摘要: Runcorn has been a site of chemical industry activity for over century, where tons toxic chemicals are released annually to air and water. Excess kidney disease mortality (nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, nephrosis) was found in the population living within 2 km industrial plants (standardised ratio (SMR) males 131 (95% CI 90 185) females 161 118 214)) compared reference (northwest England)).

The standardised admission (SAR) 115 107 124) 126 117 137) females; Warrington 91 85 97) 84 78 91) area as whole. excess risk requires further investigation.
