  • Title: Serum thyroxine in the early diagnosis of carbon disulfide poisoning.
    Author: Cavalleri A.
    Journal: Arch Environ Health; 1975 Feb; 30(2):85-7. PubMed ID: 1115532.
    Abstract:
    Serum thyroxine and blood lipids were assayed in 45 subjects exposed to carbon disulfide (CS2). A highly significant statistical reduction of thyroxine in relation to the exposure time was found and the levels appeared lower in the subjects with retinal vessel alterations. A significant interrelation between cholesterol and serum thyroxine was also evidenced. Serum thyroxine assay is suggested as a reliable test in the early diagnosis of CS2 poisoning.
