Neuropsychological function in school-age children with low mercury exposures

Summary
Hair Hg levels below 1.0 μg/g in US school-age children were not adversely related to neuropsychological function and test scores of children with hair Hg levels ≥ 1.0 μg/g appeared to be lower than those of children with levels < 1.0 μg/g, but few children had levels in this upper range and these differences did not reach statistical significance.
