  • Title: [Biochemical indicators of carbohydrate and energy metabolism in the Chorzów population after long-term exposure to industrial pollutants].
    Author: Kedryna T, Marchut E, Gumińska M.
    Journal: Folia Med Cracov; 1991; 32(1-2):95-102. PubMed ID: 1843706.
    Abstract:
    In three groups of Chorzów inhabitants, living in the most polluted industrial environment, elevated blood lactate and glucose levels, as well as diminished blood ATP level pointed to disturbances in carbohydrate and energy metabolism. In spite of the exposition of people studied to many toxic substances from polluted environment (fluorides, lead and others), a decrease in ATP level was less expressed than in earlier investigated inhabitants of Skawina, exposed to fluorides from the Aluminium Plant, which was probably connected with greater supply of magnesium salts from food and water.
