Sammanfattning

It is well known that high-level manganese exposure is associated with neurological disorders, but little is known about the health effects following the low-level exposure that may be conferred by metal welding and metal casting. We identified seven cross-sectional and six case-referent studies that examined neurological disorders following occupational manganese exposure. Methodological constraints and inadequate sampling frames impeded our making inferences as to whether long-term low-dose exposure to manganese causes neurological disorders. There is a need for follow-up studies of large populations with appropriate documentation of exposure.
