  • Toxicological Profile for Carbon Tetrachloride
    CARBON TETRACHLORIDE 27 3. HEALTH EFFECTS 3.1 INTRODUCTION The primary purpose of this chapter is to provide public health officials, physicians, toxicologists, and other interested individuals and groups with an overall perspective on the toxicology of carbon tetrachloride. It contains descriptions and evaluations of toxicological studies and epidemiological investigations and provides conclusions, where possible, on the relevance of toxicity and toxicokinetic data to public health. A glossary and list of acronyms, abbreviations, and symbols can be found at the end of this profile. 3.2 DISCUSSION OF HEALTH EFFECTS BY ROUTE OF EXPOSURE To help public health professionals and others address the needs of persons living or working near hazardous waste sites, the information in this section is organized first by route of exposure (inhalation, oral, and dermal) and then by health effect (death, systemic, immunological, neurological, reproductive, developmental, genotoxic, and carcinogenic effects). These data are discussed in terms of three exposure periods: acute (14 days or less), intermediate (15–364 days), and chronic (365 days or more). Levels of significant exposure for each route and duration are presented in tables and illustrated in figures. The points in the figures showing no-observed-adverse-effect levels (NOAELs) or lowest­ observed-adverse-effect levels (LOAELs) reflect the actual doses (levels of exposure) used in the studies. LOAELs have been classified into "less serious" or "serious" effects. "Serious" effects are those that evoke failure in a biological system and can lead to morbidity or mortality (e.g., acute respiratory distress or death). "Less serious" effects are those that are not expected to cause significant dysfunction or death, or those whose significance to the organism is not entirely clear.

  • Alcool Expertise Collective Alcool Effets Sur La Santé Effets Sur La Santé
    Expertise collective Alcool Expertise collective Alcool Effets sur la santé Effets sur la santé Les effets de l’alcool sur la santé font aujour- d’hui encore l’objet d’une importante recherche. Les travaux nous apprennent que ces effets dépendent non seulement des niveaux de consommation, mais également de la suscepti- bilité du consommateur et de ses modalités de consommation. Effets cardiovasculaires délé- tères ou bénéfiques, cancers, hépatopathies, atteintes des systèmes nerveux central ou péri- phérique, toutes les conséquences d’une consommation d’alcool ont été passées au crible dans le cadre de cette expertise collective de l’Inserm effectuée à la demande de la Cnamts, du CFES et de la Mildt. Comment traduire les données récentes en Effets sur la santé termes d’information et de messages de préven- tion ? Les conclusions de cette expertise invitent à adapter ces messages aux différentes popula- tions (jeunes, adultes, personnes âgées) et aux situations particulières (femmes enceintes, Alcool conduite automobile, professions à risque, situations sanitaires à risque…). Prix 180 FF € 27,44 Expertise collective ISBN 2-85598-797-0 ISSN 1264-1782 www.inserm.fr Cet ouvrage présente les travaux du groupe d’experts réunis par l’Inserm dans le cadre de la procédure d’expertise collective, pour répondre aux questions posées par le Comité français d’éducation pour la santé (CFES), la Caisse nationale d’assurance maladie des travailleurs salariés (Cnamts) et la Mission interministérielle de lutte contre la drogue et la toxicomanie (Mildt) concer- nant les effets de la consommation d’alcool sur la santé. Il s’appuie sur les données scientifiques disponibles en date du premier semes- tre 2001.

  • Information to Users
    INFORMATION TO USERS This manuscript has been reproduced from the microfilm master. UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction. In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted. Also, if unauthorized copyright material had to be removed, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, charts) are reproduced by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand corner and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each original is also photographed in one exposure and is included in reduced form at the back of the book. Photographs included in the original manuscript have been reproduced xerographically in this copy. Higher quality 6" x 9" black and white photographic prints are available for any photographs or illustrations appearing in this copy for an additional charge. Contact UMI directly to order.
