TL;DR: Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis of variance revealed that the pairs differed on symptom reporting, emotional state, motor functions, cognitive flexibility, and olfactory perception threshold, which is consistent with current knowledge on brain Mn activity.

Early Manifestations of Manganese Neurotoxicity in Humans: An Update
TL;DR: Results from individual studies show a pattern of slowing motor functions, increased tremor, reduced response speed, enhanced olfactory sense, possible memory and intellectual deficits, and mood changes that are consistent with the action of manganese on the central nervous system.

Bioindicator and exposure data for a population based study of manganese.
TL;DR: Geographic analysis of the MnB and MnW data by an algorithm grouping contiguous postal code zones, combined with air data, lead to definition of a geographic parameter, distinguishing two regions relative to a former manganese alloy plant, which contributed significantly to MnB.

Neurobehavioral functioning after cessation of manganese exposure: a follow-up after 14 years.
TL;DR: Mn exposure was associated with persistent deficits for certain neuromotor functions, cognitive flexibility, and adVerse mood states, while recovery occurred for other functions.

Neuropsychiatric symptoms and past manganese exposure in a ferro-alloy plant.
TL;DR: It is suggested that past exposure to Mn may have lasting consequences on neuropsychiatric symptoms, with significant associations for the scales Somatization, Depression, Anxiety and Hostility.
