摘要 1979 年,马萨诸塞州沃本市的八口市政井中的两口被发现受到多种氯化有机物的污染。不久之后,该镇被发现儿童白血病发病率升高。利用有关两口受污染井水的时空分布的最新信息,我们发现获得这些水与儿童白血病、围产期死亡(1970-1982)、五类先天异常中的两类以及九类儿童疾病中的两类的发病率之间存在正统计关联。我们发现与自然流产、低出生体重或其他类别的先天异常和儿童期疾病没有关联。本文讨论了这些结果以及与其解释相关的数据的其他特征。
Abstract In 1979, two of the eight municipal wells servicing Woburn, Massachusetts, were discovered to be contaminated with several chlorinated organics. Shortly afterwards, the town was found to have an elevated rate of childhood leukemia. Using recent information about the space—time distribution of water from the two contaminated wells, we find positive statistical associations between access to this water and the incidence rates of childhood leukemia, perinatal deaths (1970–1982), two of five categories of congenital anomalies, and two of nine categories of childhood disorders. We find no associations with spontaneous abortions, low birth weight, or the other categories of congenital anomalies and childhood disorders. This article discussed these results and other features of the data relevant to their interpretation.
