“…In a follow-up study on the same children (1975), the authors found continuing evidence of neurological damage and a greatly in creased rate of school failure and school problems. Although these and other case-referent studies done in the 1970s matched cases and controls by race and other social and economic variables (de la Burde and Choate 1975; Kotok et al 1977;Rummo 1974), these studies were mainly criti cized for their lack of control of confounding background variables (Rutter 1980;Ernhart et al 1981;Harvey et al 1984;Smith 1985). Perino and Ernhart (1974) also found neurobehavioral deficits in chil dren whose lead levels ranged from 40 to 70 /tg/dL; however, when these data were reanalyzed to control for various methodological prob lems, they failed to show statistically significant differences between high-and low-lead children.…”

“…Lansdown et al (1974) and McNeil et al (1975) did not find deficits at school age, and Kotok et al (1977) attributed the deficits they found to preexisting factors. Conversely, Albert et al (1974), Rummo (1974), and de la Burde and Choate (1975) did find deficits at school age which they attributed to lead.…”

“…Chronic exposure to lead during development results in more subtle abnormalities of behavior and fine motor control [4, 13,221. To understand the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying these abnormalities, investigators have tried to develop models in which exposure to lead occurred during the period of CNS development.…”
