Abstract Purpose of Review An emerging body of evidence has raised concern regarding
the potentially harmful effects of inhaled pollutants on the central nervous system during the …

Manganese (Mn), upon absorption, is primarily sequestered in tissue and intracellular
compartments. For this reason, blood Mn concentration does not always accurately reflect …

Objectives Manganese exposure leads to diffuse cerebral metal deposition with the highest
concentration in the globus pallidus associated with increased T1-weighted MRI signal. T1 …

Despite evidence of adverse health effects resulting from exposure to manganese (Mn),
biomarkers of exposure are poorly understood. To enhance understanding, mean blood Mn …

Manganese (Mn), an essential element, can be neurotoxic in high doses. This cross-
sectional study explored the cognitive function of adults residing in two towns (Marietta and …

Although manganese (Mn) is a trace metal essential for humans, chronic exposure to Mn
can cause accumulation of this metal ion in the brain leading to an increased risk of …

Objective Long-term, high-level exposure to manganese (Mn) is associated with impaired
central nervous system (CNS) function. We quantitatively explored relations between low …

Welding-generated metallic fumes contain a substantial amount of manganese (Mn), making
welders susceptible to Mn toxicity. Although overt Mn toxicity manifests as a type of …

Exposure to high levels of manganese (Mn) in occupational settings is known to lead to
adverse neurological effects. Since Mn is an essential nutrient, there are mechanisms that …

Mn is an essential element that causes neurotoxicity in humans when inhaled at high
concentrations. This metal has well-recognized route-dependent differences in absorption …
