title: [Fluoride content of the body and aortic sclerosis--are there correlations?].
abstract: In comparison with a group of persons with and one without chronic exposition to fluorides we stated the incidence of aortic calcifications on X-ray screen photos. As well in female as in male we found in the group with exposition to fluorides a significantly lower percentage of aortic calcifications as in the group without fluoride exposition.
