“…Tuppurainen et al [15] and Refowitz [17] reported no relationship between blood lead levels and T4 or fT4, as well as no thyroid abnormalities in subjects who were exposed to lead. Our fT3 and fT4 results are in agreement with these studies.…”

“…Sandstead's study in 1969 [14] confirmed the results of that early study. Tuppurainen et al [15] suggested that lead has effects on both peripheral thyroid hormone levels and on thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels. More recently, Singh et al [7] showed adverse effects of lead on the pituitary-thyroid axis.…”

“…45 Os efeitos endócrinos da exposição ao chumbo não são muito evidentes clinicamente. Diversos estudos investigaram possível relação dessa exposição com função tireoidiana em populações adultas expostas ocupacionalmente a altas doses 46,47 e de crianças. 48,49 Os estudos em adultos mostraram apenas uma fraca correlação negativa entre duração da exposição e ní-veis de T 4 total e T 4 livre, embora não tenham demonstrado correlação com níveis de plumbemia, apesar das elevadas médias de PbS (56 µg/dl em um estudo, e 51 µg/dl em outro).…”

“…showed that serum T 4 , FT 4 , T 3 , and TSH levels were similar in subgroups of 93 workers with PbB ≤56 μg/dL and 83 workers with PbB ≥56 μg/dL (Tuppurainen et al 1988). Regression analysis found no significant correlations between PbB and any of the thyroid measures.…”
