FLUORIDE: AN EVALUATION AND EVIDENCE ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENTAL METABOLIC AND NEUROLOGICAL CHANGES - EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDY
Ankul Singh, Saima Bashir, Devesh Kumar Joshi, Vivek Pratap SinghFluoride is widely present in our surroundings in a variety of forms and has the potential to adversely affect the biological environment and human health. For teeth and bones to remain healthy, uoride is essential. Although too much uoride might harm an animal's body, it is necessary for animals to grow and develop healthily. The majority of the state's groundwater is either salty or contains signicant levels of uoride and nitrates. The neurological system is primarily affected by uoride's harmful effects on the body. Numerous research conducted recently have demonstrated that uoride might be harmful to macrophages and other immune system components. The kidney, liver, and heart are the delicate tissues that are most vulnerable to uoride poisoning. Fluoride toxicity researchers have recently become interested in free radicals and oxidative stress. Cognitive decline, compromised neuronal and cerebrovascular integrity, and metabolic abnormalities are all examples of uoride's neurotoxicity. The toxicity of uoride large quantities of certain uoride salts can be harmful to the skin or eyes, and soluble uoride salts are toxic in large concentrations. Age range: 07–14 years old In comparison with the control participants, the uoride content in the serum was considerably (p<0.001) higher in the severe subjects (519%), moderate subjects (320%), and mild subjects (140%). Between the ages of 15 and 45, the blood uoride content was considerably (p<0.001) higher in the severe group (5172%), moderate group (268%), and mild group (165%). topics under control. Age range: 46–75 years old When compared to the control subjects, the severe subjects had signicantly (p<0.001) higher serum uoride concentrations (694%), followed by moderate subjects (432%) and mild subjects (240%).
