Gee. I guess that is one way of avoiding the reality that someone with a peak exposure of 80ug/dl would be measured in the plausible scenario...
As to your (sarcastically made) point regarding challenging the UN, I frequently challenge them. As an example (this relates to their involvement...
I'm also curious as to the level of your mathematical understanding. So I have a fundamental question for you. If a child consumes a number of...
For Africa, I'm thinking a bit less---lead is not the only significant factor, as I indicated here before. Anyhow, one mistake I made above---the...
Sure. A bit of context first---I intend to reinterpret the NHANES data using their distribution data (e.g. number with 10-15ug/dl, etc.). Now,...
I'll try to find that reference. As to lead smelters, my suspicion (I've only started to set up the differential equations to estimate the missed...
I would like to criticize on one count my previous post (re in utero lead). I suggested that calcium deficiency would account for the very high...
Right. Or something like that. I don't have the data for USA, because it wasn't published. I provided the Nigerian data. Rayznack provided the...
I promised mikemikev some South African data, but I've not had the time to find all my sources---the murder sources are missing, and I have only...
Geophagia and lead (defined by the compilers as pica---I'll leave my snide comments to myself...):...
I apologise for the inordinate delay; I tend not to be too active when saddled with double pneumonia. At least I got some reading done......
South African murder rate jump above lead-malnutrition trend, 1995-2002. I could post the spreadsheet and data sources on monday, when I have...
US foods were fortified with calcium starting around 1992: http://www.fao.org/docrep/w7336t/w7336t06.htm Blacks are generally lactose...
1. South Africa and unemployment: The apartheid government had a 'training' program, that worked through 55 "regional training centres," for the...
You seem to be arguing that lead and unemployment as predictor variables are patently absurd. Please enumerate the problems with these predictor...
For which period is it higher? 70s Europe versus 2000s Asia, right? I don't know. Race is an easy way out, but it tells very little. The Flynn...
Thanks for the reference. The 15ug/dl would be in utero as well, as it was an adult score. I'd be curious to see the infant levels. As it is...
The bit I could see from the google books was all per litre [EDIT: was 'dl'], so if I'm in error, my apologies. Usage rates (all skin whitening...
What are the g-loadings for abstract reasoning, vis-a-vis reaction-time, vis-a-vis working memory?
Thanks for the reference. I think those are per litre, not decilitre, though.
The higher lead levels for boys versus girls (the damage is largely in infancy---adult blood lead levels tell little) is fairly small, and may...
Which period? Which blacks? US blacks around the early to mid 70s would have had substantially higher blood lead (gm on the order of 15ug/dl,...
Umm, so to the extent that the IQ differences between blacks and whites are g-loaded, Blacks have higher g for the same IQ?...
You are again confusing crime with IQ. Lead will reduce IQ---I'll post some references below. That said, proportionally far more blacks lived...
Who says that MZ twins aren't diverged? I'm pointing out sources of variance. Another matter---assuming that the numbers I could find (66% MZ, 33%...
Separate names with a comma.
