Abstract
Human exposure to organophosphorus (OP) pesticides is a serious health challenge. We conducted a systematic review by searching international and national databases for published literature on any human exposure to OPs in Iran from 1990 to March 2015. Qualified papers were in two categories including studies in which biomarkers of exposure were assessed (n = 13; total no. of subjects = 759) and studies that had reported prevalence of OPs-induced poisoning (OPP) and mortality (n = 26; total no. of subjects = 5428). The mean level of activity of acetyl-cholinesterase and butyryl-cholinesterase were 68.65% and 74.2%, respectively. Overall proportion (%) of OPP was estimated (16; 95% CI, 14 to 19).
期刊介绍：
Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part C: Environmental Carcinogenesis and Ecotoxicology Reviews aims at rapid publication of reviews on important subjects in various areas of environmental toxicology, health and carcinogenesis. Among the subjects covered are risk assessments of chemicals including nanomaterials and physical agents of environmental significance, harmful organisms found in the environment and toxic agents they produce, and food and drugs as environmental factors. It includes basic research, methodology, host susceptibility, mechanistic studies, theoretical modeling, environmental and geotechnical engineering, and environmental protection. Submission to this journal is primarily on an invitational basis. All submissions should be made through the Editorial Manager site, and are subject to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. Please review the instructions for authors for manuscript submission guidance.
