IntroductionInvestigations of the effects of occupational exposure to lead on the concentrations of thyroid hormones in the blood have not produced consistent results. A meta-analysis was performed to assess the effect of occupational exposure to lead on thyroid hormone concentrations using the results from published studies.MethodsGroup means from studies of the thyroid function of persons occupationally exposed to lead were used in a meta-analysis. Differences between the control and exposed groups, and the slopes between thyroid hormone concentrations and log10 blood lead concentrations or duration of exposure to lead were estimated using mixed models. The hormones analyzed were thyroid stimulating hormone, total and free thyroxine, and ...
