北京市0～6岁儿童血铅水平与相关影响因素的研究

目的　了解近期北京市 0～ 6岁儿童血铅水平及其影响因素。方法　采取分层整群随机抽样的方法。 2 0 0 1年 5～ 7月调查北京市常住人口中 0～ 6岁儿童 2 2 62名。采用石墨炉原子吸收法进行微量血中铅含量的测定 ,并做相关因素问卷调查。结果　北京市 0～ 6岁儿童血铅水平均值为96.8μg L,血铅值≥ 10 0 μg L为 3 5.7% ,血铅值≥ 2 0 0 μg L为 2 .5%。农村儿童铅中毒为 43 % ,明显高于城区和郊区儿童。 2岁组铅中毒为 45.1%高于其他年龄组。男童血铅平均值 10 0 .2 μg L明显高于女童血铅平均值 93 .0 μg L(P <0 .0 1)。不喝或偶喝牛奶、居室距繁华马路≤ 50m、家庭居住 1层楼房或平房为儿童高血铅的主要危险因素。结论　目前北京市儿童血铅水平≥ 10 0 μg L的比例不容忽视 ,应对重点人群采取行之有效的干预措施

Blood lead level and related risk factors among children aged 0-6 years in Beijing

OBJECTIVE: To observe blood lead level and related risk factors among children of 0 - 6-year old in Beijing. METHODS: Stratified-clustered-random sampling and simple random sampling were used. A total of 2 262 children of 0 - 6 years old were investigated from May to July 2001. They were permanent residents in Beijing. Blood lead level was tested by graphite atomizer absorption spectrophotometer. At the same time, related factors were investigated using a standardized questionnaire. RESULTS: The mean lead level of children in Beijing was 96.8 micro g/L with 35.7% of those >/= 100 micro g/L, and 2.5% >/= 200 micro g/L. The proportion of lead poisoning was significantly higher in rural children (P < 0.01). The proportion of lead poisoning in 2-year-old group was higher than that in other age groups. The proportion of lead poisoning in boys was significantly higher than that in girls (P < 0.01). The following factors might serve as major risk factors related to child lead poisoning, such as, never or rarely drinking milk, living in nearby highways (less than 50 meters) or living in the first floor/bungalow, and so on. CONCLUSION: The blood lead level of >/= 100 micro g/L among Beijing children appeared to be a big problem. Decision-makers should pay more attention to prevent blood lead level being high, and to cure these children who suffered in lead poisoning. Effective intervention measures on these target populations should be taken.
