    "Mercury poisoning certainly could explain Lincoln's known neurological symptoms: insomnia, tremor and the rage attacks," said Robert G. Feldman, M.D., professor of neurology, pharmacology, and environmental health at the Boston University Schools of Medicine and Public Health, an expert on heavy metal poisoning and co-author of the paper.

    Dr. Robert G. Feldman, professor of neurology, pharmacology and environmental health at Boston University, is very skeptical that a bacterium is the cause of Parkinson's.If bacteria commonly found in the soil were to blame, many more people would have Parkinson's, he says.

    Also, he says many environmental substances, including lead, manganese, iron and some pesticides, can cause changes in brain chemistry.The key to unlocking the mystery of Parkinson's is to determine the genetic factors that interfere with the mechanisms that protect the brain against such environmental assaults, he says.

    "The bottom line is: I wouldn't get too excited about it [the study].There is increasing evidence that genes determine an individual's likelihood of developing Parkinson's and other related conditions," Feldman says.

    Such experts included immunologist Dr. Alan Levin, (believing that exposure to TCE damages plaintiffs' immune systems) immunopathologist Dr. Robert Colvin, (believing to a reasonable medical certainty that the TCE caused or substantially contributed to immune dysfunction and leukemia) neurologist Robert Feldman, (finding that every plaintiff had a slower than normal functioning of the trigeminal nerve) and Dr. Vera Byers (stating that long term exposure to TCE impaired the plaintiffs' immune systems).

    ALS - [Cached Version]
    Published on: 1/27/2001    Last Visited: 6/9/2004  

    Dr. Robert Feldman, a professor of neurology at the Boston University School of Medicine, has worked for almost two decades on a puzzling cluster of ALS cases in Middleborough, Mass. Over the last 30 years, residents say the disease has killed as many as 24 people who lived within a six-block radius - a striking number for a town of 22,000.

    Suspicion surrounds two local companies whose past dumping practices are under investigation by several groups, including the Environmental Protection Agency.Some residents believe a metal plating firm and a chemical company are to blame for ALS cases there.

    Feldman acknowledged the Massachusetts cluster holds some parallels to the Kelly situation.But he cautioned that even after years of research, he has not found enough evidence to show that the number of ALS cases in Middleborough is statistically significant.

    "I wouldn't say it's significant, but it's definitely a trend of concern," he said, noting he plans to expand his study because the suspected tally of cases has risen from 11 to 24 since his work was published.

    Feldman said he suspects his hypothesis about the possible cause of the Middleborough cluster also could apply to the Kelly AFB cases.It centers on genotoxicity, the theory that exposure to certain environmental toxins - such as pesticides or heavy metals - can damage the DNA, or genetic sequences, of susceptible individuals.

    The damage can result in a genetic mutation that alters the ability of enzymes to break down chemicals, contributing to the death of nerve cells, said Feldman, who directs Boston University's Environmental and Occupational Neurology Program.
