BACKGROUND
-A study to assess lead exposure of traveller children aged from 9 months to 18 years old was conducted in Charente-France between 2017 and 2019.
METHODS
A face-to-face questionnaire was administered to each participating family (N = 78). Blood samples were collected, and in case of lead poisoning, an environmental survey of soil, dust and water samples was also performed.
RESULTS
-Among the 100 children, they were 39 girls and 61 boys. Among them, 40 suffered from lead poisoning (Blood Lead Level ≥50 μg/L). Being a boy aged between 11 and 14 years old, and participating in lead exposure at-risk activities were significantly associated with higher mean blood lead level.
CONCLUSION
-The high levels of lead detected advocate the reinforcement of lead poisoning screening for all children in the traveller population.
背景
2017年至2019年期间，在法国夏朗德省开展了一项评估9个月至18岁旅行儿童铅暴露情况的研究。
方法
对每个参与家庭（N = 78）进行面对面问卷调查。采集血样，若发生铅中毒，则对土壤、灰尘和水样进行环境调查。
结果
在100名儿童中，有39名女孩和61名男孩。其中，40名儿童患有铅中毒（血铅水平≥50μg/L）。年龄在11至14岁之间的男孩以及参与有铅暴露风险活动与较高的平均血铅水平显著相关。
结论
检测到的高铅水平表明，需要加强对旅行人群中所有儿童的铅中毒筛查。
