Bibliographic review Exposición a la contaminación antropogénica por mercurio y sus efectos en la salud. Revisión Bibliográfica. Exposição à contaminação antrópica por mercúrio e seus efeitos na saúde. Revisão bibliográfica. López Turcios, Rosa Inés Chamizo-García, Horacio Alejandro mercury exposure; environmental epidemiology; health effects exposición al mercurio; epidemiología ambiental; efectos en la salud Design: A bibligraphic review was carried out without meta-analysis of scientific research published between 2015 and 2021, in journals retrieved from Scopus and Science Direct. Objective: to provide scientific evidence on exposure to mercury and its effects on health from published scientific research. Materials and methods: The standardized search steps referring to the guide of the Spanish Association of Nursing in Palliative Care (AECPAL) were followed; In addition, the validity and precision of each article was verified, making complementary use of a version adapted from GRADE to observational studies. Results: Very high blood mercury concentrations were found in workers in the gold industry and fluorescent lamps, ranging from 13.16µg/L to 54.05µg/L. Teratogenic effects associated with fetal death, congenital anomaly, spontaneous delivery and growth restriction are indicated, and in the occupationally exposed population they were cognitive deterioration, hypercholesteremia, infertility, autism and neural tube defects. Conclusions: The concentration values of mercury in blood and its effects on health are notably variable among the studies, but the main social activities that involve exposure and its associated effects have been evidenced. Diseño: Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica sin meta-análisis de investigaciones científicas publicadas entre los años 2015 y 2021, en revistas recuperadas de Scopus y Science Direct. Objetivo: aportar evidencia científica sobre la exposición al mercurio y sus efectos en la salud a partir de investigaciones científicas publicadas. Materiales y métodos: Se siguieron los pasos estandarizados de búsqueda referentes a la guía de la Asociación Española de Enfermería en Cuidados Paliativos (AECPAL), además, se verificó la validez y la precisión de cada artículo, haciendo uso complementario de una versión adaptada de GRADE a estudios observacionales. Resultados: Se encontraron concentraciones de mercurio en sangre muy altos, en trabajadores de la industria del oro y de lámparas fluorescentes, oscilando entre 13,16µg/L y 54,05µg/L. Se señalan efectos teratógenos asociados a muerte fetal, anomalía congénita, parto espontáneo y restricción en el crecimiento y en la población ocupacionalmente expuestas fueron el deterioro cognitivo, la hipercolesteremia, infertilidad, autismo y defectos en el tubo neural. Conclusiones: los valores de concentración de mercurio en sangre y sus efectos en la salud son notablemente variables entre los estudios, pero se ha evidenciado las principales actividades sociales que implican exposición y sus efectos asociados.
