Evaluation of oxidative stress, blood parameters, and neurocognitive status in cement factory workers

The current investigation was aimed to evaluate the oxidative stress (OS), blood factors, and neurocognitive state among cement factory workers who are exposed to dust during their work. Totally 41 cement exposed workers and 41 subjects as a control group were selected, and their OS, biochemical parameters, and a neurocognitive questionnaire were assessed. The results indicated that the levels of triglyceride, alanine aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase were higher among the exposed workers. The rate of lipid peroxidation and total antioxidant capacity were not significantly differenced among the workers while compared to the control groupsem informaçã
