinney, 1989). Thus, retrospective studies of female exposure that do not include terminated female workers may be of limited use in risk assessment, because the level of risk for some of the outcomes is likely to be overestimated (Lemasters Pinney, 1989). [Pg.120]
