Using data from a study of 294 children living in Mexico City, investigators found a disturbing link between low-level lead exposure and neurodevelopment--the higher the children's blood lead levels at 24 months of age, the lower their scores on tests of mental and psychomotor development. Furthermore, these effects were greater among children whose lead levels were below 10 micrograms per deciliter than among children with lead levels above this threshold. (7) These results suggest that the current screening guideline for blood lead developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention should not be interpreted as a level at which adverse effects do not occur.
