A couple people have requested that I repost some of the Internet addresses that I posted a while back. Here goes.... ----------------------- ABOUT ATSDR CASE STUDIES IN ENVIRONMENTAL MEDICINE ATSDR (Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry), Public Health Service, US Department of Health & Human Services publishes a series of self-instructional materials designed to increase the primary care provider's knowledge of hazardous substances in the environment and aid in the evaluation of potentially exposed patients. When the publications are ordered directly from ATSDR and the self-training requirements are completed, continuing medical education credits and continuing education units can be earned. Each document has a designated technical editor, and a named peer-review committee. Documents already published include: Taking an exposure history Skin lesions and environmental exposures (rash decisions) Reproductive and developmental hazards Ionizing radiation Chemical Toxicity Arsenic toxicity Asbestos toxicity Benzene toxicity Beryllium toxicity Cadmium toxicity Carbon tetrachloride toxicity Chlordane toxicity Cholinesterase-inhibiting pesticide toxicity Chromium toxicity Cyanide toxicity Dioxin toxicity Gasoline toxicity Jet fuel toxicity Lead toxicity Mercury toxicity Methanol toxicity Methylene chloride toxicity Nitrate/nitrite toxicity Pentachlorophenol toxicity Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) toxicity Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) toxicity Radon toxicity Stoddard solvent toxicity Tetrachloroethylene toxicity Toluene toxicity 1,1,1-Trichloroethane toxicity Trichloroethylene toxicity Vinyl chloride toxicity The online versions of these documents will be available in this gopher in the near future. Until then, they can be obtained in hard copy from: Continuing Education Coordinator ATSDR Division of Health Education, E33 1600 Clifton Road, NE Atlanta, GA 30333 November 1994 . ---------------------- Here's some other discussion groups and/or World Wide Web (WWW) sites for info that I've found relating to holistic/alternative health and/or general health/medicine: (Holisitic Health) to subscribe send e-mail to: [log in to unmask] or to [log in to unmask] include the following command in the text of the message: SUB HOLISTIC firstname lastname other commands: HELP INDEX HOLISTIC (to get a listing of filenames and past discussion logs) GET filename (Homeopathy) to subscribe send e-mail to: [log in to unmask] with the subject: subscribe to send message and contributions to the list: [log in to unmask] (University of Pennsylvania Neurology Dept.)
