Pharmacogenomics and Minority Populations General Population Survey Questionnaire, 337... 

Local irritation and mild central nervous system symptoms were reported in a questionnaire survey, but no abnormalities were seen in a health examination, clinical chemistry, or haematological parameters among 175 xylene-exposed employees, whose exposure to xylene was on average 21 ppm [87 mg/m ] (Uchida et al., 1993). Minor effects on body sway, reaction times or overnight sleep pattern were observed after experimental inhalation exposure to xylene (200 ppm [870 mg/m ], 5 h per day for six days) (Laine et al., 1993). 

In a questionnaire survey 66 surgeons who had used tumescent anesthesia for liposuction reported that the complications in 15336 patients had been infrequent and minor [42 ]. There had been no serious complications such as death, embolism, hypovolemic shock, perforation of peritoneum or thorax, or thrombophlebitis. Blood transfusions had not been required and there had been no admissions to the hospital for treatment of complications.
