Título Renal ultrastructure, renal function, and parameters of lead toxicity in workers with different periods of lead exposure.
Información bibliográfica Apr. 1974, Vol.31, No.2, p.113-127. Illus. 30 ref.
Resumen Renal biopsies from 5 men with heavy occupational exposure to lead were compared with studies of their renal function and parameters of lead toxicity. 2 men had lead exposure of less than 1 year, while 3 had been exposed for from 4 to more than 30 years. Renal function studies were performed in 2 men from whom renal biopsies could not be obtained. The study demonstrates that the pathogenesis of chronic lead nephropathy is a continuum of morphological and functional change that can be divided into 2 stages which are described.
