- W2003994105 abstract "Toxic and essential metals have been implicated in the pathogenesis of sporadic motor neuron disease (SMND), but attempts to measure blood levels of these metals have led to contradictory results. We, therefore, measured blood levels of various metals using paired SMND/controls. In 20 subjects with SMND (15 males, five females, mean age 56.8 years) and 20 partner controls (15 females, five males, mean age 55.0 years) cadmium, lead, mercury, copper, zinc and selenium levels were measured in blood, plasma and red cells with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and manganese levels with atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Results were analysed using non-parametric tests. Hypo-osmotic red blood cellfragility was estimated in six SMND/control pairs to see if hemolysis could account for increased metal levels. The plasma cadmium level was significantly raised in SMND cases (P = 0.005), but with considerable overlap between SMND and controls. No other metal levels were significantly different, though plasma lead in SMND had a tendency to be higher than controls. No difference in red cell fragility was found between groups. In conclusion, plasma levels of cadmium were raised in this SMND group, but the biological significance of this is uncertain. The measurement of metals in the blood of SMND cases seems unwarrranted for routine diagnostic testing." @default.
