Selected aspects of the population health status in ecological hazard areas in comparison with ecologically "clean area". III. localisation of urban regions with high mortality from all and from the circulatory system diseases.

Abstract:

:Territorial localisation of urban regions with particularly high mortality from all diseases and from diseases of the circulatory system in males and females was the aim of the study. Altogether 177 urban regions within ecological hazard areas (EHAs) and 76 urban regions within reference area (RA) were subjected to evaluation. In the group of urban regions in which mortality rate from all diseases exceeded the value of arithmetic mean + 1/2 of standard deviation, 32 urban regions of EHA and 12 of them with RA were selected for assessing male mortality and 44 and 7, respectively, for assessing female mortality. Applying the same criteria 53 and 16 urban regions and 50 and 11 urban regions were identified because of mortality from diseases of the circulatory system in males and females, respectively. It was revealed that urban regions with the highest mortality rates were located in regions of the highest ecological hazard.
