- BookHarvey S. Singer, Jonathan Mink, Donal Gilbert, Joseph Jankovic.Summary: "Movement Disorders in Childhood, Third Edition provides the most up-to-date information on the diseases and disorders that affect motor control, an important area of specialization within child neurology. In this new edition, each chapter has been fully revised to include all of the latest scientific and therapeutic advances. Updates include new insights in motor development, control, goal-directed and habitual behaviors, classifications of movements and their complex and integrated circuitry. The authors also discuss developments in pathophysiologic mechanisms, immunology and metabolic disorders. New chapters include coverage of genetics of movement disorders and movement disorders in psychiatric conditions. Appendices include an updated and revised drug index and genetic search strategy. An updated Companion website hosts selected educational videos to help diagnose movement disorders" -- publisher's description.Digital Access ClinicalKey 2022
- ArticleMorita M.Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 1977 Jun;1(1):1-6.Chlorinated benzenes are composed of twelve chemical species: one mono-, three di-, three tri-, three tetra-, one penta-, and one hexachlorobenzene. Most of these are not only important intermediates for various kinds of chemicals but are also extensively employed for various applications singly or in combination. For example, 1,4-dichlorobenzene is used chiefly against termites in soil; trichlorobenzenes are used as solvents for pesticides and also as heat transfer agents with PCBs; the mixture of trichlorobenzene and tetrachlorobenzene is applied in controlling shellfish predators; and hexachlorobenzene is applied to wheat as a fungicide in some countries and as an additive to rubber products. The annual production (1973) of monochlorobenzene, 1,2-dichlorobenzene, and 1,4-dichlorobenzene in Japan was about 23,000, 9000, and 20,000, tons, respectively. Production volumes of other chlorinated benzenes are not well known but are assumed to be smaller than those of the above three compounds. The total annual production of chlorinated benzenes far surpasses the peak production of PCBs (7000 tons/year) which are known as a ubiquitous pollutant in this country. Since chlorinated benzenes have a chemical structure and properties similar to those of PCBs and PCTs, it seemed necessary to direct our attention to environmental contamination by these materials. The present paper describes only the occurrence and the fate of these materials. Toxicity and biological impact are not referred to here.
