Περίληψη:
Lead exposure of the child population was studied in three different
areas in Greece: Kalamata which is a rural area of Southern Greece;
Tavros, a district of Athens with a considerable industrial activity;
and Lavrion, a small city near Athens where a lead-zinc mining and
smelting industrial complex has existed for more than 90 years. The
results were evaluated with respect to a number of individual, social
and environmental variables (i.e. smelter, occupation of the father)
especially those concerning the area of Lavrion which is the most
heavily polluted area in Greece. The results of this study can be
considered as an index for the extent of the lead pollution problem in
the named areas of Greece.
