Abstract

Metal smelting has the potential to release micro-sized metal particles into the air. One of the metal smelting household industries is the gamelan industry. Brass is the basic material for making gamelan with a lead (Pb) content of 0.46%. In the process of making this gamelan, gamelan craftsmen will have a risk of exposure to Pb particles. Absorbed lead will be transported in the organs of the body as much as 95%, in the blood lead will be bound by erythrocytes and will interfere with the formation of hemoglobin. This study aims to see the relationship between Pb levels and the blood profile of metal forging workers in the gamelan industry, Wirun Mojolaban Village, Sukoharjo. This research is a quantitative, observational study with a sample size of 35 gamelan craftsmen in Wirun Village, Mojolaban Sukoharjo. The examination of Pb levels was carried out at BLK Jogja with GFAAS, while the examination of hemoglobin, leukocytes, platelets, hematocrit, and erythrocytes was carried out in the clinical laboratory. The results showed that there was no relationship between Pb levels in the blood and the number of hemoglobin, leukocytes, platelets, hematocrit, and erythrocytes. Although gamelan craftsmen are exposed to lead, they have not shown any symptoms of poisoning and have no blood disorders.

Abstract

Lead is widely found in the environment and it is a heavy metal element that has a neurotoxic effect. Unlike other elements, lead does not provide its benefits in the human body. Neurotoxicity describes the neurophysiological changes caused by exposure to toxic agents, which can be manifested by changes in various functions of the nervous system. The aim of this research was to examine the associations between high school students' lead hair levels, intelligence quotient (IQ) scores, propensities for antisocial behavior, and hand grip strength. This research used canonical correlation analysis. Lead levels were detection by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). Antisocial behavior tendency data was measured using a 21-item antisocial tendency scale using the aspects listed in diagnostic statistical mental disorder (DSM) V which had previously been tested for validity and the reliability. The IQ level was measured using the Wechsler adult intelligence scale (WAIS) test, while the hand muscle strength test was measured using a hand grip dynamometer. Based on the results of the canonical correlation analysis, the research results showed that there was no correlation between lead levels in hair and antisocial behavior tendencies, but there was a relationship between lead levels in hair and IQ levels and hand muscle strength.

Abstract

Lead exposure is a persistent environmental health concern that can impair cognitive function in adolescents. Therefore, this study aims to examine the association between acute and chronic lead exposure and intelligence quotient (IQ) scores among Indonesian adolescents. A cross-sectional study was carried out involving 39 adolescents who were chosen through purposive sampling. Acute exposure was assessed using blood lead levels(n = 15), while chronic exposure was evaluated with hair lead levels(n = 24). IQ was measured using WAIS administered by a licensed psychologist, while associations between the variables were examined utilizing the Chi-square test. The results revealed that chronic lead exposure was significantly linked to below-average IQ (OR = 1.90; 95% CI: 1.07-3.36), while acute exposure had a weaker relationship (OR = 0.35; 95% CI: 0.13-0.89; p = 0.022). These results indicated the importance of long-term environmental exposure control.

Abstract

Lead contamination in pesticides poses a serious threat to health due to its bioaccumulative and toxic properties to various organ systems, including the nervous, hormonal, and cardiovascular systems. This study aims to determine the relationship between blood lead levels and blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), and handgrip strength in rice farmers in Tlingsing Village, Cawas District, Klaten Regency. This analytical study used a cross-sectional design with a sample of 24 rice farmers. Venous blood samples were taken using 3 cc EDTA vacuum tubes and examined for lead levels using the Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (GFAAS) method at BBLK Yogyakarta. Blood pressure was measured using an Omron 7120 digital sphygmomanometer, BMI using a HN 289 digital scale and a GEA SH2A stature meter, and hand strength using a Camry EH101 electronic hand dynamometer. Data analysis was carried out using a bivariate correlation test at a 95% confidence level (p=0.05). The results showed that blood lead levels were significantly associated with blood pressure (p=0.028), with a percentage of stage 1 hypertension of 50.0% and hypertensive crisis of 45.8%. Lead levels were not significantly associated with BMI (p=0.082), with 29.2% of participants classified as overweight and 8.3% as obese. There was no significant association with hand grip strength (p=0.360), with 20.8% of participants classified as having medium strength and 33.3% as having low strength.

Abstract

The production of paint involves the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and heavy metals, which can impact health. Gender differences play a significant role in toxicokinetics and toxicodynamics. Variations in sex hormones, xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes, and distribution volumes influence the body's response to toxins. This study aims to investigate biochemical parameters—including ALP, AST, ALT, Gamma-GT, total cholesterol, creatinine, cholinesterase, total bilirubin, fasting glucose, N Urea, eLFG, and uric acid—in paint industry workers, stratified by gender. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted on 89 workers engaged in production, research and development, and logistics within a paint manufacturing facility. Demographic data were obtained via questionnaires, and laboratory test results were analyzed. Statistical evaluation was performed using the chi-square test to determine the association between gender and biochemical abnormalities, with an odds ratio (OR), 95% confidence interval (CI), and significance level set at p<0.05. The assessment of paint exposure among workers, based on biochemical test results stratified by gender, demonstrated that gender significantly influences these parameters (p<0.05). The findings of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (OR: 7.500, 95% CI: 1.146–49.100), total cholesterol (OR: 3.841, 95% CI: 1.142–12.916), and creatinine (OR: 30.179, 95% CI: 7.706–118.193) suggest that exposure to paint substances impacts liver function (as indicated by ALP), total cholesterol, and renal function (creatinine). These outcomes may be attributed to physiological, hormonal, enzymatic, and genetic differences between male and female individuals in their toxicological responses, as supported by biochemical examination results.

Abstract

Batik home industry waste not managed with standardized WWTP can lead to environmental pollution. This is caused by the remaining synthetic batik dyes containing heavy metal lead. The remaining dyeing waste is disposed of into the river, a water source in the surrounding environment. Waste containing heavy metals causes a neurotoxic effect on the human body. Furthermore, exposure to heavy metals due to synthetic batik dyes is more at risk for workers who do coloring since they do not use personal protective equipment while working and do not live a clean and healthy lifestyle. One of the behavioral disorders associated with the effects of accumulated lead exposure is an antisocial personality disorder. In this study, blood lead levels were checked for batik dye workers by taking blood samples using a 3 ml purple vacuum tube and placing them in an ice box to be sent to the Yogyakarta Health Laboratory Center (BLK). The blood sample was then wet destroyed, and the Pb levels were read using an AAS tool. Antisocial tendency scale data was measured using STAB (Subtypes of Antisocial Behavior), where the validity test had previously been carried out with the Pearson product-moment of 0.327-0.786 and the reliability test with the Cronbach alpha technique of 0.936. The results of the data analysis showed a correlation between blood lead levels and antisocial disorder tendencies of 0.690, but no correlation was found between blood lead levels and body mass index (BMI)
