纽约州卫生部与有毒物质和疾病登记局合作开展了健康渔业社区方案，以评估纽约州西部食用当地捕捞鱼类的人口对安大略湖、伊利湖及周围河流和水道中常见污染物的接触情况。该项目招募了有执照的垂钓者、缅甸难民和移民，他们居住在布法罗河、尼亚加拉河、十八英里河和罗切斯特湾四个指定的五大湖区附近。这些目标人群在2013年2月至10月期间被抽样并独立登记到该计划中。在409名持牌垂钓者和206名缅甸难民和移民的血液和尿液中测量了一组核心污染物，包括铅、镉、汞、多氯联苯、多溴二苯醚、有机氯农药（六氯苯、灭雷、滴滴涕、DDE、氯丹及其代谢物氧氯丹和反式萘草胺）、全氟辛烷磺酸和全氟辛烷磺酸。生物监测结果显示，与2013-2014年NHANES参考水平相比，两组的血铅、总血汞和血清全氟辛烷磺酸的几何平均值均较高。缅甸难民组的肌酐调整尿汞和脂质调整血清DDE的几何平均值也高于全国水平。持牌垂钓者报告说，在过去一年里，他们平均吃了16份本地捕捞的鱼。缅甸参与者全年食用当地鱼类，最常见的是在夏季（平均39次鱼餐或每周3次）。该研究结果为纽约西部大湖盆地暴露于污染物的高风险人群提供了有价值的信息。研究结果为制定和实施公共卫生行动以减少五大湖污染物的潜在暴露提供了基础。
The New York State Department of Health conducted the Healthy Fishing Communities Program in collaboration with the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry to assess human exposure to contaminants common to Lake Ontario, Lake Erie and surrounding rivers and waterways among populations in western New York State who eat locally caught fish. The program enrolled licensed anglers and Burmese refugees and immigrants, living near four designated Great Lakes Areas of Concern: Buffalo River, Niagara River, Eighteenmile Creek, and the Rochester Embayment. These target populations were sampled and enrolled independently into the program between February and October of 2013. A core set of contaminants were measured in blood and urine of 409 licensed anglers and 206 Burmese refugees and immigrants which included lead, cadmium, mercury, PCBs, PBDEs, organochlorine pesticides (hexachlorobenzene, mirex, DDT, DDE, and chlordane and its metabolites oxychlordane and trans-Nonachlor), and PFOS and PFOA.Biomonitoring results showed that both groups had higher geometric means for blood lead, total blood mercury, and serum PFOS compared to the 2013–2014 NHANES reference levels. The Burmese refugee group also showed higher geometric means for creatinine-adjusted urine mercury and lipid-adjusted serum DDE compared to national levels. Licensed angler participants reported eating a median of 16 locally caught fish meals in the past year. Burmese participants consumed local fish throughout the year, and most frequently in the summer (median 39 fish meals or 3 times a week).The study results provide valuable information on populations at high risk of exposure to contaminants in the Great Lakes Basin of western New York. The results provide the foundation for developing and implementing public health actions to reduce potential exposures to Great Lakes pollutants.
