Abstract

Background: DENTAL STAFF may be at increased risk of adverse PREGNANCY OUTCOME secondary to their chronic exposure to mercury.Objective: To investigate obstetric outcome among DENTAL STAFF and explore the OXIDATIVE STRESS induced by mercury exposure.Methods: A cohort of 64 pregnant DENTAL STAFF (exposed group) and 60 pregnant employees (non-exposed group) were studied. Urinary mercury level and blood antioxidant activity were measured. Participants were followed to assess their obstetric outcome.Results: The exposed group had a higher mean urinary mercury level and a lower blood antioxidant activity during the three trimesters compared to non-exposed group (p<0.001). Women in the exposed group were experienced more frequently spontaneous abortion and pre-eclampsia (p<0.05). Babies born to the women in the exposed group tended to be smaller for gestational age compared to those of non-exposed group (p<0.001).Conclusion: Pregnant DENTAL STAFF suffered higher odds of developing spontaneous abortion and pre-eclampsia and giving birth to babies smaller for gestational age. This may be linked to OXIDATIVE STRESS induced by exposure to mercury.
