Eleven of 42 toluene inhalers were evaluated with computed tomography scans because of neurologic abnormalities. Six of the 11 were found to have cerebral cortical atrophy. In addition, two of the six had cerebellar atrophy. All six had been exposed to toluene for at least 10 years. This study suggests that atrophy of the central nervous system may occur in chronic toluene abusers.
42名甲苯吸入者中有11人因神经功能异常接受了计算机断层扫描评估。11人中6人被发现有大脑皮质萎缩。此外,这6人中2人有小脑萎缩。所有6人接触甲苯至少10年。这项研究表明,慢性甲苯滥用者可能会出现中枢神经系统萎缩。
