| Summary: | The children’s health is one of the most sensitive indicators of the environmental condition. A clear connection of the structure of the child morbidity with the ecological characteristics of the region of residence has been registered. Thus, the general child morbidity, risk to develop the congenital anomalies, chromosomal and genetic diseases, allergic, chronic neuropsychic, oncological and many other diseases are increased in the environmentally unfriendly regions. The hardest part is to identify and isolate from the multiple factors those chemical, physical or biological agents that affect negatively the human health. It is possible to observe the close connection of the wide range of the demographic and epidemiological indicators with the environmental pollution. However, to determine this connection with the action of the certain environmental, anthropogenic factors or their combinations is rather a challenging task. The lack of a single unified, publicly available sociological, medical and environmental monitoring does not allow to assess to the full extent the medical efficiency of the environmental measures, and, therefore, to justify the preventive measures to reduce the level of the eco-dependent pathology in the children. |
