Cancer mortality trends were examined for the small areas around fourteen nuclear and five non-nuclear facilities in England and Wales. Using routine OPCS mortality data, standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) for these areas were computed for selected causes of death. Changes in the SMRs were then sought by comparing the SMRs for the five years before the facility opened with the period 10 (in some cases 15) years after start-up, and by computing the weighted regression of the SMRs on calendar year. These analyses indicate no overall pattern of increasing cancer SMRs around nuclear facilities.
对英格兰和威尔士14个核设施及5个非核设施周边的小区域的癌症死亡率趋势进行了研究。利用英国人口普查与调查局(OPCS)的常规死亡率数据,针对选定的死因计算了这些区域的标准化死亡率(SMR)。然后,通过比较设施开业前五年的SMR与开业后10年(某些情况下为15年)的SMR,并计算SMR随日历年的加权回归,来寻找SMR的变化情况。这些分析表明,核设施周边癌症SMR没有总体上升趋势。
