We examined the association between residential proximity to 60 Hz high voltage (22-500 kV) overhead transmission lines (HVOTLs) and mental health (MH). The subjects were 223 mothers with a mean age of 37 years. The distance from the subject's residence to the closest HVOTL was measured on a map. MH status was assessed by the SF-36 Health Survey, which was scored on a 0-100 point scale, and an individual with a score of 52 points or less was defined as having poor MH. Logistic regression models were used to examine the association between the distance from the subjects' residence to the closest HVOTL and MH status. The prevalence of poor MH was 15%. Among the 223 subjects, 10 lived within 100 m of a HVOTL. The adjusted odds ratios (OR) for poor MH among those who lived 101-300 m or within 100 m from HVOTL were 1.29 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.35-10.13) and 1.87 (95% CI: 0.35-10.13), respectively, against the reference category (300+ m). MH status was not significantly associated with the distance between the subject's residence and the closest HVOTL.
我们研究了居住在距离60赫兹高压(22 - 500千伏)架空输电线路(HVOTL)较近区域与心理健康(MH)之间的关联。研究对象为223名平均年龄37岁的母亲。在地图上测量了研究对象住所到最近HVOTL的距离。通过SF - 36健康调查评估心理健康状况,该调查的评分范围是0 - 100分,得分52分及以下的个体被定义为心理健康状况不佳。使用逻辑回归模型来研究研究对象住所到最近HVOTL的距离与心理健康状况之间的关联。心理健康状况不佳的患病率为15%。在这223名研究对象中,有10人居住在距离HVOTL 100米以内。与参照类别(300米以上)相比,居住在距离HVOTL 101 - 300米或100米以内的人群心理健康状况不佳的调整优势比(OR)分别为1.29(95%置信区间(CI):0.35 - 10.13)和1.87(95% CI:0.35 - 10.13)。研究对象的住所与最近HVOTL之间的距离与心理健康状况并无显著关联。
