[Hygienic assessment of ambient air pollution in rural localities in the area exposed to effluents of the Orenburg gas-field complex].
A complex analysis suggests that there has been an increase in airogenic load on the population living in an area exposed to gas waste from the Orenburg gas-field complex at the expense of nitrogen dioxide, which may be associated with its higher levels in the waste from 1058.3 tons/year in 1996 to 2084.89 tons/year in 2000 and with the maximum effluent of 2550.79 tons/year in 1999. The study has revealed that the rural locality with the greatest aerogenic load is the village of Dedurovka.

[Influence of anthropogenic environmental factors on the occurrence of acute ischemic attacks in the population of an industrial town].
An analysis of the incidence of acute ischemic attacks (AIA) has shown its steady rise in the population of Orenburg in 1997-2000, men are 1.8 times more frequently ill than women with a relatively stable growth in both examined groups. Analyzing morbidity rates in age groups (under and above 50 years) has demonstrated a substantial increase in the incidence of AIA in the under 50-year group living in the Industrial District. The blood levels of essential trace elements in patients with AIA are lower than the normal values in the residents of the Industrial and Central Districts.
