    abstract = "Lead poisoning remains a common environmental threat for children today
The majority of cases of lead poisoning are caused by oral intake of
lead dust or lead-containing paint flakes and thus occur during the
second and third years of life. An unusual case of severe lead poisoning
in a breast-feeding infant girl is here presented; the source proved to
be a nipple shield made of a lead-containing metal. Despite the severity
of the intoxication, by the end of treatment and for a year afterwards
the infant has been well and her psychokinetic development has been
normal."
