Disorders of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in children consuming drinking water of a non-normative quality

Abstract

Clinical and laboratory investigation of violations of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in children consuming drinking water of non-normative quality on content of organochlorine compounds. Children with elevated blood concentrations of chloroform and carbon tetrachloride, endocrine pathology are diagnosed 2.1 times more likely, the relative risk of developing obesity (E66.0) and excess supply (E67.8) is by 2.7 times higher than in the comparison group. There was found a causal relationship between the development of overweight children with a high content of chloroform in blood. Negative effects of organochlorines (chloroform, carbon tetrachloride) manifested by dysfunction of the hypothalamic-adrenal and pituitary-thyroid system, the activation offree radical oxidation and the accumulation ofperoxidation products, overvoltage and resource depletion of antioxidant defense, and violation of neurotransmitter processes was found to be followed by dysregulation offat and carbohydrate exchange. There were identified markers of disorders of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in the conditions of exposure to chloroform and carbon tetrachloride.
