Skeletal Fluorosis from Brewed Tea [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2011
Abstract Background: High fluoride ion (F−) levels are found in many surface and well waters. Drinking F−-contaminated water typically explains endemic skeletal fluorosis (SF). In some regions of Asia, however, poor quality “brick tea” also causes this disorder. The plant source of brick, black, green,

Abnormal methylation of Mill1 gene regulates osteogenic differentiation involved in various phenotypes of skeletal fluorosis in rats and methionine intervention

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Excessive fluoride intake can lead to skeletal fluorosis. Nutritional differences in the same fluoride-exposed environment result in osteosclerosis, osteoporosis, and osteomalacia.

Evaluation of factors associated with adult skeletal fluorosis in coal-burning type of endemic fluorosis and initial screening model based on machine learning in Guizhou, Southwest China

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Skeletal fluorosis caused by coal-burning type endemic fluorosis greatly affects the health of the population in the affected areas, but large-scale diagnostic work is limited by human and material resources, making it difficult to implement ...

Trend-analysis of dental hard-tissue conditions as function of tooth age [PDF]

, 2018
Objective This retrospective in-vitro study investigated tooth age effect on dental hard-tissue conditions. Methods Unidentified extracted premolars (n = 1500) were collected and their individual age was estimated (10–100 (±10) years old (yo)) using

Antioxidants in the Management of Fluoride Induced Neural Oxidative Stress in Developing Rats [PDF]

, 2014
Fluoride (F) is highly electronegative anion with cumulative toxic effects, from prolonged ingestion that can lead to the pathogenesis known as fluorosis, a condition especially persistent in third world countries, where populations have little choice as

Is There a Role for Sodium Fluoride in Otosclerosis Treatment?

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Various reports have investigated the role of NaF for stabilizing SNHL in the setting of otosclerosis; however, there currently remains no established practice guideline or widespread consensus. The purpose of this paper is to interpret the literature to determine best practices for the use of NaF in otosclerosis management.
