The population-based cohort study is the best design for assessing the possible health effects resulting fromliving in contaminated sites. The ERAS (Epidemiology,Waste disposal, Environment and Health) Project was established to study the health of people living in close proximity to urban solid waste treatment (RU) plants in Lazio. It was conducted using an integrated approach, which consisted in studying mortality and hospital discharges of residential cohorts surrounding urban waste treatment plants. The level of exposure of each address was assigned using pollution dispersion models and studying the effects on mortality and hospital discharges. Further studies were conducted on residents of areas adjacent to waste disposal sites (includingMalagrotta in Rome), incinerators andmechanical biological treatment plants. The final version of the ERAS Report is available at www.eraslazio.it. The residential cohort approach and the combination of environmental and health-related information proved invaluable in the assessment of the health impact of solid waste treatment in Lazio.
基于人群的队列研究是评估居住在受污染场地可能产生的健康影响的最佳设计。ERAS(流行病学、废物处理、环境与健康)项目旨在研究拉齐奥地区居住在城市固体废物处理(RU)厂附近人群的健康状况。该研究采用综合方法,包括研究城市垃圾处理厂周边居民队列的死亡率和住院率。通过污染扩散模型确定每个地址的暴露水平,并研究其对死亡率和住院率的影响。还对垃圾处理场(包括罗马的马拉格罗塔)、焚烧炉和机械生物处理厂附近地区的居民进行了进一步研究。ERAS报告的最终版本可在www.eraslazio.it上获取。居民队列研究方法以及环境与健康相关信息的结合,在评估拉齐奥地区固体废物处理对健康的影响方面被证明具有极高价值。
