Abstract:

Introduction: It is known that among the factors which induce the development of cerebrovascular disorders are hypoxia and the impact of toxic substances on the central nervous system, phenol and its derivatives (cresols) belong to the group of highly hazardous substances (category 2). The main sources of anthropogenic phenols are chemicals such as coke and petrochemicals, textiles, pulp and paper industry. Phenols and cresols are able to accumulate in the brain parenchyma. This may lead to the development of cerebrovascular disorders. The objective of this study is to evaluate the patterns of cerebral haemodynamics and cognitive function impairments for children with vegetovascular dystonia associated with exposure of monohydric phenols.

Conclusions: Thus, dysfunction associated with aerogenic phenol and cresol influence is characterized the linear velocity of the blood flow in the cerebral arteries, a low level of audio-verbal memory, the overall mental development and a high degree of anxiety are the effect markers of conditions of phenol and cresol influence. Identified patterns of cognitive, behavioural status and cerebral haemodynamics are recorded on the background of marker deviations of homeostatic parameters concerning phenol in children in the form of increased level of regulatory hormones and cholinergic neurotransmitters (adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol, serotonin and cGMP), increased lipid peroxidation products, activation and consequent depletion of antioxidant blood activity and an increase of MDA concentration. Submitted patterns of cerebral blood flow and cognitive and behavioural functions can be used as an additional criterion of dysfunctions of the central humoral- metabolic mechanisms in children with influence of monohydric phenols.
